Only sentences that involved a large fine, probation or incarceration are included. Brandan Akers-Wright, 24, was convicted of having contraband tobacco and marijuana inside Joyceville Institution beyond the visitors area in late December 2019 — a violation of the Corrections and Conditional Release Act. He had 60 days added to his existing sentence. Justice Alison Wheeler was told that the behaviour of Akers-Wright and his then girlfriend drew the attention of correctional staff at the prison during a visit a couple of days before Christmas 2019. Federal Crown prosecutor Jordan Tekenos-Levy said both Akers-Wright and the woman were observed making movements that appeared to be attempts to conceal something or remove something from concealment on their persons. He told the judge that correctional officers later seized 23.66 grams of marijuana and 10.03 grams of tobacco from Akers-Wright and estimated it would have had a combined value of about $3,300 on the prison’s underground market.
