‘Violence in jails is a big concern’: judge doubles suggested sentence for offender
One of the men involved in a three-on-one attack at Prince Albert Correctional Centre last December, was on the receiving end of a Prince Albert judge’s rebuke Tuesday morning.
Dallas Fulton, 23, pleaded guilty to a charge of assault and his legal aid lawyer suggested a sentence of 45 to 60 days in jail. Prior to the Dec. 23 incident, Fulton was scheduled for release Jan. 20.
“Violence in jails is a big concern,” Judge Felicia Daunt said, handing Fulton a four-month sentence instead with 24 days credit for his time spent in remand.
The victim in the assault was not seriously hurt, and managed to run from his attackers. He was released from custody days later as part of his own sentence.
