A Summerland man was found guilty of assault after a judge dismissed his version of the situation as 91裸聊视频渇antastical.91裸聊视频�
Garret Cole Sedawie was deemed guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in Penticton court on June 3 of assaulting another man in Summerland on Nov. 26, 2021.
On that day, he encountered his victim and tossed him to the ground.
The exact manner in which his victim was sent to the ground was disputed, as the victim described it as both a 91裸聊视频減ower bomb91裸聊视频� and 91裸聊视频渓eg sweep,91裸聊视频� but that piece of semantics didn91裸聊视频檛 change the overall facts.
In addition to the victim91裸聊视频檚 testimony, including a statement given to police the day after the incident, photographs of the scrapes to the victims knees and his dislocated finger were entered into Crown91裸聊视频檚 evidence.
Testimony from the RCMP did state that no witness was ever found for the incident.
However, Sedawie91裸聊视频檚 testimony and proposed explanation for the event was dismissed by the judge.
Sedawie had claimed that he was nowhere near his victim, and that the victim had been so focused on glaring at him that he tripped and fell, injuring himself.
91裸聊视频淢r. Sedawie91裸聊视频檚 evidence was convoluted and often non-responsive to the questions asked of him,91裸聊视频� said the judge. 91裸聊视频淗is evidence was sometimes hard to follow but very detailed and sometimes his evidence didn91裸聊视频檛 make sense.91裸聊视频�
In addition to the testimony from Sedawie being convoluted, the judge also found that Sedawie had gone into rants accusing others of conspiracies. This testimony has derailed a different assault case against Sedawie that is now awaiting an assessment of his fitness to stand trial.
91裸聊视频淗e made serious allegations against the complainant, his ex-girlfriend, his family members, a lawyer and many police officers,91裸聊视频� said the judge.
91裸聊视频淚 agree with the crown91裸聊视频檚 submission that Mr. Sedawie91裸聊视频檚 claims were fantastical and lacked any ring of truth.91裸聊视频�
Sentencing for Sedawie will take place at a later, currently unset date.
The judge ordered a separate psychiatric report to be done in addition to the pre-sentencing report.
