N.S. man jailed for assaults on partner, mom
Judge denies defence request for community-based sentence for Kyle Clahane, 33
A former Fredericton resident who choked his former girlfriend last year and subsequently assaulted his mother saw his hopes to avoid a jail term dashed Tuesday.
Kyle Clahane, 33, formerly of Fredericton and more recently of Centerville, N.S., appeared in Fredericton provincial court for his sentencing hearing Tuesday.
He’d previously pleaded guilty to Feb. 21, 2023, counts of assaulting Sonia Levesque by choking her and unlawfully confining her, as well as June 14, 2023, charges of assaulting Margaret Ferguson, his mother, and thereby breaching the conditions of a release order to be of good behaviour.
