Overview
- Ethan Davis, 24, faced a sentencing hearing after pleading guilty to stalking, using a carriage service to menace, possessing a prohibited drug, and detaining a person to obtain advantage.
- Addressing the court, Davis told his former partner he was truly sorry and accepted full accountability, while her victim impact statement noted she has PTSD and hopes he receives help.
- Defence lawyers urged a community-based order citing ongoing treatment, a five-year apprehended violence order and a positive risk assessment, as prosecutors pressed for custody over the seriousness and escalation of the offending.
- Court documents detail more than 200 calls, a one-cent bank transfer labeled "answer your phone," and an abduction in which Davis wore latex gloves and forced the deletion of messages while armed with a multi-tool.
- The victim reported being followed home after the incident and notified police the next morning, with sentencing expected on September 2.
