Kirouac’s lawyer, William Beach, subsequently ordered a pre-sentence report. A pre-sentence report can take six-eight weeks to complete.

Facts in the case were not read in but will be at the sentencing hearing which is expected to take one-two hours.

As a result of the two guilty pleas, a third charge – exposure to a person under 18 – was withdrawn by the Crown.
