Confinement/Sexual Assault Could Have Been Avoided: Justice Critic

David James Leblanc
One of the suspects in the Lunenburg County confinement and sexual assault case in Upper Chelsea should have been outfitted with an electronic, ankle bracelet. That's the conclusion of the province's Liberal justice critic. Michel Samson says the alleged crime might not have even taken place if David James Leblanc had been wearing a court-mandated ankle bracelet to track his where-abouts.



The 47-year old Leblanc was on bail until a November court date on another sexual assault case. He was arrested in northern Ontario earlier this week after avoiding police for nearly a week. An alleged accomplice, 31-year-old Wayne Allan Cunningham is still being sought.
