Mr. Speaker, as I understand it in committing an offence there may be a series of charges made regarding an incident or incidences. What I understand, in this case, I am not knowledgeable about the particular details, it is considered a first time offence. This is the first time this particular inmate was brought to trial, charged and convicted. This is a first time conviction possibly for only one charge, and possibly for a number of other ones.
