Teen sent for assessment

An 18-year-old boy charged with various sex offences involving children is finally heading to the Alberta Hospital for a psychiatric assessment. Justice Robert Kilpatrick ordered the assessment in June 2001 as part of the teen’s 14-month sentence.

This week — almost a year later — a space was made for him at the southern facility.

Kilpatrick recently raised concerns about releasing the youth before a treatment program is established. A program cannot be established until the assessment is complete. The teen is set to be released on Aug. 8. A 22-month probation period follows his release.
