Each of Moorhouse’s offences carries a mandatory minimum sentence of a year in jail, but defence lawyer Ian Hutchison says that would violate his client’s right under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms not to be subjected to cruel or unusual punishment. Lipton told The Chronicle Herald she has yet to finalize her sentencing position but will ask that Moorhouse get consecutive time for the two offences.According to the facts filed with the court, East Hants RCMP responded to a complaint in late January 2021 from a woman who found inappropriate messages on Moraga’s cellphone regarding her 14-year-old daughter.
