The Crown’s urging a heavy sentence for the man who slashed his infant son’s throat.
The man, whose name is under a publication ban to protect the identity of the baby, has pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in last summer’s incident.
He told court Wednesday he’ll never forgive himself.
His defence lawyer Alain Hepner is asking for a jail sentence of less than two years, followed by probation, while the Crown is requesting six to seven years in prison.
A sentence is expected at the end of August.
