Snooks Gets An Additional 3 Months In Jail

Former Saint John Common Councillor Donnie Snook gets an extra three months in jail on three sex charges stemming from when he was living in Newfoundland.

The jail time is in addition to the 18 year sentence he received in Saint John for crimes against children.

There were four charges originally but one was withdrawn because the victim was 14 at the time.

Snook's lawyer Dennis Boyle says his client's participation in this was minimal adding it was his first sexual experience as an adult.

The Crown wanted Snook to get a year for each of the new charges to which he pleaded guilty.
