Update: Sagmoen sentenced to ‘time served’ after being found guilty on three charges

VERNON, B.C. — A man who approached a sex trade worker with a gun near Falkland two years ago, has been sentenced to time served plus 36 months of probation.

Curtis Sagmoen, 39, was found guilty in B.C. Supreme Court in Vernon Friday of three charges: disguising his face with intent to commit an offence, for using a firearm while committing an indictable offence, and for possession of a controlled substance.

He was found not guilty of two other offences: uttering threats and intentionally discharging a firearm.

The Crown and defence put forward a joint sentencing submission of two years less a day which was accepted by Justice Alison Beames.
