Summary
Police and the courts were remarkably lenient with Adair especially considering his history of recidivism with thefts, frauds and assaults.
Detail
🛈 This isn't finished. This incomplete version of this page has been uploaded as a "placeholder".
There is more to this story, much of it available online with the lisamarieyoung.ca search page, or within Lisa's Wikipedia page, the 100's of media articles and dozens of privately-produced podcasts discussing Lisa's "disappearance".
Generally, when a person is convicted of a crime, serves the sentence, and then commits the same (or similar) crime again, the punishment becomes more severe.
Two months before meeting Lisa, Adair was released from jail where he'd spent 10 months for Theft and Assault.[1]
| Offense committed | Conviction | Sentence | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| pre-2000 | Assault(s) in Alberta | pre-2000 | Assault(s) | (unknown) | |
| Apr 24, 2000 | Credit Card Fraud | Mar 13, 2002 | Credit Card Fraud | Fine $500 | |
| Apr 27, 2001 | Fraud x 2 | Oct 10, 2001 | Fraud x 2 | Jail 9 months | |
| Oct 3, 2001 | Assault (in Fraud trial) | Apr 10, 2002 | Assault | Jail 1 month | |
| Jun 27, 2001 | Theft | Jul 24, 2002 | Theft | CSO 90 days → 40 days Jail | |
| Jun 27, 2001 | Fraud | Fraud disappears | no punishment | ||
| Aug 23, 2002 | Assault of Peace Officer | Oct 11, 2002 | Assault of Peace Officer | Jail 1 day | |
| Aug 23, 2002 | Breach of CSO | Breach disappears | no punishment | ||
After Adair's fraud charge disappeared, the remaining charge of Theft earned him a sentence of only a 3-month CSO despite a long list of related prior convictions & incarcerations.[1]
A CSO is a "Conditional Sentence Order". All CSO's have 2 mandatory conditions:[2]
- "Keep the peace" (meaning, "don't break any more laws"), and,
- Don't leave the province.
However, 30 days into the 90-day order, he broke both of those conditions when he assaulted a police officer in Saskatchewan.[1][3][4] He was sentenced to 1 day in jail.[1]
