Law360 Canada ( July 22, 2022, 6:30 AM EDT) -- Appeal by Stack from his conviction for two counts of internet child luring, one count of breach of recognizance and one count of breach of undertaking, raising defence of entrapment. Stack also applied for leave to appeal sentence. Stack was apprehended because of an undercover police sting operation on a social media app known as Grindr. An investigating officer posted a profile on the app consisting of the name “Justin” and a photograph of a young male taken from the rear. The profile did not include an age, but the website required users be at least 17 years old. After posting the profile, the investigating officer received a message from Matthew 51. The investigating officer posing as Justin replied, informing Matthew 51 that he was 14 years old. After some chats about the possibility of sexual activity, Matthew 51 arranged to meet Justin. Stack attended at the proposed meeting and was apprehended by the police. The trial judge found that Stack was Matthew 51 and that Stack believed the investigating officer’s representation that he was speaking to a 14-year-old boy based on the content of the chats. On behalf of Stack, duty counsel raised the issue of entrapment. Entrapment was not raised at trial....
