The Saanich Police Department (SPD) says more victims have come forward in the case of a man who secretly recorded hundreds of women and girls on Southern Vancouver Island.
Yin Yeung Derek Chan, 39, was sentenced to four and a half years in prison on Thursday after pleading guilty to multiple voyeurism-related charges.
A Vancouver-based lawyer said Chan’s sentence reflects the severity of the crimes.
“The maximum sentence you can receive is five years under the Criminal Code for a voyeurism offence,” criminal defence lawyer Kyla Lee told CTV News.
“So this tells the public that this case is very, very close to being one of the worst things that you could imagine in terms of a voyeurism offence.”
