In an audio recording, the boy told a police officer that Bowman put a needle into his hand so that his “pee-pee could go all the way into my bum.”

The boy couldn’t say what was inside the needle, only that it made his knees wobbly and voice different. Bowman had told an undercover officer, who he thought was a like-minded predator, that they could abuse the boy by “slamming” him with methamphetamine and “take turns on him all night.”

Bowman pleaded guilty last year to administering a stupefying drug in the commission of a sexual assault, as well as aggravated sexual assault, arranging to commit a sexual offence against a child and distributing and making child pornography.

The Crown has ordered a dangerous offender assessment — the first step in determining whether Bowman will be sentenced as a dangerous offender, which could lead to an indefinite prison term.
