The man who threw gravel at Justin Trudeau during a federal election campaign stop in London, Ont., in 2021 was sentenced Monday to 90 days of house arrest and a year of probation.
Ontario court Justice Kevin McHugh said Shane Marshall’s actions were the “manifestation of mob mentality” that threatened Trudeau’s safety, and the safety and security of Canadians.
“His actions were anti-democratic and need to be denounced in the strongest terms,” McHugh said.
Marshall, 26, of St. Thomas, Ont., was originally charged with assault with a weapon, but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of common assault. He was charged for hurling stones at Trudeau on Sept.
