A Prince George man will serve a further two years in jail followed by three years probation for sexually assaulting two women, one of them a sex-trade worker.
Aric Phillip Gourlin, 32, was issued the term Friday in B.C. Supreme Court for incidents that occurred in August and November 2009.
In one of those cases, Gourlin had picked up a prostitute with the intention of paying her for sex and drove her to his father's house, which was empty and up for sale, in a rural area outside Prince George, the court heard during a sentencing hearing.
Once at the home, he grabbed her by the hair and struck her.
Worried for her safety, she asked Gourlin to take her back to the city but he refused and demanded she have sex with him.
The woman submitted and when they were finished, Gourlin threatened to kill her if she went to the police.
He drove her back to Prince George in his truck but, while on a rural road near the intersection of Blackwater Road and Highway 16 West, Gourlin told her to get out and run away without looking at the vehicle's licence plate.
The woman ran to the nearest house and asked the homeowner to call police.
DNA matching Gourlin's was found on the victim and he pleaded guilty to one count of sexual assault.
In the other instance, Gourlin was found guilty of sexual assault and assault following a trial.
He had picked that woman up at the same location where he found the other victim but she has denied being a sex-trade worker.
The two were having protected consensual sex that she interrupted. Gourlin responded by striking her twice in the head and then forced her to have unprotected sex.
Gourlin received credit for 448 days time served and was sentenced to a further 649 days in jail.
