Oh hey, that thing that never happens happened again.
On Sunday, August 31, police and paramedics were called to a home near Crowland Avenue and York Street in Welland for a medical assistance call involving a young child. When emergency first responders arrived, they discovered the front door of the home showed signs of being forced open and the child was suffering from serious injuries.
Officers secured the scene and canvassed the neighbourhood shortly thereafter. Investigators say a witness came forward with surveillance video, and the suspect was quickly identified as Daniel Senecal.
The child's parents say the 25-year-old broke into their house sometime between 10 p.m. and 9 a.m. and had sexually assaulted their sleeping toddler.
Again, TODDLER.
The assault was the definition of savagery.
Senecal was taken into custody and charged with aggravated sexual assault on a child, assault, assault by choking, breaking and entering a home and sexual interference with a child. His young female victim has been transported out-of-region for advanced medical care, but she has been declared to be stable.
Senecal was released early from jail in March just 12 months into an 18-month sentence for sexually assaulting another young boy in the neighborhood in 2021.
He had reportedly interacted with the most recent victim before and was known to the family, despite Niagara Regional Police's claim that he was a stranger.
Senecal, who identifies as transgender and goes by "Dani," also enjoys posting memes like this:
Because Canada is insane, Senecal will be allowed to request housing in a women's prison.
While it is unclear when Senecal first began to identify as transgender, under the current laws in Ontario, he is allowed to request housing and accommodations on the basis of his self-declared ‘gender identity.'
I have nothing further to say without losing all objectivity as a reporter, so I will let others say it for me.
