Woodstock Provincial Court: River de Chute man jailed for sex crimes

by | Nov 19, 2025

Over five years in prison for sex crimes

A River de Chute man was sentenced to federal prison on Nov. 18 for sex crimes that spanned several years.

Martin Sargefield, 31, appeared in provincial court in custody via video. Judge Karen Lee sentenced him to five years and six months in jail, minus 264 days spent in remand.

Sargefield was also ordered to register with the federal DNA database and the national sex offender registry for 20 years. He must have no contact with children under the age of 16 and is banned from working, volunteering or attending public places where children may be present. He had a minimal prior criminal record.

Judge Lee ordered Sargefield to seek counselling for sex offenders during his incarceration. He cannot have contact with his victim. A lifetime prohibition on weapons and firearms was also imposed.

Sargefield was charged by the RCMP with touching involving a female minor for a sexual purpose (indictable) between July 1, 2016, and July 22, 2022. He pleaded guilty and was remanded to jail on May 27 to await sentencing.

The court heard about a series of sexual acts involving the accused and the victim over a period of six years. The Crown withdrew two other charges.

The court heard details of a psychological assessment which indicated Sargefield was functionally illiterate. Defence Counsel Wanda Severns said this showed her client had a cognitive disability that should be taken into consideration during his sentencing. The court heard he also had difficulty with impulse control.

Judge Lee said the sexual abuse inflicted by Sargefield was sustained over a long period of time, and he tried to keep the abuse hidden, suggesting he was aware of his wrongdoing. When confronted by the police, he confessed and later expressed remorse during the court proceedings.
