Now convicted sex offender is a bit of a blanket statement

He was convicted of sexual assault, and as such his name has been added to the sex offender registry. So I don't think it's an unfair generalization to call him a convicted sex offender.

He was not convicted of RAPE or child molestation...

Technically not, only because 'Rape' is no longer a term used in Canada's sexual assault laws. It was changed to 'sexual assault' in the early 1980s.

Denis Vranich, 31, the property owner and a manager at the Elixir Lounge and Nightclub, admits he cornered the 22-year-old woman and assaulted her on a back deck during a private, after-hours party WHILE INTOXICATED

Intoxication is not a legal defense for sexual assault, any more than it is a defense for driving while intoxicated.
Sorry to derail this thread but I felt strongly that those details had to be clarified.
