BC man admits to making repeated obscene phone calls

A Provincial Court judge ordered a man to undergo a psychiatric and risk assessment after he admitted Sept. 3 to making at least six obscene phone calls to a relative more than a year ago.

Joseph Neil Johnny pleaded guilty in Prince George before Judge Cassandra Malfair to the charge of making indecent communication.

Court heard that, during the phone calls over three weeks in August 2024, Johnny identified himself to the victim, told her that he was arousing himself, used her name and described sexual acts he wished to perform on her.

Malfair set Johnny’s next court date for Nov. 5.
