A second appeal of Jarrod Bacon’s prison sentence for conspiracy to traffic cocaine.
The notorious member of the red scorpion gang was sentenced to 12 years back in may. But he received credit for time already served — bringing it down to 7 years, two months.
Crown Counsel said that wasn’t not enough.
They had been seeking 21 years, so they appealed.
Now, Bacon wants to appeal too, saying the sentence is too much.
A hearing had been set for later this month, but his defense lawyer has asked for more time to prepare.
He did not provide further details in court.
A new date has been set for mid-January.
