A Halifax man who has spent almost half his life behind bars for committing violent offences has been declared a dangerous offender and locked up indefinitely.
Christopher Edward Newhook, 40, appeared in Halifax provincial court Monday for the judge's decision on a dangerous-offender application.
The Crown launched the application in 2007 after Newhook pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and possession of a knife.
