Cormier pleaded not guilty to kidnapping, forcible confinement, sexual assault, assault with a weapon, robbery and uttering death threats. But a jury convicted him of all six charges.
Cormier was arrested last March after a woman said she was abducted by him at knifepoint outside the Moncton mall where she worked. She said she was held against her will in his one-room basement apartment for 26 days. Cormier testified in his defence, saying the woman was an acquaintance who wanted to be with him and plotted with him to kill her husband.
