This story says his sentence was reduced to 7 years because of this age. But I read it was reduced because he's native.

Meanwhile theres another story here about a guy who was 17 when he shot and paralyzed somebody. How is his crime worth double the time of the killer in this story?

Find it yourself. I would get info like this from the Vancouver Sun.

If you are going to make a statement, have the testicular fortitude to back it up.

yup, the article states that pratt was aboriginal. I guess that means you jumped on andyt for no reason.

Not at all! He made a statement, and I requested a link to back-up that statement. Instead, he as much as told me to go pound sand!

Fixed it.

$1:

The B.C. Court of Appeal found that his youth and aboriginal background should have been given more consideration in the original sentence

I wasn't telling you to pound sand. I was stating what I'd read somewhere, and since I didn't right off the bat recall when/where, I wasn't going to go looking for it just to make you happy. I didn't actually read it in the story Hyak provided, but in the ongoing reporting of the case - ie much earlier. Around here this story made a big splash - some poor guy being dragged to his death, and the kid bragging about it afterward.

But I can do it now - go pound sand.

It's typical. Aboriginals get lighter sentences or no sentences because of their race in a number of cases. But yet a good upstanding black woman has a vehicular accident which kills 2 people who are Aboriginal and suddenly the justice system is racist (I've read a Aboriginal forum elsewhere).

Actually, now that I think of it, I agree. Our Canadian justice system is racist.
