The Crown had asked for between 17 and 19 years, while the defence said 14 years was more appropriate.

The trial heard that several Stampeders, including Hicks, had been celebrating a victory when a disagreement over a spilled drink in the bar intensified in a parking lot after closing time.

Hicks’ mother, Renee Hill, says she’s relieved by the sentence and can move on now that Lugela’s fate has been decided.
