CALGARY- The Crown is seeking a sentence of 12 to 15 years for a Calgary man convicted of killing his five-year-old grandson.

The defence is suggesting six to eight years in prison.

Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Richard Neufeld found Allan Perdomo Lopez guilty last month of manslaughter.

Court heard that the boy, Emilio Perdomo, was sent to Canada from Mexico in 2015 so he could have a better life.

But five months after his arrival in Calgary, Emilio was taken hospital unconscious with a traumatic brain injury.
