A judge in Canada has sentenced a man to 75 years imprisonment for shooting dead three Canadian mounted police officers and wounding two others. Lee Carter reports from Toronto. “As he sentenced Justin Bourque, the judge called his crime one of the worst in the history of Canada. It was also one of the heaviest sentences in the country's modern legal history. In addition to serving 75 years, Mr. Bourque had no chance of parole. It was on the 4th of June that Justin Bourque went on his shooting rampage in the normally quiet New Brunswick City of Monkton during which he opened fire on the officers. The city was locked down during the 28-hour manhunt. He pleaded guilty to the charges and appeared unrepentant in police interview, but later in court apologized to the victims' families.”
