The lawyer for a man handed a seven-year sentence for robbery says he’ll be appealing the judge’s decision.
Brian Pfefferle, who’s representing Keith Napope, tells CTV News he’s filed a notice of appeal in the case.
Napope was handed the sentence after a jury in October found him guilty of robbery but not guilty of manslaughter. He had been accused in the death of Johnathon Keenatch-Lafond, who was stabbed to death three years ago.
The Crown, during the trial, referred to the killing as a robbery gone wrong.
Napope was charged with manslaughter and robbery nine months after Keenatch-Lafond died in November 2014.
