Term issued to Kayne Sabbe Penner for December 2012 death of April Johnson

A Vanderhoof man was sentenced Wednesday to a 23-month conditional sentence for the accidental but fatal shooting of his then fiancee nearly a decade ago.

In March 2017, Penner was found guilty of manslaughter with a firearm and, in September 2017, he was sentenced to the "mandatory minimum" for the offence of four years in prison. On Wednesday, Schultes said Penner was at fault for the incident but also noted a handful of mitigating factors in reaching his decision to issue a term of house arrest.

Schultes said it was "common ground" that Penner failed to assume the rifle was loaded, engage the safety mechanism, remove the magazine and control the direction of the muzzle.
