A BC Supreme Court judge says she will hand down sentencing on July 7th for the man convicted of stabbing two young girls inside an Abbotsford high school killing one of them.
Gabriel Klein was convicted of second-degree murder in the death of 13-year-old Letisha Reimer and aggravated assault in the stabbing of her friend.
The murder conviction brings an automatic life sentence, but the judge must determine when Klein will be eligible for parole.
The defence told the court Klein should be eligible after 12 years, while the Crown says he should have to serve a minimum of 18 years.
