-- BRAMPTON -- Two teens convicted for their role in the ambush shooting death of a Brampton teenager were sentenced to one year in custody.**********
Now 18 and 19 years old, both were young offenders when Dwayne Lloyd, 17, was gunned down on May 24, 2005.
They were "active participants" but were not armed, court heard. The older of the two had a walkie-talkie the night of the killing, the younger was on a bicycle, and both acted as "scouts", warning their group of eight friends that Lloyd and his friends were approaching.
Two adults, Garfield Powell, 31, of Brampton and Ojore Carrington, 31, of Malton pleaded guilty to manslaughter in February. They were both handed six-year prison sentences for their roles.
FROM THE COMMENTS:
"4 years - mandatory release after two thirds of sentence."I stand corrected.
