In a joint submission from the Crown and defence, 72-year-old Margarita Citron, who was convicted of careless driving under the Motor Vehicle Act, was sentenced to a six-month driving prohibition and a $2,000 fine. “We are absolutely heartbroken at what can only be a woefully inadequate penalty for killing my nephew,” Kaydence’s aunt Sherri Edwards told CHEK News in a statement. “It was read into court today that the lights were flashing for at least 5 seconds. Another car had come to a complete stop, and there was no attempt to brake or even slow down when she hit him.”“There is no justice since BC NDP signed with ICBC with no-fault insurance in May 2021,” said Crystal Bourque, Kaydence’s mom.
