PRINCE ALBERT, Sask. — A former Mountie convicted of killing his former lover in a park was sentenced Tuesday to 11 years in prison.
"In one sense, this case is as near to murder as it can get, but on the other it was also near to self-defence,” Justice Gary Meschishnick said in his sentencing decision for Bernie Herman.
Bernie Herman, 55, was convicted in January of manslaughter in the death of 26-year-old Braden Herman. The two men aren't related. The officer's wife kicked Braden Herman out of the home in 2019, but the two men continued to meet up for sex. He also noted the officer's actions fomented an environment for further violence and, for that reason, required a longer sentence.
