THUNDER BAY — The man convicted of manslaughter in the 2018 death of 17-year-old Braiden Jacob has been sentenced to five years and four months, but with credit for pre-sentence custody, he has just under two years left to serve.
After the group was evicted from the hotel due to a window being broken, Yellowhead and Jacob were recorded on video surveillance leaving together. Witnesses also observed them walking toward the Limbrick Street area. Further forensic evidence was presented at the trial, including blood-like staining with a DNA profile matching Jacob being found on a backpack Yellowhead was seen wearing and on the door frame of a Limbrick Street residence where he stayed the night of Dec. 6, 2018.
Warkentin said she took several aggravating and mitigating factors into consideration when determining her sentence. The mitigating factors taken into consideration include Yellowhead being a youthful Indigenous offender and the impacts of the residential school system on his family and home community of Eabametoong First Nation as outlined in a Gladue and pre-sentence report.
