A man has been handed a life sentence in the killing of Luka Gordic outside a 7-Eleven in Whistler, B.C., almost four years ago. Family of the slain teen broke into loud applause and cheers when the sentence was announced in the Vancouver courtroom. Crown counsel Henry Reiner says Gordic case among the most disturbing in his career as his voice cracked talking to media outside court. Two other men who were found guilty of manslaughter in Gordic's death have been sentenced to 36 months of split custody and probation. Mitch Gordic arrives for sentencing of three males guilty in the Whistler killing of his son Luka in May 2015.
