"Justin Bourque has been sentenced to serve 75 years in prison before he will be eligible to apply for parole for the June 4 shooting rampage that killed three RCMP officers and wounded two others in Moncton.
Judge David Smith of the Court of Queens Bench in New Brunswick delivered his precedent-setting ruling Friday after a sentencing hearing earlier this week during which Bourque apologized to the families of the Mounties he shot.
This has been difficult for everyone, Smith said, describing the shootings as one of the most horrific crime sprees to happen in Canada.
Bourques sentence is the harshest in Canada since the last executions in 1962."
