It has been more than two years since David Quach was shot to death outside a northeast Calgary home.
Quach, 27, was found lying on the driveway of the California Boulevard N.E. home on Aug. 26, 2015.
He died en route to hospital.
A few days later, Said Raed Abdulbaki was charged with second-degree murder in the case.
Alberta Justice confirmed that Abdulbaki pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in court on Wednesday.
He was handed the mandatory sentence of life in prison. His parole eligibility was set at 10 years.
