Sentencing begins for three youths convicted in stabbing death of Luka Gordic

Sentencing begins Monday for three people convicted of killing a Burnaby teen in Whistler more than three years ago.

Two of the three youths were found guilty of manslaughter and the other of second-degree murder.

Luka Gordic was stabbed three times in a swarming incident over the May long weekend in 2015.

He suffered three stab wounds — including one to his heart, which was likely fatal — according to the Crown, during the trial of a fourth person involved in the case.

The entire incident likely lasted no longer than 30 seconds and was allegedly perpetrated by a group of eight to 15 young males.
