Robert Harris Lamb will spend a total of 12 years behind bars for killing another man during a rowdy party on Jan. 1, 2010 in Antigonish.
The 22-year-old was sentenced to a total of 14.5 years for manslaughter with concurrent sentences for five other charges stemming from his time in custody, which included assaulting a sheriff.
Including credit for time served, he will spend a total of 12 years in a federal penitentiary for his crimes.
Chief Justice Joseph Kennedy was firm with his wording during sentencing, pointing out that the three people that came from Halifax to the party, including Lamb, brought a gun and wore bulletproof body armour:
"This came to pass because a group of metro thugs brought their culture of violence to this small town. They turned a New Year's Eve party into a blood-soaked battleground," Kennedy said.
"There is something dramatically and seriously wrong with you," he said to Lamb.
Here's the kicker; the group from Halifax claimed they didn't want anything like this to happen. You bring firearms, bullet proof vests and use knives at a party in a town where you knew no one? Yeaaaaaaahhhhhh. I smell bullshit. Jon wasn't even the target. He was doing what any small town/country boy would do. He was sticking up for someone who was being beat up that night when he was stabbed.
With blue eyes and blond hair, he's going to make some real, "Close" friends in the clinker.
"C'mere pretty boy, daddy wants some spooning".
