CBC is reporting that "A Hells Angels hitman serving life in prison for a double murder in Quebec has pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the deaths of a Hants County, N.S., couple nearly 26 years ago."
"Les Douglas Greenwood, 56, was headed to trial for the third time on charges of first-degree murder in the killings of Kirk Mersereau and Nancy Christensen in their Centre Burlington home in September 2000."
"But late last month, he pleaded guilty in Nova Scotia Supreme Court in Halifax to the lesser charges of manslaughter. Two days later, he was sentenced to 15 years on each charge, to be served concurrently, and the court ruled the time served since he has been in custody since Dec. 9, 2010."
I thought this was old but the date of the report is today. This was a big case back in the day.
