In the death of Sagkeeng First Nation teen Serena McKay, the Crown is seeking an adult sentence for one of the teens accused.

The accused, who was 16 at the time, pleaded guilty to manslaughter and would get life in prison as an adult as opposed to a 3 year sentence as a youth.

The Crown didn’t seek an adult sentence for the second teen, who was 17 at the time, who pleaded guilty to 2nd degree murder and will receive up to a max of 7 years in prison.

The video showing the killing of Serena Mckay was circulated all over social media and it was reported she sustained 67 injuries during the beating.
