Former harm reduction worker sentenced for being accessory in fatal Leslieville shooting | CBC News
Briefly

Khalila Zara Mohammed, a former harm reduction worker, was sentenced to a conditional 529-day sentence for assisting a man involved in a fatal shooting. She pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact in the manslaughter of Karolina Huebner-Makurat, who was accidentally killed by a stray bullet during a nearby altercation. The judge noted her lack of violent history and successful rehabilitation, deciding her sentence could be carried out within the community with house arrest and service hours, highlighting a focus on rehabilitation over punishment.
"Ms. Mohammed has no history of violence and has been well-behaved and is on a strong rehabilitative track since the commission of the offence."
"I find that she presents a very low risk of re-offending, and I am thus satisfied that service of the sentence in the community would not endanger the safety of the community."
