One of Brett Wiese's killers has had her sentence reduced by the Alberta Court of Appeal and will spend just four years behind bars. The Court of Appeal imposed a youth sentence on Wednesday of four years in custody and three years of community supervision. "The maximum youth sentence without credit for pre-sentence custody is sufficient to hold the appellant accountable for her offending behaviour," wrote Justice Ronald Berger in his decision. The majority opinion concluded JFR's sentence should be reduced with Justice Brian O'Ferrell dissenting, saying he would have upheld the original sentence. He was handed a life sentence with no parole for at least 12 years.
