James Forcillo, convicted of attempted murder in the shooting of Sammy Yatim, still awaits a judge's decision on his sentencing. A sentencing hearing for Forcillo, the Toronto police officer convicted in the death of Yatim, is underway in Ontario Superior Court. The Crown has said Forcillo should go to prison for more than five years and a mandatory minimum sentence is reasonable for attempted murder. Yatim was shot to death on a stopped, empty streetcar on Dundas Street West near Bellwoods Avenue in Toronto. Forcillo was found guilty of attempted murder.
