Sentenced Nathan Fry to 25 years in prison without parole.

Sunday 5 October 2008


Sentenced Nathan Fry to 25 years in prison without parole.A jury found Mr. Fry, 20, guilty of five counts of first degree murder and one count of attempted murder.
In speaking to Mr. Fry after the jury delivered its verdict, Justice Ian Pitfield said he hardly knew where to begin.“Heinous and cruel do not seem to be adequate” words to describe the crime, Justice Pitfield said, adding that Mr. Fry seemed incapable of expressing any sympathy or remorse for what had happened to the victims.
Nathan Fry, 20, was found guilty Sunday of first-degree murder in the deaths of five people, including three children, in a house fire in May, 2006. (CTV) “The fire and explosion you caused resulted in the deaths of five innocent people and serious injury to someone you regarded as a friend,” the judge said.The judge said Mr. Fry's acts were “planned, deliberate, cruel and callous, depraved, vile and malevolent.”
The deaths were the result of an arson on May 15, 2006 that killed five people, including four members of the Etibako family, who had immigrated to Canada from the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1997.The crown alleged Mr. Fry set the fire to get back at Bolingo Etibako, who in conversations with police implicated Mr. Fry in two stabbings that took place near Sky Train stations in 2005 and for which Mr. Fry spent time in custody.In a videotaped conversation shown in court, Mr. Fry told a man he believed to be a crime boss – in fact an undercover police officer – how he bought gasoline, poured it in through a window of the Etibako home and used a propane torch to set the blaze.The videotaped conversation was the culmination of an extensive undercover operation designed to make Mr. Fry believe he was part of a criminal organization and that he needed to tell the boss about his problem with police in order to take part in a lucrative upcoming job with the gang.In court, Mr. Fry testified that he'd made up those details and was only telling the crime boss what Mr. Fry believed he wanted to hear. Defence lawyer Philip Riddell told jurors there were no witnesses or forensic evidence linking Mr. Fry to the crime.
The fire killed Adela Etibako, 39, and three of her children: Edita, 12, Benedicta, 9 and Stephane, 8. Seventeen-year-old Ashley Singh, Bolingo's girlfriend, was also killed
