A man convicted of murdering a 13-year-old British Columbia girl stuck his fingers in his ears during a victim impact statement by the girl's father, who said he contemplated suicide after being told of her death.
The family of the girl killed by Ibrahim Ali told the B.C. Supreme Court sentencing hearing of their overwhelming grief, with her father saying he bashed his head against a wall until he was streaming with blood.
The girl's brother had earlier told the hearing that his mother was "utterly destroyed" by the girl's death, and that he was haunted by his final text messages to her, when he said he was unkind.
