A St. Stephen area man who murdered his mother has been sentenced to life with no parole for 14 years.
36 year old Matthew Linus Tucker shot his mother Dorothy in the head with a shotgun in her Oak Bay home two years ago and then buried her body in the woods. A jury found him guilty in November. Tucker insists he doesn’t remember doing it.
His uncle Linus Tucker doesn’t think the 14 years is enough. He doesn’t think his nephew should get out of prison ever.
A Teachers Union official is opposing the tentative deal with the province.
Paul Wozney, who was a candidate for leadership of the union says this agreement sends the wrong message about what the contract dispute was about. He doesn’t agree, for instance, with the provision giving teachers an extra two days off. Wozney says the dispute was meant to improve funding in classrooms and to support special needs students.
Teachers will vote on the tentative contract February 8th. They’ve already rejected two previous agreements.
