Strong emotions in a Saint John courtroom at the sentencing hearing for 20-year-old Tyler Gamblin.
Gamblin pled guilty to a charge of manslaughter in January in the July 2020 death of 29-year-old Nathan Gallant.
Gamblin, who took part over the phone in recent hearings, was in the prison docket on Friday wearing a prison-issue orange jumpsuit and a mask.
On entering the prisoner’s box, he acknowledged family members in the front row of the gallery.
Nathan Gallant’s father, sister, grandmother and aunt were also in court and his mother, Diane Hachey, took part virtually.
