Forcillo challenging mandatory sentence in Sammy Yatim shooting

The lawyer for a Toronto police officer found guilty of attempted murder in the shooting death of a teenager says injuries the victim suffered from a second round of bullets should not be a significant aggravating factor in determining the officer's sentence.

Sammy Yatim was already dying from wounds caused by the first volley of bullets legally fired by Const. James Forcillo, lawyer Peter Brauti said Wednesday during the officer's sentencing hearing.
