A Canadian court has handed contract killer Tanner Fox an additional 15-year prison sentence for a fatal shooting, adding to the life term he is already serving in another high-profile murder case. The latest punishment relates to the killing of Chad Colivas.
According to the available details, Fox was already in prison for the murder of a former suspect in the Air India Kanishka bombing case. That earlier conviction had already placed him among the most closely watched figures in a case tied to one of the deadliest terror investigations connected to Canada.
Police found Chad Colivas suffering from gunshot wounds at his home. Fox later pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the case, which involved a firearm, leading to the new 15-year sentence on top of his existing life sentence.
The ruling means Fox will continue to face severe prison time in Canada for two separate killings. The case also renews attention on the long-running legacy of the Air India bombing investigation and the violent criminal cases that have continued to surface around people linked to it.
