Edmonton man appealing sentence for crash that killed toddler granted bail
EDMONTON — An Edmonton man who is appealing his sentence to the Supreme Court for crashing his SUV onto a patio and killing a toddler has been granted bail.
Richard Suter, 62, was initially sentenced to four months in jail along with a 30-month driving suspension after he pleaded guilty to failing to provide a breath sample in a death.
The Alberta Court of Appeal raised the sentence to 26 months.
In January, the Supreme Court agreed to hear his appeal of the higher sentence.
