A man who was charged in the death of Boyd Firingstoney was sentenced to nine years in prison after pleading guilty to manslaughter recently.
Javon Moosomin, 24, was originally charged with second degree murder. He instead pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter at the Court of King’s Bench in Battleford on Dec. 7, 2023. Crown prosecutor David Piche confirmed Moosomin was arrested on Dec. 17, 2021. As a result, Moosomin will receive a sentence of nine years less enhanced credit for time served.
Police previously reported they were alerted to a shooting on the 1200 block of 108 Street in North Battleford at 1:45 a.m. on Oct. 21, 2021, where a 33-year-old man, Boyd Firingstoney, was declared deceased at the scene.
