Hannah Leflar’s family speaks as sentencing hearing ends
After two weeks of testimony and two weeks of tears for the family of Hannah Leflar, the sentencing hearing for the teen who killed her has wrapped up.
“It’s been really disgusting and really hard to listen to,” said Hannah’s mother, Janet Leflar, outside Court of Queen’s Bench in Regina. “Every time we walk into court the scab gets ripped off again so how do we grieve? I need to grieve for my daughter and I can’t because we keep getting pulled back in.”
The final day of the hearing included a first. Taking a long pause and a deep breath, Hannah’s killer spoke out for the first time in court.
“I cannot apologize enough. I’m sorry and I regret it,” he said.
