Four men have pleaded guilty to manslaughter in connection with the death of a Pelican Narrows teen.
Seven individuals, including two youths, were initially charged with second-degree murder as a result of the beating death of Hilliard Sewap, Jr. in May of 2015.
Robbie Custer, Cody Custer, Trevor Charles and Brandon McCallum pleaded guilty to the lesser charge in a Prince Albert courtroom this afternoon on what was supposed to be the first day of their two-week trial.
Trevor Charles has been sentenced to five-and-a-half years less 1,374 days for time served and an additional two days for a victim surcharge, leaving him with 636 days left on his sentence.
Cody Custer was sentenced to two-and-a-half years less 660 days for time served, with an additional two days for a victim surcharge, leaving him with 254 days left on his sentence.
Robbie Custer was sentenced to two-and-a-half years less 182 days for time served. With an additional two days for a victim surcharge, he has 732 days left on his sentence.
Brandon McCallum was sentenced to two years less 219 days for time served. Including a victim surcharge of two days, he has 513 days remaining on his sentence.
A fifth man charged in the case, Marcus Sewap, previously pleaded guilty to manslaughter and will be sentenced in Pelican Narrows next month.
A trial for two youths connected to the incident is scheduled to begin in April.
