A Crown prosecutor has suggested a parole eligibility period of 12 to 15 years for a former Canadian Football League wide receiver convicted of the B次元官网网址渂rutalB次元官网网址� murder of his ex-girlfriend.

Brendan McCabe told a B.C. Supreme Court that Joshua Boden showed no remorse for the killing of the woman in the home that was a sanctuary for her and her three-year-old daughter.

Boden was found guilty last fall of second-degree murder in the death of 33-year-old Kimberly Hallgarth in Burnaby in 2009.

McCabe says Boden cleaned up the crime scene and tried to make the death seem accidental by scattering pills around HallgarthB次元官网网址檚 body and putting some in her mouth while she lay unconscious at the bottom of the stairs.

He says itB次元官网网址檚 not known how Hallgarth ended up at the bottom of the stairs in her Burnaby home but that BodenB次元官网网址檚 actions showed significant rage.

HallgarthB次元官网网址檚 family has described the woman as a bubbly and caring person who deeply loved being a mother to her daughter.
