The father of a teen who was stabbed in the heart during a fight at a nighttime campground party in Saskatchewan almost two decades ago says justice has been served.

Lorne Pavelick’s comments come after a jury convicted a man of second-degree murder Friday in the killing of his son, Misha Pavelick .

“I’m not saying my son was an angel over there, (but) … I know for a fact that he didn’t go out there to die that night,” Lorne Pavelick told reporters outside court in Regina.

Misha Pavelick was 19 when he was killed in the fight involving multiple people near Regina Beach, northwest of Regina, in May 2006 during a long weekend high school party.

The accused, in his 30s, can’t be identified because he was a young offender at the time of the attack.
