An Ottawa man will be sentenced Thursday in connection with the 2010 shooting death of 19 year old Michael Swan.
Sam Tsega was convicted of manslaughter as the mastermind behind a plot involving three Toronto men to rob Swan at his Moodie Drive home in the west end.
Swan was a small-time marjiuana dealer.
The crown wamts a term of 14 to 16 years saying, even though Tsega wasn't a participant in the killing, he had a high level of "moral blameworthiness" as the plot organizer.
The defence has asked for six to eight years, including a two-for-one credit for time already served in custody.
Kristopher McLellan, the shooter, was convicted of first-degree murder.
His two accomplices, Kyle Mullen and Dylon Barnett, were convicted of second-degree murder.
