25-year-old sentenced to 3½ years in prison for fatal 2021 Whistler stabbing
A 25-year-old man was sentenced this week to three and a half years in prison after he pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the fatal stabbing of another man outside a Whistler, B.C., bistro in 2021. Investigators say the attack happened in the early hours of Aug. 14, 2021, outside the Bearfoot Bistro in Whistler Village. The victim, 26-year-old Henry Stanley Garcia Molina, was taken to a local medical clinic but died of his injuries. The following summer, Dedaar Jhooty of Delta, B.C., was arrested and charged with manslaughter in connection with the stabbing. He was 22 years old at the time of the attack. He pleaded guilty to the charge on July 16, 2024. On Tuesday, he was sentenced to three and a half years in prison, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said. Jhooty also has a court imposed DNA order, and a lifetime firearms prohibition. "Mr. Garcia Molina had his whole life ahead of him, which was taken away due to a senseless act of violence," Sgt.

Man killed in police-involved shooting at Surrey, B.C., home where woman found dead
B.C.'s police watchdog is investigating the death of a man following an officer-involved shooting at a Surrey, B.C., home on Monday night, while homicide investigators look into the death of a woman found at the scene of the shooting. In a news release, the Independent Investigations Office of B.C. (IIO) says Surrey RCMP officers responded to reports of an assault at a home near 66A Avenue and 195 Street in Surrey's Clayton Heights neighbourhood around 8:30 p.m. PT on July 7. When police entered the home, they found a man with a weapon. The ensuing interaction led to an officer shooting the man, who died despite aid from police and paramedics, investigators say. Police subsequently found a woman dead inside the home. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said the woman and man were a couple in their 60s who lived together. They say initial evidence indicates this was a case of intimate partner violence. The IIO is investigating the death of the man, while IHIT is investigating the woman's death. The IIO is called in any time a police-involved incident results in serious harm or death. Both the RCMP and Surrey Police Service officers are active in Surrey as it transitions from the RCMP to an independent police force.
