We don't have "murder 1" in Canada. Our term is "culpable homicide" and he was convicted of it. Ended up serving something like 12 years.

Correction: The Criminal Code now appears to contain the words "first degree murder" and you are correct, that isn't what he was charged with, or convicted of. I need to update my reading list.
