An Australian has court sentenced Vincent Martin Crowe to 17 years in prison for the murder of Kenyon “Kenny” Meyler.
The 35-year-old admitted to the stabbing but told the court he could not remember the events of the party, as he had been drinking alcohol and taking the drug mephedrone.
Last Friday, following a retrial, a jury found him guilty of Meyler’s murder.
During the sentencing, the victim’s mother, Melanie Meyler, said: “I am lost without Kenny. A part of me left with my son. My world fell apart.”
