Calgary man sentenced for murdering girlfriend and 22-month-old daughter
CALGARY – A man who killed a woman and her infant daughter and buried them in a shallow grave west of Calgary is due to be sentenced this afternoon.
Robert Rimming, 37, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder of Jasmine Lovett, but is not guilty of the death of 22-month-old Aaliyah Sanderson.
He was found guilty of second-degree murder in the death of a child earlier this year.
Rimming must automatically serve life imprisonment for his second-degree murder conviction, but a Royal Court judge will decide whether he is eligible to apply for parole.
The family told the court they had been suffering from fear and pain since their loved ones were killed.
The mother and daughter were found in a shallow grave in Kananaskis Country, west of Calgary, in May 2019 after disappearing for weeks.
This report by the Canadian Press was first published on November 10, 2022.
