Life sentence handed out to killer of Chilliwack, B.C., man
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says a man arrested for second-degree murder in January 2023 has been given a life sentence, without the chance of parole for 12 years, after the death of a man in Chilliwack, B.C. The sentence for Matthew Bauer was handed down Thursday after a jury in B.C. Supreme Court found him guilty in February, police said in a statement. Police say they were called to a Chilliwack home in December 2022 where 64-year-old Holbert Tew was found suffering from stab wounds. Tew died at the scene, the home where he lived. The homicide team took over the case and quickly identified Bauer as a suspect. Sgt. Freda Fong with IHIT says the attack on Tew was senseless and unprovoked, and their thoughts are with the family as the court proceedings come to an end.
