A man found guilty of manslaughter last year in the 2013 death of Matthew Sudds in Halifax has been declared a dangerous offender.

A jury found Ricardo Jerrel Whynder guilty last May.

His co-accused, Devin Tyson Glasgow, was tried earlier that year on a charge of first-degree murder. A jury convicted him of second-degree murder.

Sudds was killed by a single gunshot wound to the head. His body was found along the side of Africville Road near Bedford Basin in Halifax.
