Two teenage girls receive probation for stabbing a homeless man in Toronto, amid privacy rights violations.

Two girls involved in the fatal stabbing of a homeless man, Kenneth Lee, in Toronto, have been sentenced to probation instead of further time in custody. One girl was found guilty of manslaughter and will serve two years of probation and participate in a community program, while the other, convicted of assault charges, will serve a year of probation. Both girls had their privacy rights violated through repeated strip searches, leading to their sentences being reduced. The case involves eight girls total, with two more facing trial for second-degree murder and the other two expected to be tried in May for similar charges.
