An Ottawa man who is already serving a life sentence for murder pleaded guilty to manslaughter this week in connection with the death of an inmate at the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre three years ago.
Donald Musselman was sentenced to eight years in prison for his role in the beating death of Zakaria Sheek-Hussain, 27, at the Innes Road jail on Feb. 24, 2021.
At the time, Musselman was awaiting trail for second-degree murder in the June 7, 2019 shooting death of local hip-hop artist Markland Campbell.
Musselman was convicted of Campbell's murder in late 2023 and sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 12 years.
