Johnson’s sentencing is set for October. The judge noted aggravating factors including weapon use and Tjaveondja’s attempt to flee, while also acknowledging Cardinal’s troubled past — marked by abuse and addiction — as context, not excuse. In a moment of accountability, Cardinal spoke of his efforts to reform behind bars, as the court honored Tjaveondja’s life and legacy.
