A man convicted of beating a White Rock businessman with a pipe wrench has been sentenced to more than three years in jail for the crime. Darryl Gordon Brown was sentenced Friday (Feb. 6) in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster, 5½ years after the brutal assault on Fred Edrissi. Edrissi and his wife, Sabine – who live in South Surrey – received news of the threeyear, 27-day penalty shortly after it was imposed. “I think we can put this case to rest now,” Sabine told Peace Arch News by email that afternoon. “After five years, we are… glad that this has come to an end. “It is good to know that he won’t be around for a while.” Brown was convicted in Fred Edrissi November 2013 of aggraassault victim vated assault and assault with a weapon, in connection with the Aug. 1, 2009 incident. It occurred in South Surrey, on property in the 16500-block of 32 Avenue. During trial, the court heard that Brown’s attack landed Edrissi in hospital with broken bones and lacerations. Judge Robert Crawford heard from Brown, Edrissi, Brown’s former wife and other witnesses, before dismissing Brown’s claim that he had acted in self-defence. “It is apparent that there was a beating of several minutes, eventually reducing Mr. Edrissi to crawling underneath the tenant’s motor vehicle,” Crawford said in finding Brown guilty of the two counts in November 2013. Edrissi had testified that Brown – a mechanic who had agreed to do some work on Edrissi’s minivan – had attacked him from behind with a hammer and a pipe wrench as Edrissi attempted to fix a grinder that Brown was having trouble with. Brown demanded Edrissi’s money, then i see page 4

The team travelled back to B.C. Tuesday. They’ll be on the road again in a few months, however, as they prepare to compete on the world stage. As Canadian champs, the students have now qualified for an even bigger event – the World Cup of Reading, which is set for Connecticut in July. “The students are absolutely shocked and thrilled… and excited to represent Canada in the Worlds,” Southridge teacher Joyce Chong, the team’s coach, told Peace Arch News. “I don’t think it’s quite sunk in for them yet. They just keep looking at me and saying ‘I can’t believe we won.’” Kids’ Lit Quiz is an annual literary tournament aimed at promoting reading among elementary-school students. Southridge advanced to the nationals after winning the provincial Kids’ Lit Quiz on Jan. 23 i see page 4
