A homeless man who trashed the Fredericton Public Library downtown last fall, causing tens of thousands of dollars in damage, was sentenced to four years in prison Thursday.
Kelly Gordon Kleim, 30, of no fixed address, previously pleaded guilty to several crimes he committed in September, chief among them a destructive break-in at the library’s main branch.
He was back in Fredericton provincial court Thursday - in person and in custody - for his sentencing hearing.
