Cecilia's killer to serve at least 13 years

-- Convicted child killer Min Chen will spend at least the next 13 years in prison before he can even think about applying for parole for murdering Toronto schoolgirl Cecilia Zhang.

"This was not an accidental killing in the course of a bungled kidnapping," Justice Bruce Durno told a Brampton courtroom Friday morning before setting Chen's parole ineligibility at 15 years. "He meant to cause her bodily harm." --

-- Chen admitted he broke into the family's Whitehorn Cres. home through a kitchen window in the early hours of Oct. 20, 2003 with the intention of kidnapping the young girl and then holding her for ransom, money that he intended to use for a sham marriage so he could remain in Canada. --
