A 19-year-old Courtenay man has been sentenced to seven years in prison for killing a man he believed had raped a 13-year-old girl. Clifford Frederick Martin pleaded guilty to manslaughter last week in connection with the death of Cory Headen, also 19, who was beaten with a baseball bat as he lay sleeping in his bed in September 2008.
