Man convicted of five counts of second-degree murder in drug house shootings

A jury has convicted Jamie Felix of five counts of second-degree murder for the fatal shooting of five individuals at a Winnipeg rooming house in November 2023. The victims included Melelek Leseri Lesikel, Dylan Maxwell Lavallee, Shawn Marko, and sisters Crystal and Stephanie Beardy. Despite Felix’s defense claiming he was manipulated by his late father, the jury found him guilty after hearing evidence of his actions and confessions following the incident. Felix now faces a mandatory life sentence, with parole eligibility after 10 years.
