BROCKVILLE, Ont. — A 22-year-old Ontario man who ran over and killed a skateboarding teen with his truck, then moved the body to a skate park to make it look like a skateboarding accident, was sentenced Monday to two years less a day in jail.

Judge Kevin Phillips called Rusty Pearce’s decision that night on Sept. 1 “morally reprehensible.”

Friend Joseph Greer, 24, who was part of the conspiracy to move the boy’s body, was sentenced to 15 months in jail.

Pearce and Greer were partying together in the early morning hours when Pearce, driving an intoxicated Greer back to a party, ran over 16-year-old Aaron Stevenson, skateboarding home in Brockville, Ont.

Shaken, the pair continued to the party with Stevenson’s body in the cab of the truck, where it landed after impact. There, the men came up with a plan: Drive Stevenson’s body to an old skate park in town to make it look like a skateboarding mishap.

Pearce stayed behind with the body to phone 911 at 1:35 a.m., telling the operator he found a body while walking home.

“He’s, like, on the side of the road. I don’t know if he was drinking and passed out. I can’t look at that body,” Pearce said in the 911 call that was played for the court.

“I don’t really know what to do, ma’am.”

Neighbours, however, watched the scene unfold, and police soon learned a different story.

The pair later admitted to their crimes.

“This is a very sad case,” Phillips said before rendering the sentence in front of a courtroom packed with Stevenson’s family and friends.

Stevenson’s parents don’t think the sentence will serve as a deterrent.

“It’s incredibly crazy. It just tells people, if you’re drinking and you hit somebody, run. Because you’re going to get off,” father Willy Stevenson said.
