最新的报道，谢伦伯格在加拿大就已经多次因贩毒入狱，最早一次在2003年，因为藏毒被判入狱六个月。2012年再次因为贩毒运毒被捕，被判入狱两年，但最后只关了16个月零12天。当时厅上的法官曾经跟他说过一段语重心长的话。现在看起来让人感慨。“你的国家应该得到你更好的尊重，你生活在世界上最好的国家之一。”“你不是在利比亚或叙利亚被抓到。没有证据反映你小时候遭到过虐待，我能理解你可能有你的难处，但那些都是你要克服面对的事情。再说了，这总不能比在你18岁时就叫你去冲击朱诺海滩（诺曼底登陆）更难吧？” 6park.com

A B.C. judge told Robert Lloyd Schellenberg he was lucky to be living in Canada when he sent him to jail for drug trafficking in 2012. 6park.com
As the Abbotsford man faces the death penalty in China, Justice Neill Brown's admonition now reads like a chilling warning. 6park.com
"Your country deserves much better from you. You are in one of the best places in the world to live," Brown said as he sentenced Schellenberg in B.C. Supreme Court in Chilliwack.  6park.com
"You are not caught up in Libya or Syria; I do not have evidence of any abuse in your childhood and I accept that you have your own struggles to deal with, but you have to confront those. After all, it's not as if you are 18, and having to storm Juno Beach." 6park.com
The journey that carried Schellenberg from that courtroom in the Lower Mainland's Fraser Valley to the centre of an international story is detailed, in part, in court documents obtained by CBC News.  6park.com
Trudeau accuses China of 'arbitrarily' applying death sentence in Canadian case 6park.com
The 36-year-old was sentenced to death Monday in the Dalian People's Court in China's northeast province of Liaoning. 6park.com
The ruling came after a sudden retrial of a 15-year sentence for allegedly conspiring with others to smuggle 222 kilograms of methamphetamine from China to Australia in 2014。 6park.com
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau condemned the sentence, which comes amid speculation Schellenberg is one of several Canadians whose fates are enmeshed in a battle between Canada and China over extradition proceedings for Huawei chief financial officer Meng Wanzhoucurrently underway in Vancouver. 6park.com

Brown sentenced Schellenberg to two years in 2012 for possession of both cocaine and heroin for the purpose of trafficking as well as simple possession of cannabis resin and methamphetamine. 6park.com
Because of time served, Schellenberg's ultimate sentence was 16 months and 12 days. 6park.com
'Do not ever underestimate the seriousness'
Schellenberg pleaded guilty to all four counts, which came about as a result of an investigation into a high-volume drug sales operation that saw his apartment in Abbotsford used as a "distribution centre." 6park.com
According to the reasons for sentence, Schellenberg was on probation at the time that police raided his fourth-floor apartment, seizing $6,080 worth of cocaine and heroin as well as $3,205 in cash from pill profits. 6park.com
The judge said Schellenberg was not considered to have been at the "lower rung" of the operation. 6park.com
His criminal record dates back to February 2003, when he received a six-month sentence for possession for the purpose of trafficking。 6park.com
At the time Brown sent him to jail, Schellenberg was struggling with addiction. 6park.com
"He had a work-related accident in which he injured his femur," Brown said. "At the time of his arrest, indeed, he was wearing a cast, and apparently because of his injury, was abusing pain medications." 6park.com
The judge noted that Schellenberg's father "had turned his back on him because of his criminal history although he still has the support of some family members." 6park.com
"You are fortunate that you have some family members supporting you," the judge said. "Do not ever underestimate the seriousness of this kind of an offence." 6park.com
At the time of his sentencing in 2012, Schellenberg's lawyer told the court he was "deeply ashamed, worried about his father and any embarrassment that he is experiencing in the community." 6park.com
