Man who used Facebook to lure teen to death gets 60 years
By ALANNA DURKIN, Associated Press | May 8, 2015 | Updated: May 8, 2015 3:28pm





BANGOR, Maine (AP) — As another Mother's Day approaches — the last day of 15-year-old Nichole Cable's life — her grandmother is bracing for what should be a day of celebration but what is instead an unbearable reminder of what she lost two years ago.

"I try to prepare, but there is no preparation to support this pain," Phyllis Engstrom said in a statement read by Nichole's cousin in a Maine court Friday. "It will never be the same."

Her granddaughter's killer, Kyle Dube, was sentenced to 60 years in prison after Nichole's family and friends urged the judge through tears to show him no mercy.

The prosecutor said Dube abducted Nichole to have sex with her after arranging a meeting outside her Glenburn home by posing as someone else using a fake Facebook profile. She said Dube killed her when Nichole resisted.

glad he was sentenced to die in prison, at the least. Some people there may not like the fact this coward killed a 15 year old girl because she wouldn't have sex with him. Die!!!!! Hard!!!!!

Hell, with good behavior and parole standards, this asshole could actually be out walking the streets again in his 40's.

Fuck that. He should have been sentenced to life without any parole.

that after 20 or 25 years, every 5 or 10 years thereafter, they have to argue why Nichole's vicious murder warrants keeping the perpetrator behind bars ... the facts of the crime seem to warrant that in spades.

Yeah, he should've gotten prison for the rest of his natural days, but I'm still heartened when I see the tables turned on a prick like this. Now young Kyle is the powerless one. Eat it, Kyle.
