I am glad that many have heard of this case...because without exposure...it would have been kept quiet...crossing my fingers and HOPING FOR A GOOD RESULT...
jac I don't think anyone wants an ignorant person on the jury...people are biased despite being instructed not to...on that note...the full story hasn't been heard...his story...an error that needs to be corrected...if his story and other evidence is heard and he is still convicted...I could live with it...look up David Milgaard...he was wrongfully convicted...it does happen!!...not a perfect system but we do need to take it seriously...the juror's job is tough and sometimes the evidence presented is flawed...
Just wanted to share this information...the lawyer involved would not consider helping the accused if there was not strong enough evidence to suggest the punishment doesn't fit the crime...unfortunately legal euthanasia is a difficult concept to consider...his family played a role in his conviction without knowing he would be locked up for life...not taking the stand was a huge error in judgement...although lind is correct...compassion is not part of the decision of guilty or not guilty but what did not come out was his story...and the ability for the jury to see the man who displayed his grief at the loss and love for his wife...and the forensic evidence was not 100% correct...only he knows what had happened...
ken I think he deserves another kick at the can so to speak...justice was not served...the man was painted in the press so badly...hard to have a fair trial...
lind I think the jury was not savvy enough to question the evidence that the prosecution delivered...the burn on her hand and why it was there, and the angle of the gun that they suggested was caused by him and not the victim...not 100% accurate but good enough to convince the jury...my point is that it is worth granting him an appeal to find the truth...
jac Thanks for commenting here...appreciate your opinions...and thanks for the video...reasonable doubt is what I question in this case...the jury decided he killed his wife but I think people did not fully understand what went on...the evidence in my opinion was not convincing enough to imprison him for life...the lies added to his predicament...sad really...
dream Sometimes money is not a blessing...he is not a career criminal...what is the point to make him suffer a long term sentence?...no point...his family even agrees...he maybe at fault of aiding the act but not involved with the criminal intent of murder...
lind The judge had money and prestigious job...sometimes people like seeing people of that caliber penalized to demonstrate that the law is unbiased...the flaw here in this case was the prosecution's evidence that demonstrated he pulled the trigger...however that is now being disputed...the angle of the bullet entering and exiting her skull and the burn marks on her hand...he has only one hope to get his conviction appealed...
ken If he was a truly a bad person...he could have left her in a care home and walked away...but he didn't...he quit his job and looked after her...he loved her...irregardless of his affair...
Despite how the judicial system is set up (rules)...his actions were wrong but he is not a risk to society...his children asked him to lie...and he got life when if he told the truth...a lesser sentence would have been the outcome...
lind He was tried and convicted to life in prison...he is now in his seventies?...he will die in prison...lost all appeals...only hope now is to ask the government to step in...a quite well known Canadian lawyer is taking on his case...he has helped many wrongly imprisoned in Canada...
crazy He will not be out soon...that is why the government needs to be alerted...I have a interest in this situation...I really feel that this man is not guilty...he needs an appeal...
crazy yes...a stupid mistake...not a hardened criminal...does he deserve years in prison due to a mistake?...no!!...I am under the assumption that he did not kill his wife...but aided it...
