PICKTON APPEAL VERDICT TODAY

The Robert Pickton appeal verdict comes down today. We all need to brace ourselves since it is quite possible and very likely that the Court will grant a new trial.

Grounds for appeal include the trial judge Justice James Williams making an error in law. Unfortunately Justice Williams acknowledged this error in his charge to the jury.

Both the Crown and Defence have appealed so this does not look good.
