Competency hearing into three deaths

Lawyers were in court yesterday arguing before a judge that Codey Hennigar should not be held criminally responsible for killing his mother and grandparents in their home in Wyse’s Corner in January last year. He hit them all in the head and then set fire to the house.

Both Crown and Defence lawyers agree Hennigar is not criminally responsible for three counts of second degree murder but they have to convince the judge of that as well.
