Sandeson trial

The lawyer for William Sandeson gave his closing arguments to the jury yesterday at the first degree murder trial saying his client is not a criminal mastermind.  Eugene Tan agreed there was a violent incident in Sandeson’s apartment the night Taylor Samson disappeared but that other people were there.  He said there is lots of reasonable doubt and that the prosecution ignored or downplayed evidence that didn’t fit its theory of what happened.

The Crown will deliver its closing arguments today and the jury is expected to begin deliberations Thursday.
