Not guilty verdict in Python trial

Jean-Claude Savoie has been found not guilty of criminal negligence causing death.  The jury deliberated for about eight hours before acquitting the 40-year-old, who was charged in the 2013 deaths of Campbellton brothers Connor and Noah Barthe.  Lawyer Les Matchim is unhappy with how the RCMP handled it, saying they put in writing that Savoie wouldn’t be charged early in the investigation.
