In a criminal appeal, the appellant challenged a manslaughter conviction entered by the appellate court after setting aside an acquittal on that count at trial.
The central issue was whether the evidence permitted a finding that the accused knew a home invasion was about to occur when driving participants to the residence.
The Court held that the appellate disposition should stand and adopted the reasons of the Chief Justice of the provincial court of appeal.
The conviction for manslaughter was upheld and the appeal was dismissed.
