Strange Twist Halts Second Degree Murder Trial
A strange and bizarre twist has come to light involving one of the defense lawyers in the second degree murder trial of Kenneth Ivall and Angela Duchesne.
Thunder Bay Lawyer Chris Watkins, who is representing one of the accused, says lawyer David Gibson who represents the other defendant has been appointed as a judge.
The appointment has put an abrupt halt to the trial until the situation can be cleared up.
Watkins says there is a possibility of the case being declared a mistrial.
