Robert's New Trial (1 févr. 1997 – 1 déc. 1997)
Description:
After a new trial, Robert Latimer was again found guilty of second-degree murder in late 1997. At the sentencing hearing, Robert Latimer’s lawyer argued that he should be given a “constitutional exemption,” or that the judge should find the mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years to be “cruel and unusual punishment” in the circumstances, and therefore a violation of Robert Latimer’s rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.Ajouté au bande de temps:
