With the BC Supreme Court deciding to overturn the Kelly Ellard conviction (Ellard was accused of murder in Reena Virk’s slaying over a decade again), there will potentially be a fourth trial.
Presumably the public is tired of the justice system taking 11 years to resolve a court case, whether the accused is innocent or guilty.
Chances are either party that presents a coherent platform of reforming the justice system to make it a little more grounded in reality would likely resonate with members of the public that have been adversely affected by criminal activity.
