Quick Summary

Beau Lamarre-Condon faced a judge's rebuke during his double murder trial for giving speeches rather than answering questions on the witness stand. When Crown prosecutor Brett Hatfield questioned him, Lamarre-Condon responded expansively instead of concisely, prompting Justice Natalie Adams to tell him to "confine yourself to the answer." Accused of two counts of domestic violence-related murder and one count of break and enter, Lamarre-Condon pleaded not guilty to the murders but admitted to the burglary.

Why this leaning score

This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
