EDMONTON — The lawyer for an Alberta man found guilty of the second-degree murder of two seniors says his client will appeal.
Brian Beresh says he disagrees with the murder verdict against Travis Vader.
Beresh says the judge appears to have constructed his own version of what happened to Lyle and Marie McCann based on circumstantial evidence.
Justice Denny Thomas said he concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that Vader killed the couple during a robbery.
Vader was charged with first-degree murder, but Thomas said there wasn’t enough evidence to conclude Vader planned to killed the McCanns.
The McCanns, both in their 70s, disappeared while camping and their bodies have never been found.
