NewzFederal Justice Minister Sean Fraser has ordered a review of the murder convictions of two Saskatchewan sisters who have spent nearly three decades in prison. The directive instructs the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal to reopen the case following concerns that the original convictions may be wrongful.
The sisters have been incarcerated for approximately thirty years. The federal intervention represents a significant step in re-evaluating the historical convictions under mechanisms designed to address potential miscarriages of justice in the Canadian legal system.
