The cops seriously dropped the ball on this. The owner of the property Robert lived on was a popular party spot and it was an open secret that he was doing sketchy shit. So much evidence got destroyed or lost before the police finally bothered to do something. I highly recommend the Last Podcast episodes on it.
He only received second degree murder conviction. What the hell Canada? What would it take to get a first degree conviction?
Jury probably didnt believe there was enough evidence to prove it was premeditated murder. https://www.thestar.com/news/why-did-the-jury-choose-second-degree-murder/article_cdf9bd42-c67c-5702-af3f-ad8f6ff58357.html
Morbid: A True Crime Podcast did a deep dive into him. It was like 3 episodes long. It was well done.

You’re right. We should look to the US which obviously has all their shit together.
