Jury selection begins today in case against Robert Steven Wright for the 1998 murder of a Laurentian University student
Jury selection in the case against Robert Steven Wright for the 1998 murder of Laurentian University student Renée Sweeney is expected to begin this morning.
"This horrific event rocked the community to its core then, and is still very much part of our life today," said GSPS Chief Paul Pedersen said at the December 2018 press conference where Wright’s arrest was announced. "I wasn't living in Sudbury at the time when this incident occurred, but from the moment that I became chief of police in this community, this organization made it very clear to me that this case took priority.
Wright is charged with second-degree murder in the case. Upon his arrest, Wright was charged with first-degree murder, however, that has since been downgraded to second degree. Shortly after the murder, Greater Sudbury Police arrested John Fetterly, 31, and charged him with first degree murder in the case, but later admitted they'd wrongly accused him, and issued an apology.
