Nicholas Necan was found guilty of second-degree murder for the 2016 beating death of 60-year-old George Gerard.
THUNDER BAY - A man found guilty of second-degree murder in 2018 has lost an appeal to overturn the conviction.
Gerard suffered 90 blunt force trauma injuries to his face, head, and neck, as well as numerous defensive injuries to his hands and arms. Necan testified in his own defense at the trial, telling the jury he had no recollection of the assault. Necan appealed the second-degree murder conviction, arguing Fregeau erred in his instructions to the jury prior to deliberations.
Fairburn said in the decision written on behalf of the panel that none of the grounds for appeal can succeed.
