      >Grant was charged with first-degree murder in 2007, after his DNA was determined to be a match to DNA found on the twine on Derksen’s body.

      >A jury found him guilty of second-degree murder in 2011 and he was sentenced to 25 years in prison.

      >But that conviction was overturned in 2013 by the Manitoba Court of Appeal, which decided the trial judge made a mistake by not allowing the defence to present evidence that pointed to another possible killer. That appeal decision was upheld by the Supreme Court of Canada in 2015. 

      >In 2017, he was found not guilty of second-degree murder during a judge-alone retrial. 

      Wow that’s a ton of extra work and effort by the legal system just to screw up a case.
