Judge
clarifies areas of appeal
VANCOUVER - The judge
whose dissenting reasons give BC serial killer Robert Pickton an
automatic right to appeal his case to the Supreme Court of Canada issued
a memo clarifying his opinion. In June, the BC Court of Appeal in a 2-1
split decision, upheld the convictions. But because of Justice Ian
Donald's dissenting opinion, the case automatically can be appealed.

I was
put on Earth to rid people of their 'evil ways'
VANCOUVER - Last year, The Sun
published excerpts from letters Robert (Willie) Pickton
sent from prison. We couldn't print everything for fear
of influencing the jury. Now we can. His shocking words
provide a glimpse into what may have motivated the
serial killer. Convicted serial killer Robert (Willie)
Pickton said he was put on Earth to rid people of their
"evil ways" in a letter to a prison pen pal in 2006.
