THUNDER BAY - After a jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict in the trial against Jonathan Massicotte for his alleged role in the 2014 death of 32-year-old William Wapoose, the Crown has elected for a new trial before a judge alone.
Massicotte was first charged in May 2019 with first-degree murder in connection to the death of Wapoose, whose body was found in the Chapples Park area on Sept. 4, 2014. Wapoose suffered numerous injuries including a skull fracture and laceration from blunt force trauma, several stab wounds to the back, and a stab wound on the neck that resulted in his death due to a loss of blood.
After deliberating for nearly a day and a half, the jury informed Justice Tracey Nieckarz that it was unable to reach a unanimous verdict.
