John Dickinson’s family members sobbed in the courtroom when they heard the jury had found Mohamed Daud Omar guilty of second-degree murder in his death.
A man accused of fatally stabbing 30-year-old John Dickinson after an altercation in a downtown Victoria bar in 2022 has been found guilty of second-degree murder.
“Johnny didn’t deserve to die for throwing a punch, and I’ll tell you that it must have been something, because Johnny was not aggressive,” she said. Omar, who called no witnesses and mounted no defence during the trial, did not appear to react to the verdict.
