The high-profile case in Nova Scotia Supreme Court is the second time the former medical student has been tried for the fatal 2015 shooting
The case against a former Dalhousie University medical student accused of killing another student during a drug deal and dismembering his body is now in the hands of a jury.
In 2017, a jury found Sandeson guilty of the crime. He was automatically sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years. Chipman ruled that at the beginning of the second interview late on Aug. 18, 2015, Sandeson was under the impression he was facing a kidnapping charge. But the judge said it was clear that police already had reasonable grounds to suspect he had murdered Samson.
In the first version, Sandeson claimed Samson didn’t show up to complete the drug deal. By the final version, the accused was describing how three unidentified assailants in black bodysuits entered the apartment, shot Samson in the head and carried his body away. Sandeson said he brought his 9-mm semi-automatic handgun to the drug deal because he planned to confront Samson about the robbery. He insisted he had no intention of killing him. “I planned to use that gun to intimidate,” he told Crown prosecutor Carla Ball last week.
