A man has been found guilty in B.C. Supreme Court for the second-degree murder of a 52-year-old Delta resident in 2017.
Following court proceedings, on Dec. 10, a jury of the B.C. Supreme Court found Adrianus Rosbergen guilty of the second-degree murder of Allen William Skedden.
Cpl. Esther Tupper, Media Relations Officer with the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said no date has been set for a sentencing hearing.
