After more than two weeks of evidence and testimony from 12 witnesses, jurors in the Alicia Ross murder trial must now decide if her death was an accident or if next door neighbour Daniel Sylvester, intended to kill her.
After hearing closing statements from Crown prosecutor Kelly Wright and Sylvester's defence lawyer, David Hobson, the jury will receive instructions from Justice Edwin Minden on Monday before delivering their verdict in the second-degree murder trial.
Sylvester, 33, confessed to killing his 25-year-old neighbour after the two exchanged words and fought outside their Thornhill homes in the early hours of Aug. 17, 2005.
