Wilson argued an informed member of the public knowing the circumstances of Wilhelm’s case, including job-related PTSD and his early guilty plea, as well as his years of public service would not think he was getting special treatment as a policeman

In his submissions, defence lawyer Cory Wilson noted that his client has a diagnosis of PTSD that identified a risk Wilhelm would lose his temper and lash out.

[Campbell] has maintained his innocence and fiercely fought to prove that he was not the one who caused this unimaginable tragedy," said Wilson in a written statement provided to CBC News

Not only was there no evidence he committed the offence, there was no evidence he even had contact with the child on the night of her death

Defence lawyers Cory Wilson and Matt Browne argued their client was "violently and brutally attacked" by Brogden.

Sproule admitted to causing Brogden's fatal injuries, but in an opening statement to jurors, defence lawyer Cory Wilson said his client was acting in self-defence.

On Friday, defence lawyer Cory Wilson appeared in court and told Justice Sean Dunnigan that prosecutor Rosalind Greenwood consented to Campbell's release.

Perrin also read in a statement of agreed facts signed by the accused and his defence lawyers, Cory Wilson and Matt Browne, detailing how the brothers and Brogden and Pearce all arrived in Banff just hours earlier.

Simard agreed with defence lawyer Cory Wilson that a two-year conditional sentence order was appropriate in the circumstance.

Justice Christopher Simard agreed with defence counsel Cory Wilson that a conditional sentence to be served in the community was sufficient punishment on a charge of manslaughter.
