The murder of Richard Oland is back in the spotlight today with the start of a preliminary hearing on a charge of second degree murder laid against his son, Dennis.
Oland was killed in July of 2011 from repeated blows to his body at his Canterbury Street office. The hearing, which is expected to last six weeks, is being held to determine if there’s enough evidence to warrant a trial.
It’s expected the presiding judge will impose a ban on the broadcasting of any of the evidence from the hearing itself.
