Coverup alleged in 1987 murder conviction

Manitoba police, Crown accused of cover-up

Federal investigators accused Manitoba cops and prosecutors of framing a man for murder in 1987. Frank Ostrowski, who spent 23 years in prison, is now seeking bail.

Kirk Makin writes for the Globe and Mail:

The finding came in response to grave allegations that police and prosecutors concealed the fact that a witness who perjured himself at Mr. Ostrowski’s 1987 trial was given a deal in return for his testimony.
