Ex-boyfriend confesses to child’s murder
Peter Small writes for the Toronto Star:
In a scene worthy of movie-of-the-week witness box confessions, the former boyfriend of a woman charged with fatally beating her 2-year-old daughter testified Wednesday he was the killer.
His testimony cannot be used “against him in other proceedings except prosecutions for perjury or giving contradictory evidence.”
