Ruth Bonneville / Free Press 49.8 - Wyant Portrait of Provincial court Judge Raymond Wyant, outside the Law courts building in the rain. Story: A feature about domestic violence and how it is handled in the courts, in light of the Carman slayings. We have spoken to lawyers, advocates and researchers, and Judge Wyant, who had a client when he was a defence attorney decades ago who secured bail on a dangerous driving charge and went on to brutally kill his wife. Wyant spoke about how that case affected him, and about how the handling of domestic violence has evolved in the justice system in the decades he's been involved in it.
