One of three suspects in the alleged home-invasion murders of an Abbotsford, B.C., couple conducted “exceptionally damning” Google searches about punishment of murderers in Canada after media reports of the deaths, a Crown prosecutor said in closing submissions Friday. Dorsey’s closing submissions began in an Abbotsford courtroom Friday, where the public gallery was packed with family and friends of the De Jongs. (Province of British Columbia)They were found in their separate bedrooms on the morning of May 9, 2022, the court heard. “Obviously the De Jongs were not named, nor was their address provided, but Mr. Singh already knew that information,” Dorsey said. The Crown's closing submissions continued into Friday afternoon, with defence submissions set for next week followed by the Crown's reply.
