Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press Tulips bloom outside the Supreme Court of Canada in Ottawa on May 24, 2019. The high court ruled in favour of a new manslaughter trial for Ontario trucker Bradley Barton in the case of Cindy Gladue's death. OTTAWA — The Supreme Court of Canada says Ontario trucker Bradley Barton should be retried for manslaughter, but not murder, in the case of Cindy Gladue, who bled to death in the bathroom of his Edmonton motel room. Barton acknowledged hiring Cindy Gladue for sex in 2011 and claimed the severe injury to her vaginal wall that caused her death was an accident that took place during rough but consensual activity. Watch: A rally was held last year in Ottawa calling for justice for Cindy Gladue.
