Appeal court finds no miscarriage of justice in 2017 Vancouver incident

The B.C. Court of Appeal has upheld the manslaughter conviction of a man who claimed he lashed out in self defence, in part because of his claustrophobia, resulting in an elderly man’s death at a Vancouver Costco in 2017.

The ruling says Ocampo pepper sprayed Toth, who then pushed the elderly man, causing him to hit his head and he died a month later in hospital.
