DNA Testing Ordered on 30-Year-Old Bullet Casings in B.C. Murder Appeal

  • Bullet casings from a 1994 murder in B.C. will undergo DNA testing as part of an appeal for William Wade Skiffington, convicted of second-degree murder in 2001.
  • The appeal challenges a coerced confession during a "Mr. Big" sting operation and claims no forensic evidence links Skiffington to the crime.
  • The testing could uncover fresh evidence relevant to the case.
