Michael White’s police interview was captured on video and the jury at his second-degree murder trial was able to see how he reacted when confronted by homicide investigators. Part 4 of The Crime Tapes looks at White’s police interview — and the verdict in the case. Nov. 24, 2006: The police interview On the witness stand, White looked at the jury and stated he did not kill his wife. The defence opened its case with the accused testifying under oath. Nov. 28, 2006: The testimony The Crown’s evidence did lack one thing: a concrete motive as to why White would murder his wife. But would that make a difference? When the jury came back, CTV News Edmonton broke into live programming with the decision, and then at 6 p.m. a full segment on the verdict. Dec. 7, 2006: Guilty verdict That was not the end of this case; not by a long shot. In Part 5 of The Crime Tapes, you’ll learn something the jury did not have access to: There may have been a witness to this crime.
