Christopher Ward Dunlop was convicted of manslaughter and causing an indignity to a corpse in the 2009 killing of Laura Ferlan .

Defence counsel Allan Fay said detailed video the Crown says tracks both the movements of murder victim Judy Maerz and his client the morning she was repeatedly stabbed in Deerfoot Athletic Park don’t paint that picture.

Fay said there was insufficient evidence to place his client in that nine-minute window.
