‘Not too happy:’ judge grants brief delay in trial of man accused in fatal Cedar crash
NANAIMO — A brief delay has been granted in the trial of a man accused in a hit-and run which killed a woman in Cedar in 2015.
Dustin Zinter’s trial is slated to resume in BC Supreme Court in Nanaimo Thursday morning, after the Honourable Justice Robin Baird allowed Zinter time to review details of the case against him.
Zinter, 41, upended the trial by firing his lawyer last Friday after the Crown rested its case.
At that time, Zinter insisted he had a new lawyer who would take up his case.
