The crown in the second degree murder trial of Grace Robotti has wrapped up its case and the defence will begin its case tomorrow, March 30.
68-year-old Robotti is on trial for killing 26-year-old Roxanne Louie on January 4, 2015 in Penticton. Louie was the mother of Robotti's great-grandson.
The crown brought over a dozen of witnesses while making its case, including several police officers, a forensic pathologist and a friend of Louie's, who saw her the night before she was killed.
Robotti has admitted to killing Louie and pled guilty to interference with a body on day one of the trial, but pled not-guilty to the second degree murder charge because she says it was self-defence.
It's unclear how many witnesses the defence will call upon, but the trial is scheduled to continue until mid-April.
