Murder Trial: Ingrid Merkus

murder trial: She was testifying at the trial of three men charged in the death of Jonathan Bacon, a leader of the Red Scorpions, outside a hotel in Kelowna in August 2011, according to The Chronicle Herald. The driver's window was down when the SUV sped past a shop where Merkus had just emerged onto a patio carrying two coffees, court heard. Ingrid Merkus told a murder trial that the driver was definitely muscular and darker skinned. I witnessed a vehicle racing up the street and I just stayed put until the vehicle had passed, she said. She estimated he was between 20 and 27 years old. Merkus told court the driver was wearing a light-coloured shirt and described him as having short, closely cropped black hair and an olive complexion. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
