Dennis Oland's second-degree murder trial: Sept. 29

Dennis Oland's second-degree murder trial of his father continues Tuesday morning in Saint John.

RCMP's Payman Hakimian is expected to continue his testimony on Tuesday morning

Payman Hakimian didn't find "a bit or byte" of information to support that on the office computers supporting the Crown's theory that Richard Oland was upset about his son's "monetary affairs."

Dennis Oland's second-degree murder trial of his father continues Tuesday morning in Saint John with further testimony from an expert with the RCMP's technological crimes unit.

Payman Hakimian testified on Monday that he seized and analyzed 12 items from Richard Oland's Saint John office, in response to a request for assistance from the Saint John Police Force.

All of the computers were still on when Hakimian arrived at the crime scene at 52 Canterbury Street on July 7, 2011, at 6:55 p.m. — about 10 hours after Oland's body was found.

He is expected to wrap up his testimony on Tuesday.

​Richard Oland died after suffering 40 sharp and blunt force injuries to his head and neck, as well as six defensive wounds to his hands, according to the Crown.

Dennis Oland, 46, who is the last known person to see his father alive, has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder in his father's 2011 death.
