Jurors in Kelowna were into their second full day of deliberations Thursday following the second murder trial of Peter Beckett, the former New Zealand politician accused of killing his wife on a B.C. vacation more than seven years ago.
Peter Beckett is charged with murder in connection to the death of his wife, Laura Letts, on Aug. 18, 2010. She drowned in Upper Arrow Lake, south of Revelstoke.
Following a months-long trial in B.C. Supreme Court in Kamloops last year, Beckett’s jury was unable to reach a unanimous decision after more than a week of deliberations.
His second trial began late last month.
Jurors in Kelowna began deliberations at about 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday.
