Senior found guilty in death of nursing home resident

 A Canadian man was recently found responsible for the death of a nursing home patient.
"A jury has found a senior with dementia guilty of second-degree murder for using his walking cane to beat to death a 72-year-old woman, but acquitted him of attempting to murder a 91-year-old woman. The jury deliberated for 10 hours over what responsibility Peter Brooks, 76, had for the attacks at the Wexford long-term care home in March 2013."
