Alberta judge extends ban on police interrogation videos of intellectually disabled woman

An Alberta judge ruled Thursday to continue a ban on the public release of video excerpts played in open court depicting the police interrogation of an intellectually challenged woman whose murder conviction was quashed earlier this month.

Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Beth Hughes extended an interim ban on the release of portions of Wendy Scott’s police interrogation video which were played in court during the jury trial of her co-accused Connie Oakes.
