Leslie Greenwood found guilty in Mersereau Christensen murder



The Turo Daily News is reporting that Leslie Douglas Greenwood, 42, was sentenced to a mandatory sentence of life in prison with no possibility of parole for 25 years. A Nova Scotia Supreme Court jury delivered its verdicts Wednesday afternoon following a trial into the shooting deaths of Barry Kirk Mersereau, 48, and his 47-year-old wife, Nancy Paula Christensen, in their Centre Burlington, Hants County, home on Sept. 9, 2000.

The Hells Angels biker gang ordered the killings as a payment for Greenwood and another man’s – Michael Lawrence – drug debt. Lawrence, 38, pleaded guilty last January to the two murders and is serving a life sentence with no eligibility of parole for 25 years. Curtis Blair Lynds, 36, has also been charged with the murders and a preliminary inquiry is scheduled to begin July 16. He’s currently in prison on a drug trafficking sentence.

We're still waiting to hear about Rusty and Ellen's murder. Now I'm hearing they were ripped off and that it was an inside job.
