GRANDE PRAIRIE, Alta. – Two people facing a second trial at the time of Mening's death of their son are calling for charges against them to be thrown out, and about $ 4 million from Alberta Justice.
David Stephan and his wife, Collette, are found guilty in 2016 that they have not provided life to the 19-month-old Ezekiel.
Their trial at Letbourge, Alta, heard evidence that they treated the boy with garlic, onions and horseradish instead of taking him to a doctor.
The Stefan eventually called 911, but the child died in a hospital in 2012.
Last May, the Supreme Court of Canada ordered a new court ruling stating that the original judge had not properly instructed jurors.
At a court hearing on Thursday, the couple filed applications for the cessation of proceedings, as well as claim Alberta justice up to $ 4 million to cover their court costs.
