Saskatchewan man convicted with lover in plot to kill spouses appeals

PRINCE ALBERT, Sask. — A Saskatchewan man found guilty along with his lover of plotting to kill each other’s spouse is challenging his conviction.

Curtis Vey’s lawyer has filed an appeal that argues the judge failed to properly explain to jurors what was required to find Vey guilty of conspiracy.

The appeal also says the Crown failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Vey would have followed through with the plan.

Vey and Angela Nicholson were sentenced earlier this month to three years each in prison.

Nicholson is also appealing her conviction.

Nicholson and Vey were secretly recorded by Vey’s wife in 2013 discussing how they planned to kill their spouses and forge at least one will in order to benefit financially.
