Jury finds Umar Zameer ‘not guilty’ after 5-week trial for 1st-degree murder
Description
April 21, 2024
A jury in Toronto has found Umar Zameer not guilty, after a five-week trial for the first-degree murder of Det. Const. Jeffrey Northrup, who died on July 2, 2021 after being hit by a vehicle in an underground parking garage. As Catherine McDonald reports, Zameer and his family are relieved he’s a free man — but Northrup’s widow and the police chief are disappointed with the verdict.
