Crown says evidence in B.C. murder trial is not credible

A prosecutor told a B.C. Supreme Court jury in Kamloops that the accused in the Tatjana Stefanski killing should not be believed, saying his version of events does not fit the evidence. In closing arguments, Crown lawyer Laura Drake said the only reasonable conclusion is that Vitali Stefanski killed his exwife by stabbing her to death. She argued his testimony was selfserving and conflicted with common sense, logic, and the physical evidence presented at trial. Stefanski has pleaded not guilty to seconddegree murder. He testified that Tatjana Stefanski stabbed herself in his car and that he did not dump her body, saying she slipped from his grasp near a rural road outside Lumby, B.C. The trial is continuing.
