Saskatchewan Court of Appeal reverses Dillon Whitehawk's first-degree murder convictions due to improper jury selection.

The Saskatchewan Court of Appeal has overturned Dillon Whitehawk's first-degree murder convictions for two 2019 drive-by shootings, citing improper jury selection processes that limited questioning about potential juror bias against street gang members. Whitehawk, a Regina gang member, will receive a new trial on these charges. He remains in prison for a separate second-degree murder conviction related to the 2020 death of Keesha Bitternose.
