Fredericton man says he is sorry he shot and killed four people

A 50 year old Fredericton man says he is sorry he shot and killed four people in August 2018.

Matthew Raymond is on the witness stand for a third day as he stands trial for four counts of first-degree murder.

Yesterday he told the jury he thought the people around him were demons coming to kill him, but today says he no longer believes in the presence of demons.

The defence admits Raymond shot Donnie Robichaud, Bobbie Lee Wright and police constables Robb Costello and Sara Burns but argues he should be found not criminally responsible because of a mental disorder.
