Gawron case stalls as Greaves seeks more forensic input
MEDICINE HAT Alberta. Crown prosecutor Darwin Greaves says he has enlisted another lawyer to help review police reports into the death of Tadeus Gawron and needs more information from forensic experts or archaeologists before deciding on charges. Gawron's bones were exhumed in May after 17 years. Greaves hopes to bring closure within weeks and expects a public update mid August. Police have not named suspects among Gawron's four children, but did not rule out his wife Sofia, a long term patient in Blairmore. Medical examiner's report results have not been released.
