VANCOUVER — A Crown attorney asked a Vancouver Island father why he didn’t tell his sister he hadn’t killed his daughters or that they were attacked in his apartment.
In B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, Patrick Weir asked Andrew Berry about a note he exchanged with his sister when he was in hospital following the alleged attack.
Berry is accused of second-degree murder in the stabbing deaths of six-year-old Chloe Berry and four-year-old Aubrey Berry in his home in Oak Bay.
The trial heard earlier that Berry was stabbed in the throat and his chest and because he couldn’t talk, he exchanged notes with his sister.
The jury heard the note read: “I love you. I’m sorry.”
Under questioning from Weir, Berry says he doesn’t know why he didn’t take the chance to ask for help because everyone thought he had killed his girls.
