(Quinn Talbot photo) Panovski defence presents case By Shawn Loughlin The Citizen The case of Boris Panovski has continued in recent weeks, with the prosecution wrapping up its case and turning things over to the defence. Panovski's lawyer, Christopher Hicks, has urged members of the jury to remember that there are two sides to every story, as reported by Jane Sims of the London Free Press. Since the defence has begun presenting its case, several witnesses have been called to testify that they saw a blue car driving around the area on the day of the shooting. While Panovski did have a blue/green Toyota, the defence has stated that several blue cars could have been travelling the area that day. Panovski, 73, of Scarborough is charged with the first-degree murder of Don Frigo and the attempted murder of Frigo's wife Eva Willer Frigo. According to the London Free Press, Hicks told the jury that the burden of proof is on the crown and that the defence had evidence that the jury needed to hear before handing down its verdict. Hicks has called several witnesses who have challenged the crown's ability to identify Panovski at the scene. Willer Frigo said that she hadn't seen Panovski since 2006 and couldn't necessarily identify him as the shooter that day. Paul Dreossi, a Fanshawe College art instructor who was at the Hullett Marsh hunting that day, said he saw the driver of the car and felt he was of Eastern European descent. Dreossi said he contacted the police after seeing a photo of Panovski on the London Free Press website and felt he had seen him in the car that day. Speaking through an interpreter, Panovski's sister, Petra Dojcinovska told the jury that she invited Panovski to visit her in Macedonia in 2014. She had not seen her brother since 2002, but she had health problems and needed him to sign some documents pertaining to a family land inheritance. She added that he arrived with little warning and didn't call her until he had already made it to Macedonia. Panovski's trip is crucial to the Crown's case as the Crown has alleged that he fled the country after killing Frigo. The case was scheduled to resume again this week after court was adjourned early due to a juror battling an illness. There were 180 head of veal on offer.
