Men who escaped Vancouver Island prison plead not guilty to murder

Two men accused of killing a man after escaping a minimum-security federal prison on Vancouver Island pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in BC Supreme Court.

Zachary Armitage and James Lee Busch are charged with killing 60-year-old Martin Payne in July 2019, a day after the pair walked away from William Head Institution.

Justice David Crossin told the jury at the start of the trial that although the men are being tried together, their guilt or innocence should be determined individually.
