A first-degree murder trial in Sanikiluaq ended Wednesday in a mistrial, one day after it started due to what the judge called “unexpected” issues. “I want to assure you that it is not a reflection on the jury nor a reflection on individual members of the jury,” Justice Susan Cooper told the jury presiding over the trial of Danny Paul Eyaituk. On April 19, 2024, the RCMP arrested Eyaituk, who was 38 at the time, after his wife Annie Tracy Oqaituq, 36, was found dead in their home.
