A day that began with convicted murder Michael Bridges telling a Brandon courtroom he was experiencing pure rage when he killed 18-year-old Erin Chorney in 2002 ended with an emotional and tearful apology to the victim’s family members seated in the room.
Bridges himself took to the witness stand on the fifth day of his faint hope clause hearing in Brandon Court of Queen’s Bench.
