The Supreme Court of Canada has rejected an attempt by triple-murderer Jesse Imeson to appeal a lower court decision that called into question claims that childhood sexual abuse contributed to his lethal behavior as an adult. Imeson was found guilty in 2008 of killing three people in Southwestern Ontario in 2007. The court gave no reason for its decision, as is standard practice.

Jesse Norman Imeson, a convicted Windsor murderer, has been suing Maryvale Adolescent and Family Services for alleged sexual abuse he experienced there as an adolescent. A recent Supreme Court of Canada decision dismissed Imeson's application to appeal a lower court's judgment, which found that a mental health clinician's testimony exceeded the limits of expert witness evidence. A new civil trial has been ordered, but the date has yet to be set. Imeson remains in prison, serving a life sentence for three counts of second-degree murder.
