Manslaughter trial in 2020 death underway in Sarnia

The trial of a Sarnia man charged in the death of a woman in the fall of 2020 began Tuesday.

Timothy Nahmabin, 45, has pleaded not guilty to the charge of manslaughter in the death of Nada Court, whose name up until the trial had not been released.

The 69-year-old woman was found unresponsive at the bottom of a rear entrance landing, at a Colborne Road apartment building on October 25, 2020. 

Nahmabin was arrested nearly a week later and was originally charged with second degree murder.  The charge was reduced to manslaughter in February 2022.

His judge only trial continues in Sarnia court today. It's expected to take two weeks.
