A man accused of killing a Surrey, B.C., resident during a home invasion in 2024 has been convicted of second-degree murder, in a case that triggered calls for bail reform.
The BC Prosecution Service says Adam Mann was found guilty by a jury in New Westminster, B.C., on Wednesday.
Mann is set to appear next Thursday in court to set a date for sentencing.
The attack happened on June 16, 2024, at 30-year-old Tori Dunn's home in Surrey's Port Kells neighbourhood, where she was stabbed and died from her injuries.
Mann's DNA was found on the handle of a knife that also carried Dunn's blood, but Mann told court he picked up the knife on the side of the road before police arrived and arrested him.
The case generated considerable public interest because Mann was facing an unrelated aggravated assault charge and was slated to appear in court in the matter, but had been released on bail.
Dunn's family launched a petition calling for a legal review of what led to Mann's release and for changes to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
NDP Leader David Eby had said in his capacity as premier in July that he had asked his team to reach out to the Dunn family to discuss the case and to find ways to support their calls for reform.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team said in a statement in June that Mann, an Ontario resident, was found by Surrey police while they were on their way to Dunn's home.
Mann was once deemed an "unmanageable risk" unsuitable for community supervision, in a pre-sentencing report after being convicted of a home invasion in Ontario more than a decade ago.
Court records in B.C., Ontario and New Brunswick show Mann has a criminal history dating back decades.
In 2009, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison for robbery and weapons offences in a home invasion. He unsuccessfully appealed that conviction.
The Ontario Court of Appeal ruling in 2010 said Mann had racked up 22 previous convictions by the age of 25, including violent offences involving firearms and robberies.
The ruling said a pre-sentence report on Mann was "very bleak," and that he once described stabbing a female victim as "like a knife going through butter."
The report said Mann was "not suitable for community supervision, as he appears to be an unmanageable risk while in the community."
In December 2014, Mann was convicted of assault after spitting on two employees of the Atlantic Institution in Renous, N.B., where he was incarcerated.
Online court records in B.C. show Mann also has a long criminal history in the province.
In 2021, he was found guilty of publication of an intimate image without consent, an offence that occurred in Abbotsford.
In March this year, Mann was found guilty of possessing a weapon for dangerous purpose, and wilfully resisting or obstructing a peace office. He was then found guilty of breaching a probation order on June 5.
Eby had previously said Mann's release had raised questions because he was facing criminal charges and Crown prosecutors had urged a judge not to release him back into the community.
A statement from B.C. Attorney General Niki Sharma on June 28 said the government would look at what happened and push Ottawa to "ensure the federal Criminal Code is responsive to public safety needs."

The federal government is set to announce funding for more than 60 national sport organizations today.
Organizations set to receive funding include Athletics Canada, Canada Basketball, the Canadian Cycling Association and Hockey Canada.
Secretary of State for Sport Adam van Koeverden will announce the funding today alongside Team Canada athletes and members of Parliament.
A government official says the funding is meant to help organizations expand participation by increasing access, building interest and delivering programming.
The federal government announced plans in its spring economic update to inject more money into Canada's national sport organizations.
That promise came after the Future of Sport in Canada Commission's final report, issued in March, found the country's sport system was facing a "funding crisis" as federal funding had not kept up with inflation.

Elle était là depuis mars dernier. 😲
Presque devenu une attraction touristique, le véhicule coincé dans la rivière des Mille Îles depuis mars 2026 a finalement été repêché, à la suite d'une opération policière d'envergure qui s'est déroulée ce 21 octobre, soit sept mois plus tard.

La voiture abandonnée en plein milieu des rapides, à Terrebonne, a enfin quitté l’eau, et pas de la façon la plus classique : elle est repartie suspendue au bout d’un câble, sous un hélicoptère.
Les services de police de Terrebonne/Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines/Bois-des-Filion et de Laval avaient prévenu la population le matin même qu’une opération conjointe aurait lieu vers 9 h. C’était leur deuxième essai : une première tentative, à la fin juillet, avait échoué parce que les conditions ne permettaient pas d’intervenir de façon sécuritaire.
Cette fois, c’était la bonne. Le maire de Terrebonne, Mathieu Traversy, a confirmé la fin des travaux sur les réseaux sociaux, en soulignant qu’il s’agissait d’une « opération complexe » et en remerciant les équipes mobilisées. Et les images de la manœuvre, elles, sont assez impressionnantes.
Récupérer une auto dans une rivière, ce n’est déjà pas simple. Mais à cet endroit précis, « les berges et l'impact environnemental rendaient l’approche difficile », selon ce qu’a expliqué le capitaine Vincent Charbonneau, du Service de police de Terrebonne, à Radio-Canada.
La solution retenue : faire appel à un remorqueur professionnel et en remorquage, et à un hélicoptère assez puissant pour hisser le véhicule hors de l’eau.
L’opération a obligé les autorités à ériger un large périmètre de sécurité, notamment sur le boulevard des Mille-Îles, du côté de Laval. Le voisinage avait aussi été prévenu que le bruit et le souffle des pales risquaient de se faire sentir.

Depuis des mois, la carcasse intriguait les gens du coin, et l’opération de mercredi a fait réagir en masse sur les réseaux sociaux. Plusieurs ont salué la fin de ce qu’une personne a qualifié de « toute une épopée », tandis qu’une autre a lancé que l’auto était « presque rendue la 8e merveille du monde ».
Mais la grande question qui revient dans les commentaires, c’est la facture. « Maintenant, envoyez la facture des opérations au propriétaire! », a écrit un internaute, dans un commentaire qui a récolté des dizaines de réactions. La Ville n’a pas précisé publiquement le coût de l’opération ni qui l’assumera.
Narcity Québec s’est renseigné auprès de la Ville de Terrebonne pour savoir qui paiera le tout. L’article sera mis à jour dès qu’une réponse sera obtenue.
Pour ce qui est de la suite de l'enquête, les autorités ont mentionné que l'identité du propriétaire de cette Nissan Altima était connue, mais n'allait pas être divulguée pour le moment. Narcity Québec a aussi contacté le Service de police de Terrebonne/Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines/Bois-des-Filion afin d’en savoir plus sur les prochaines étapes du dossier, notamment sur la possibilité que des accusations soient déposées, puisque la thèse de l’accident a été écartée. L’article sera mis à jour dès qu’une réponse sera obtenue.
L’épave a peut-être quitté la rivière, mais elle risque de faire parler d’elle encore un bout.
