Former Brunswick news editor Patrick Brethour returned to the witness stand today in a wrongful dismissal case at the Moncton law courts.

Al Hogan, a former managing editor for the Times & Transcript, is suing the Irving-owned newspaper and is being represented by Scott Ellsworth.

During Ellsworth’s cross-examination of Brethour today, he stated that Hogan deleted key parts of an email in an attempt to mislead him.

Hogan was terminated by Brunswick News after its investigation into a 2013 fishing trip former assistant managing editor Murray Guy took to the government-owned Larry’s Gulch fishing lodge.

Court resumes next Thursday as Brunswick News lawyer Catherine Lahey is expected to call Jamie Irving to the stand.
