A man has been found guilty of manslaughter following the assault and death of a manager at Casino New Brunswick in Moncton two years ago. Michael Thomas Glaspy of Riverview, N.B., appeared in court on Wednesday and was found guilty by jury of manslaughter in connection with the 2023 homicide. He was released on conditions until his next court appearance on Aug. 13. Members of the Codiac Regional RCMP responded to a report of an assault at the Moncton Casino on March 4, 2023. A 56-year-old man, identified as Rodney Frenette of Moncton, was taken to hospital with serious injuries where he died later that month. According to Frenette’s obituary, he had a long career in the gaming industry and was the food and beverages manager at the casino and oversaw two restaurants. Glaspy, who was arrested at the scene and later released, was arrested again on April 13, 2023. He appeared in court the next day and was charged with manslaughter.
