Nicholas Rasberry, who in 2013 stabbed and slashed his neighbour to death, has been once again granted bail after allegedly breaching his release conditions and obstructing a peace officer in Banff, Alta.

Rasberry was convicted in 2015 of manslaughter in connection to the death of his neighbour, teacher Craig Kelloway, and is currently appealing the conviction.

He was arrested Sunday night in Banff and appeared in a Canmore, Alta., court on Monday before a justice of the peace on three counts of breaching his bail conditions — including that he not drink — and one count of obstruction. He was granted bail.

Both Crown and defence lawyers have filed appeals of Rasberry's 2015 manslaughter conviction. Rasberry stabbed Kelloway 37 times with three knives while drinking with him after a barbecue.

The prosecution wants Rasberry convicted of murder; his lawyers argued for an acquittal.

A panel of judges from the Alberta Court of Appeal heard arguments in November but reserved a decision.

Rasberry was out on bail pending the outcome and was accused of breaching his bail conditions in December 2015, one day before he was sentenced for manslaughter, when police arrested him during a traffic stop for drinking.

The charge was stayed and Rasberry was fined $7,500.
