in a case that?

Hi! everyone.
Could you tell me what "in a case that" means in the lines below? Or Could you rephrase that part to help me understand?
The sentencing of John Leonard MacKean of Halifax was the second of two prosecutions in a case that Crown attorney
Lloyd Tancock described outside court as being among the most disturbing of his long career.
Does it mean that two prosecutions took place in a case and both of them were the most disturbing in Lloyd's career?
Thanks!
