Wow, that's awfully quick!
IMO the Crown must have a lot of evidence against him that is not circumstantial.

I was sort of surprised that LE has completely changed their tune regarding DS murdering HM. I thought it was pretty strange for 3 murders to happen in the Pass--at all, let alone so close together.
I don't know if it's been mentioned recently or not, but DS's grandfather did live next door to HM. So maybe it was a crime of opportunity due to proximity?

i also think it is interesting that HDB's body was released shortly before DS was charged so I wonder if there was evidence on her remains that matched evidence on HM's
I am wondering that also.

A man accused of killing three people in southern Alberta last year will go to trial without a preliminary hearing.
Date is set for June 13th not June 3rd.

He's also charged with killing Hannah (Hanne) Meketech. The senior that lived next door (?) to his grandmother.

I just can't imagine... Hopefully we will find out soon, though.
I don't think I have "looked forward" to a trial this much in a long time. Can't wait to see justice served!

Sorry I don't recall if there was any connection to DS and HM. Was she known to him or was she just random? The court has ruled there will be no PH for this case, it's heading straight to trial. I've been following the Tim Bosma case where the same ruling happened, no PH. IMO they may as well have had a PH in Tim's case. Over four months dedicated to this trial, 60 days out of those four month...half of the time was spent in legal arguments so what's the difference kwim? Perhaps it does shave some time off the whole proceedings but... Obviously the AG believes the evidence is strong enough for a conviction to bypass the PH. Justice cannot come soon enough.
ALL MOO.
ALL MOO.
