HALIFAX – A pre-trial hearing in Halifax to determine the admissibility of evidence in the homicide case of Loretta Saunders has been adjourned until Feb. 25.
Blake Leggette and Victoria Henneberry are both charged with first-degree murder and their four-week jury trial is scheduled to start April 20 in the Nova Scotia Supreme Court.
The 26-year-old Saunders was found dead in a wooded area off the Trans-Canada Highway in New Brunswick two weeks after she disappeared from her Halifax apartment a year ago.
The evidence presented at the pre-trial is banned from publication.
