Catherine Campbell murder case put over until December
Christopher Calvin Garnier, 27, charged with 2nd-degree murder and interfering with a dead body
The case of a man accused of killing Truro police officer Catherine Campbell has been put over in Nova Scotia provincial court until Dec. 15.
Christopher Calvin Garnier, 27, is charged with second degree murder and interfering with a dead body in Campbell's death. He appeared, briefly, today via video link.
Garnier's next appearance will also be by video link from the Central Nova Scotia Correctional Facility in Burnside.
Defence attorney Joel Pink has been granted time to review all the evidence from the Crown.
Campbell was a six-year veteran of the Truro police force who had volunteered as a firefighter for the past 10 years.
She was last seen Sept. 11 and was found dead in Halifax on Sept. 16.
Police are still appealing for witnesses in the case. Specifically, they're looking for witnesses who may have seen a white man, wearing shorts and a T-shirt, and pushing or pulling a green compost bin from the McCully Street area, up Agricola, North or Barrington streets at around 4:30 a.m. on Sept. 11.
Perrin said they believe the accused was the man pushing the green bin. He said police are not looking for any other suspects.
