It could be 2018 before Dennis Oland goes to trial again on a second degree murder charge in his father’s death.
A court hearing yesterday in Saint John was adjourned for a month before a trial date will be set. The judge wants to wait to see if the Crown will try to take the case to the Supreme Court of Canada after the provincial Court of Appeal overturned Oland’s murder conviction in October.
A man was taken to hospital as a precaution after a fire yesterday morning at his St. Stephen home. The fire started on the first floor and spreading through the house.
St. Stephen Fire Chief Jeff Richardson told the Telegraph-Journal the man was a hoarder and the house was packed with piles of books, furniture, bed frames and other possessions which filled most of the space making it unsafe for his crews to go inside. They called in an excavator to tear the house down.
