The 73-year-old Sundre Resident, Ronald James Edwards, suspected in the historic homicide that took place 47 years ago, will have his trial moved from Cochrane back to the Court of King's Bench on Mar. 8 in Calgary.
Edwards was arrested on Nov. 7 and was accused for the murder of Pauline Brazeau, a Métis, single mother from Saskatchewan, on Jan. 9, 1976.
Brazeau was last seen leaving Peppe’s Ristorante near 7th Street and 17th Avenue in Calgary around 3 a.m. Her body would be later found in Cochrane RCMP Jurisdiction.
Last November, Edwards’ case was moved from the Kings Court Bench in Calgary to The Provincial Court of Justice.
The matter was moved several times to Jan. 30, where his case was brought forward again in the Cochrane Provincial Court of Justice.
It was decided that his case would be moved back to the Kings Court Bench in Calgary, and is expected to go before judge and jury.
Edwards has yet to be proven guilty and will remain in custody.
