Crown prosecutors in Moncton have finished presenting evidence in Janson Baker’s trial on two counts of first-degree murder.

Baker is accused of killing 74-year-old Rose-Marie Saulnier and her husband, 78-year-old Bernard Saulnier, in Dieppe on Sept. 7, 2019.

The Crown alleges the 29-year-old was directed by a drug-trafficking network to find and kill the couple’s son, Sylvio Saulnier, over a rift that had developed. Instead, it’s alleged Baker killed Sylvio’s parents.

The final prosecution witness in the trial, which began at the start of January, was a forensic pathologist who carried out autopsies on the couple.
