One of the Crown’s key witnesses in a Moncton double-murder trial faced cross-examination questions Tuesday about his own crimes and what led him to co-operate with police.
The questioning came on the second day of the man’s testimony in Janson Baker’s trial on two counts of first-degree murder.
It’s alleged Baker killed 78-year-old Bernard Saulnier and his wife, 74-year-old Rose-Marie Saulnier, on Sept. 7, 2019. Baker has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
A Crown witness whose name cannot be reported testified Monday that Baker told him about killing the couple and taking a chain off Bernard Saulnier’s body.
