A witness in a Moncton double murder trial testified Monday that the man accused of the crimes admitted to the killings when they were in prison together.
Janson Bryan Baker, 29, of Moncton is on trial on two counts of first-degree murder. It’s alleged he killed Bernard Saulnier, 78, and his wife, Rose-Marie Saulnier, 74, on Sept. 7, 2019, in Dieppe. Baker has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The fifth Crown witness in the trial that began at the start of the month began testifying Monday afternoon. He said he was serving time in prison with Baker in 2020, and they had a series of conversations about the alleged crimes.
“He told me that he was responsible for a double murder that happened in Dieppe,” the witness testified.
