GEORGETOWN, P.E.I. – A man accused in the shooting deaths of a father and son in Prince Edward Island has elected to be tried by Supreme Court judge alone.
A lawyer for Alfred Guy Vuozzo made the request on his client’s behalf Thursday in a Georgetown court.

Vuozzo has also waived his right to a preliminary inquiry.
The 46-year-old man has not yet entered pleas on two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of 68-year-old Brent McGuigan and 39-year-old Brendon McGuigan.
Their bodies were found in a home on St. Mary’s Road in Montague on Aug. 20.
The case returns to the province’s Supreme Court in Charlottetown on Nov. 14.
