Family and friends of a murdered Indigenous woman were in court on Thursday for a scheduled hearing for the man accused in her death.
Vanessa Terry, 33, was found dead in a home on Seabird Island on April 6.
Four months later, her partner, 36-year-old Frederick Paul Charlie, was charged with one count of second-degree murder.
