Juror’s illness postpones frozen teen trial in Winnipeg - image

WINNIPEG – The trial of a man accused in the death of a Winnipeg teenager found frozen in a shed 26 years ago has been postponed.

One of the jurors is sick, so Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Glen Joyal decided not to go ahead with proceedings until Thursday.

Mark Edward Grant has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in the death of Candace Derksen.

The 13-year-old girl disappeared while walking home from school in November 1984.

She was found two months later in the shed not far from her home.
