Steven Elliot Laffin became a suspect about three weeks later after the Dartmouth man was arrested on charges of attacking another sex worker in Halifax.

Police charged Laffin with her murder in October 2010, but the woman’s body has never been found.

Laffin has remained in a Halifax jail since then.

Nine days have been booked for the preliminary inquiry.

Five people – four civilians and one police officer – testified Monday.
