Eichler will go to trial in September for two counts of first-degree murder and offering an indignity to a human body– it’s alleged he had intercourse with Bear’s body after she had been killed.

He’s also accused of violently choking and raping a woman behind a home in a Regina industrial area in June 2012, but those charges will see a separate court case.
