Nearly one month after a 74-year-old man was found dead on a central Alberta road by police, RCMP say two people have been charged in connection with his death.
Celeste Morningstar Saddleback, 26, has been charged with first-degree murder and Kardon Ryan Demetroff, 23, has been charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death of Larry Parker.
At about 8:15 a.m., on April 12, Mounties were called to the scene of an unresponsive man lying on Herman-Minde Road east of Highway 2A.
“Responding RCMP officers determined that the male was deceased and the circumstances appeared suspicious,” police said in a news release issued last month.
The death was later deemed a homicide.
