SASKATOON – A friend of the man accused of killing his ex-girlfriend testified in court on Tuesday of the time leading up to and following the murder.
George Allgood is accused of shooting Susan Reinhardt and her boyfriend David Ristow at their Saskatoon residence in July 2006.
Michael Plant-Jae used to live with Allgood and told the court he was a “nice guy.”

Plant-Jae testified the two of them played video games and drank alcohol during the day before the shooting.
He also said Allgood was suppose to come by the next day but never showed up.
“I asked him why he didn’t show up and he said he’d been talking to the cops about something that happened and that was pretty much it, he never went into detail,” Plant-Jae said outside of court.
Two patrol officers also testified on day two of the trial.
They said they saw a man matching Allgood’s description running across a downtown street carrying a duffle bag as they responded to the shooting.
Day three of the trial continues Wednesday at Court of Queen’s Bench.
