The victim has been identified by police as Daphne Badger. An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday.
Nearly a month later, on Sept. 19, Edmonton police released the autopsy results, saying Badger died from a gunshot wound and her death was a homicide. EPS said the delay was due to a procedural oversight.
David Cardinal was arrested in August and charged with manslaughter and possession of a prohibited firearm.
Police did not say whether Badger and Cardinal knew each other.
