Braden Herman’s body was found on May 11, 2021, in an isolated area of Little Red River Park on the outskirts of Prince Albert.
Herman, who was a 32-year member of the RCMP when he was arrested, has since resigned and pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Crown attorney William Burge has said the accused is to be tried by a judge and jury.
