Trial to resume next week for fatal Canada Day 2016 crash

Feb 22, 2019 | 4:16 PM

Trial will continue next week for a Red Deer man charged in a fatal crash that killed two teens on Canada Day of 2016.

The judge-alone trial for Dylan James Beauclair will continue on Feb. 25 and Feb. 28.

Trial began with two days of testimony from three Crown witnesses, but the bulk of Friday was spent in a voir dire hearing (trial within a trial) regarding the credibility of the final Crown witness, an RCMP forensic collision analyst.

Beauclair, 21, faces four counts including two of dangerous driving causing death and two of dangerous driving causing bodily harm.
