A trial date has now been set for a man accused of murdering a Yellowknife woman in May of 2020. Devon Larabie's trial will begin Nov. 14 in the N.W.T. Supreme Court.
Devon Larabie will have his pick from a panel of three lawyers to represent him after he fired three others. He is accused of murdering a 22-year-old woman in Yellowknife in May 2020.
After firing his third and final lawyer provided by legal aid in September, Devon Larabie's legal representation will likely be covered by the federal government.
According to court documents, the prosecutor was caught off-guard by the move. He noted witnesses and family members had already booked travel to Yellowknife for the trial, which has been scheduled for months.
