Jamie Bacon’s trial postponed for more than a year

James Kyle Bacon

The trial for accused Surrey Six killer Jamie Bacon has been postponed for more than a year due to delays in the pre-trial process. Bacon was supposed to go to trial Sept. 2 on one count of first-degree murder and one of conspiracy to commit murder for his alleged role in October 19, 2007 slaughter in a Surrey high-rise that left six dead, including two innocent bystanders.

Neil MacKenzie, spokesman for the criminal justice branch, confirmed Wednesday that the trial has now been adjourned until October 31, 2016 – more than seven years after Bacon’s arrest.
