WINNIPEG — A man accused of killing an indigenous woman whose body was found in a farmer’s field has been denied bail.
Brett Overby, who is 30, looked over to his family in the courtroom as a judge ruled he must stay behind bars while awaiting trial on a charge of second-degree murder.
Overby is accused of killing Christine Wood last August.
The 21-year-old was from Oxford House First Nation and disappeared while visiting Winnipeg with her parents.
