Joshua Roy Tucker, 27, is facing several charges as a result of a Battlefords RCMP investigation into the suspicious death of a 59-year-old man on a rural property southeast of Cochin Thursday.
Gordon Ernest Tucker has been identified as the man found at the location at 9:30 a.m. that day.
Joshua Tucker has been charged with one count second-degree and one count of breach of probation.
Tucker made his first appearance in North Battleford Provincial Court Monday at 9:30 a.m. He is remanded in custody and his matters will return to provincial court Monday, June 11 at 11 a.m. The Crown indicated they are still in the process of gathering all the information for disclosure in the case. Should Tucker seek bail, that application has to be made to Queen's Bench court.
