Gerald Stanley, charged with second degree murder in the death of Colten Boushie in an incident in the rural municipality of Glenside near Biggar, has been granted bail.
Decision on bail was reserved after a hearing at Queen’s Bench court in Battleford Thursday, but a decision was handed down Friday for Stanley to be released.
Queen’s Court Justice Neil Gabrielson ordered Stanley to post $10,000 cash bail and remain within a 6.5-kilometre radius of his Biggar-area home. He is to wear electronic monitoring and adhere to those restrictions unless he has written permission from his probation officer.
He is also forbidden any contact with the Boushie family and is not to go within a 16-kilometre radius of Red Pheasant First Nation.
The next court date for Stanley is Sept. 13 in North Battleford Provincial Court.
