HALIFAX — A man accused of killing an off-duty Nova Scotia police officer has been released on bail.
The province's Public Prosecution Service says Christopher Calvin Garnier was granted bail today in Nova Scotia Supreme Court.
Garnier is facing a charge of second-degree murder in the death of Truro police officer Catherine Campbell.
The 28-year-old Halifax resident was also charged with interfering with a dead body after Campbell's remains were found in September 2015 near the base of an overpass in Halifax.
Campbell served as a Truro police constable for six years.
Garnier's trial is scheduled to begin on Nov. 20, 2017.
