SASKATOON - A 20-day jury trial originally scheduled for April 8, 2024, for two suspects in the death of Edward [Ted] Geddes will now be held March 17, 2025, at the Court of King's Bench in Saskatoon.

Robert [Bob] Wesley Pich, 59, and John Robert Gregoire, 71, were arrested in February 2022 after an almost year-long investigation by Saskatchewan RCMP Historical Case Unit and RCMP Major Crime Unit.

Pich and Gregoire both face charges of first-degree murder and kidnapping with a firearm. In addition, Pich is also charged with careless use of a firearm, while Gregoire faces an additional charge of indecently interfering with human remains.

In this historical case, Edward [Ted] Geddes was 64 years old when he was last seen in April 2011 in the Baldwinton area. Police had gone to Geddes' home in Baldwinton, located west of Cut Knife, with an arrest warrant in an unrelated incident and they found his dog dead in the entranceway. Police say the dog’s death wasn’t from natural causes. At the time, Geddes was wanted for theft over $5,000 stemming from an offence in April 2011 in nearby Neilburg.

After a nearly month-long search, police found human remains on private land in a rural area approximately three kilometres southwest of Baldwinton in mid-October 2022. RCMP say the person located is believed to be Edward [Ted] Geddes.
