64-year-old Edward (Ted)  Keith Geddes went missing in 2011. Two men were charged in February with his murder.

BALDWINON - RCMP have discovered human remains in a rural area about three kilomtres southwest of Baldwinton in mid-October and believe they are that of Ted Geddes who went missing in April 2011.

In February 2022, Saskatchewan RCMP Major Crimes charged two men with kidnapping and first-degree murder in relation to a 2011 missing persons investigation. Edward “Ted” Geddes was 64-years-old when he was last seen in April, 2011, in the Baldwinton, Saskatchewan area.

After a nearly month-long search, human remains were located on private land in a rural area approximately three kilometers southwest of Baldwinton, Saskatchewan in mid-October, 2022. This comes as a result of continued, extensive investigation by Saskatchewan RCMP Major Crimes investigators and the support of and collaboration with a forensic anthropologist, North Battleford Forensic Identification Services and RCMP officers from various Saskatchewan RCMP detachments.

“While positive DNA results are needed to confirm the identity of the deceased person, investigation to date has determined the person located is believed to be Edward “Ted” Geddes,” shares Superintendent Josh Graham, Officer in Charge of Saskatchewan RCMP Major Crimes. “We do not anticipate laying further charges in relation to this investigation. While we await DNA confirmation, we hope this development assists with giving Ted’s family some closure after over ten years of wondering where he is. His loved ones have been notified and our thoughts are with them.”

Specific details related to the search and recovery of the human remains will be part of the ongoing court proceedings.

Two individuals are charged in relation to Ted Geddes’ death.

Robert Wesley Pich’s next court appearance is Oct. 28, at 11 a.m. in North Battleford Provincial Court and John Robert Gregoire’s next court appearance is Nov. 8 at 10 a.m. in North Battleford Provincial Court.

Gregoire was released on bail in March. In November he was charged with new weapons offences and remained out on bail.
