The 50-year-old man is charged with first degree murder in connection with the death of Jennifer Hillier-Penney. The woman has been missing from St. Anthony in November of 2016. Penney’s second court appearance was set for last Friday but was rescheduled due to poor weather to yesterday. In court, Penney’s lawyer, Rosellen Sullivan asked by phone if the case  could be postponed since she has not received any disclosure from the crown.
