The Alberta man sentenced to life in prison for the manslaughter deaths of St. Albert couple Lyle and Marie McCann will go to trial on charges racked up while out on bail during the double murder trial last year.

Travis Vader, 45, faces charges of break and enter, possession of property obtained by crime, as well as multiple breach of conditions and failure to comply with court order charges.

The charges were laid in the midst of Vader’s spring 2016 trial for two second-degree murder charges. At the time, police said Vader breached his bail conditions by allegedly failing a drug test and contacting a Crown witness from his murder trial. Police also alleged he was involved in a copper wire and truck theft at a west-end industrial park when they arrested him.

At a hearing where all evidence and testimony were protected under a publication ban, Vader’s bail was revoked. He remained in custody for the duration of his court proceedings. He is now serving his life sentence in a federal institution.

Vader did not appear during the hearing on Tuesday.

After being sentenced in January to life in prison for killing the elderly St. Albert couple, Vader’s lawyer filed an appeal of both the conviction and sentence.
