Family members of a murdered little boy and his grandparents had to see the accused killer in person at the Calgary Courthouse Wednesday.
Douglas Garland, 54, said nothing during the brief appearance and his case was set over for a preliminary hearing in May of next year.
It will held to determine if there is enough evidence for a case to go to trial.
Garland faces two counts of first degree murder and one count of second degree murder in the deaths of five year old Nathan O’Brien, and Kathryn and Alvin Liknes in late June.
Police have still not located the bodies of the victims.
