A man accused of killing a retired Ottawa federal tax court judge, his wife and a neighbour has been committed to stand trial on three counts of first-degree murder.
Ian Bush, 60, was committed to trial following a five-day preliminary hearing that concluded Wednesday.
Bush is accused of killing Alban Garon, 77, his wife, Raymonde Garon, 77, and neighbour Marie-Claire Beniskos in late June 2007. The three were found dead in the Garons’ upscale Riverside Drive condominium.
Bush was charged with first-degree murder a year ago after he was arrested and charged in the December 2014 attempted murder and robbery of 101-year-old Second World War veteran Ernest Côté in his New Edinburgh condominium. Côté had a bag placed over his head and was left for dead after an intruder claiming to be a city employee gained access to his residence. Bush is set to stand trial on those charges in March 2017.
