Another court date has been set for Douglas Hales, 35, charged with the first-degree murder of Daleen Bosse. The mother and university student went missing in 2004. Her remains were discovered in a wooded area north of Saskatoon in 2008. Hales was arrested shortly after the remains of Bosse were found, and has been in custody ever since. Earlier this year he dismissed his lawyer–the sixth lawyer to represent him–and his new lawyer needed time to work on the case. The trial for Hales is now scheduled for May 2014. Hales has elected to be tried by judge alone.
