Woman charged with stealing Loretta Saunders’s car to have bail hearing Friday
HALIFAX – The case against a woman who police allege stole a car belonging to Loretta Saunders has been adjourned.
Victoria Henneberry, who is charged with possession of stolen goods, is due in provincial court in Halifax for a bail hearing Friday.
Henneberry’s lawyer says she just arrived in Nova Scotia from Ontario and more time is needed to review the case.
Saunders’s body was found Wednesday in the median off Route 2 of the Trans-Canada Highway, west of Moncton, N.B., two weeks after she disappeared.
Police say they consider her death a homicide, have identified suspects and anticipate charges.
Saunders’s car was found on Feb. 19 south of Windsor, Ont., and 28-year-old Henneberry and 25-year-old Blake Leggette were charged with possession of stolen goods.
Leggette is also scheduled to appear in court for a bail hearing Friday.
Saunders, a 26-year-old student at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax, went missing Feb. 13.
