A new court date has been set for a Kawacatoose First Nation man, charged in connection with a death on the reserve.

34-year-old Eric Favel’s jury trial is set for April in Regina Court of King’s Bench, and he remains in custody, with his next court appearance scheduled for March 19th.

In November of 2021, Punnichy RCMP responded to a report of an injured male at a Kawacatoose home.

Thomas Dustyhorn was taken to hospital in Saskatoon, where he later died of his injuries.
