There’s still no verdict in the Janson Baker double murder trial.

The jury remains sequestered after a fourth day of deliberations concluded on Sunday around 8 p.m.

Baker has pleaded not guilty to two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Bernard and Rose-Marie Saulnier.

The Dieppe couple were shot and killed inside their home on Sept. 7, 2019.

Baker was arrested and charged with their murders exactly four years later.

Several members of the Saulnier family were at the courthouse all weekend long.

Many of Baker’s family were present on Saturday.

The 12-person jury finished listening to audio recordings of one of the Crown’s key witnesses on Saturday.

The witness cannot be named due to a publication ban.

That concluded just after 3 p.m. and the jury has been sequestered since then.

The fifth day of deliberations is scheduled to being at 9 a.m. Monday.
