Police have laid charges in the murders of a former Hells Angel, his brother and his brother�s wife.
Leslie Douglas Greenwood has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the shooting of Barry Kirk Mersereau and Nancy Paula Christensen in 2000. He is also charged with the attempted murder of ex-Hells Angel Randy Mersereau in 1999 and being an accessory after the fact in the murder of Randy Mersereau later that same year.
RCMP arrested Greenwood without incident at a residence in Bramber, Hants County at 12:30 a.m. Thursday, RCMP provincial spokeswoman Sgt. Brigdit Leger said.
The 41-year-old who has no fixed address was held overnight and taken to Halifax provincial court Friday for arraignment on the charges. He remained in cells during the brief proceeding as duty counsel John Black appeared on his behalf. The lawyer waived reading of the charges and the case was moved to Truro provincial court on Jan. 11 to set a date for a preliminary hearing. Greenwood was ordered to jail until that time.
Crown Shauna MacDonald said the case was heard in Halifax only because the Truro court wasn�t sitting on Friday.
Believed to be suffering from cancer, Greenwood has a series of convictions for offences, including drug possession, theft, break and enter, fraud, forgery, possessing a restricted or prohibited weapon, possessing a device to obtain telecommunication service and piracy.
Spokeswoman Leger answered few questions about the continuing investigation, but she did say that Greenwood was known to all three victims.
Kirk Mersereau and his wife Nancy were shot execution-style in their home in Centre Burlington, Hants Co. A neighbour discovered their bodies on Sept. 10, 2000. The couple's 18-month-old son was in his crib, unharmed.
