Quebec prosecutors added new charges on Friday, including murder, in connection with the discovery earlier this month of human remains in the provincial capital area.
François Bouchard, 31, of Contrecoeur, Que., was charged with first-degree murder at the Quebec City courthouse in the killing of Santiago Gaona. His co-accused, Cassandra Major, 31, of Prévost, Que., and Jean-Phillipe Lamontagne, 44, Blainville, Que., were charged with accessory after the fact to murder.
