Clayton Eichler to stand trial by judge and jury for alleged Regina murders

A Regina man alleged to have murdered two women two years ago has agreed to trial by judge and jury.

Clayton Eichler, 34, appeared in provincial court Monday morning for a scheduled preliminary hearing.

A judge was set to begin reviewing evidence to determine if Eichler should stand trial, but before that could begin, the crown entered a request to commit the case for trial, which the defence agreed to.
