Saint John Police make arrest in connection with 2021 suspicious death
Saint John Police have arrested a 34-year-old woman for improperly interfering with human remains in connection with the 2021 death of Courtney MacKenzie.
Police say the woman arrested was also charged in connection with four other investigations, but was released from custody with a number of conditions.
Court dates are scheduled for July 25 and Oct. 4.
MacKenzie was first reported missing to police on May 8, 2021, but the 27-year-old had not been seen for a week before that.
Thee days after she was reported missing, police located the body of MacKenzie at a residence on Victoria Street, in the North End of Saint John, where she was pronounced deceased.
Police say a 36-year-old man was also arrested, but was later released from custody with no charges at this time.
