Bernard murder suspect scheduled to return court

A man charged in the Cassidy Bernard case is expected back in court Friday.

Dwight Austin Isadore, 20, of Wagmatcook faces a count of second-degree murder in the death of his ex-girlfriend, as well as two counts of abandoning a child.

Bernard, a 22-year-old mother of infant twins, was found dead in a We’koqma’q home in Oct. 2018; her children were found by her side.

RCMP announced the charges against Isadore in December; he’s been in custody since his arrest.

He’s scheduled for election-and-plea in Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court at 9:30 a.m.; The Hawk will be there.

The hearing was adjourned in January.
