Justice Richard Danyliuk presented the option to Fertuck, during a case management conference on Wednesday,
“You could get up there and testify. If you do that, of course, the other counsel will have questions for you,” Danyliuk said, reminding Fertuck he’s has no obligation to take the stand.
Fertuck is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Sheree Fertuck.
The Crown believes Fertuck shot and killed Sheree at a gravel pit near Kenaston, Sask. Her body has never been found.
The Crown's case relies heavily on an alleged confession Fertuck made to undercover RCMP officers during a complex sting operation.
While the Crown has closed its case, the defence isn’t done.
