A man accused of shooting his estranged wife said he lied to undercover officers about the killing.
Greg Fertuck is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Sheree Fertuck.
The 51-year-old woman went missing in 2015 near Kenaston, Sask. Her body has never been found.
Fertuck is representing himself in the trial. His original lawyers withdrew from the case, after Fertuck went behind their backs and made complaints about them to the Law Society of Saskatchewan.
In an unexpected twist, Fertuck called one of his former lawyers Morris Bodnar as a witness. Some members of the gallery gasped as Bodnar entered the courtroom.
Fertuck's questioning was often met with objection from the Crown. He was reprimanded by the judge for making statements after questions and using editorialized language.
"We're not in a playground. We're not in a bar. This is a very serious matter. I think stick to the facts," Justice Richard Danyliuk told Fertuck.
