EDMONTON - Police say bail has been denied to Travis Vader after charges of first-degree murder he faced in the deaths of an Edmonton couple were re-activated.
RCMP say Vader was brought to court on Saturday to determine whether bail should be granted, but was ordered to be held in custody until his next court appearance on Tuesday.
Vader was first charged in 2012 -- two years after Lyle and Marie McCann disappeared in July 2010.
Both counts of murder were not proceeded with in March and police had one year to re-activate them.
He was arrested on Friday -- his lawyer Brian Beresh said his client was "very upset" over being taken back into custody.
Police discovered the charred remains of the elderly couple's motorhome but their bodies have never been found.
