Accessory to murder charges have been stayed by the prosecution, against two men accused following the discovery of dismembered human remains last summer.

Eddy Guitard, 46, had his charge stayed by the Crown in a Barrie courtroom Wednesday; two months after Dave Dumont, 47, had his accessory charge stayed. Both men were released from custody.

A staying of charges means the Crown has one year to resume prosecution against them, should it choose to do so.

Guitard and Dumont were accused of being involved in the alleged murders of missing men William “Blake” Robinson, 45, and David “Kyle” Cheesequay, 41, whose remains were discovered at the Barrie encampment near Anne Street South and in Huntsville, according to investigators.

Police had searched several areas including a property in North Simcoe County.

Barrie police arrested Robert Ladouceur, 53, in August. He was charged with first- and second-degree murder in the investigation that began when Robinson was reported missing in January 2025 followed by Cheesequay six months later.

Ladouceur is accused of 33 charges that include committing an indignity to a dead body, weapons, and drug trafficking counts.

Police confirmed both deceased and Ladouceur lived together at some point in the Barrie encampment and knew one another.

Ladouceur remains behind bars and is represented by defence lawyer Anthony Bryant.

The allegations against the accused have not been tested in court.
