RCMP have laid charges in relation to the death of a Brandon man last fall.
The remains of James Vernon Giesbrecht were found in the trunk of a burned-out Honda Accord om October 13th in the R-M of Cornwalis.
A forensic investigation identified the 37-year-old as the victim in January of this year, a month after he had been reported missing.
It also determined that he did not die as a result of the vehicle fire.
Three suspects that were already in custody were arrested and charged on Monday.
28-year-old Redstone Wombdiska, and 36-year-old Joseph Lindsay are both charged with first-degree murder, while 40-year-old Christopher Cutlip, faces a second-degree murder charge.
