Accused Teen Murderer Back in Court

A 15-year-old girl charged with first-degree murder in the death of an elderly New Brunswick man is back in court today to have a trial date set. She's charged in the stabbing death of 78-year-old Frank Tonge of Damascus and has elected trial by judge alone. Tonge died in his home from a single stab wound to his upper body

The case was adjourned last month to give lawyers time to review a court-ordered psychiatric assessment of the girl.
