The trial for the teen accused of murdering Laura Szendrei has been pushed back.
The trial in Surrey provincial court will now start a week later – on Aug. 20 – for the case of the then-17-year-old accused of killing the Delta teen.
Fifteen-year-old Szendrei’s badly beaten body was found in Mackie Park on Sept. 25, 2010 and she died the next day.
Police have never officially revealed how Szendrei was killed.
A number of weeks have been set aside for the trial – expected to go, on-and-off, until Oct. 4 – but the dates could still change.
The accused killer cannot be named, under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
