A preliminary hearing has been set for an alleged Hells Angels affiliate facing first-degree murder charges in relation to the deaths of a Center Burlington, Hants County couple.
Curtis Blair Lynds, a convicted drug trafficker serving time in federal prison, faces two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Barry Kirk Mersereau and Nancy Christensen. The couple was found slain in their home in September 2000.
Lynds, 34, was not present during a Windsor provincial court proceeding yesterday when Judge Alan Tufts set aside Oct. 11 to 28, excluding Oct. 19 to 21, for a preliminary hearing in relation to his case. The preliminary hearing will take place in Kentville provincial court. A brief focus hearing is scheduled for July 18 in Windsor.
Lynds, a resident of 191 Hiram Lynds Road in North River, was charged on Dec. 13, 2010 with the double homicide. He also faces accessory after the fact charges in the deaths of Barry Kirk Mersereau's brother, outlaw biker Randy Mersereau, and innocent victim Charles Robert Maddison of Portapique.
It is alleged that Lynds helped his uncle, Jeff Lynds, flee custody, knowing he was responsible for the death of Randy Mersereau, who went missing in 1999. It is believed Randy Mersereau had a falling out with the Hells Angels prior to his disappearance. His remains were discovered Dec. 5, 2010, in a remote wooded area off the Hiram Lynds Road.
A second accessory after the fact charge was handed to Lynds in December, when 36-year-old Michael John Lawrence, of Windsor, was charged with the first-degree murder of Maddison, who went missing in September 2000.
Former East Mountain resident Les Greenwood, 41, is also facing an accessory after the fact charge in connection with Maddison's murder.
Along with Lynds, Greenwood and Lawrence also face two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of the Center Burlington couple.
