Alberta murder trial hears testimony from undercover Mountie known as Mr. Big
RED DEER, Alta. — “Mr. Big” took the stand Friday at the trial of two central Alberta men accused of killing three members of a family.
Jason Klaus and Joshua Frank are each charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the 2013 deaths of Gordon, Sandra and Monica Klaus.
An undercover Mountie who posed as an organized crime boss known as Mr. Big testified how RCMP staged a sting operation in the hope of getting Klaus to confess to killing his own family.
The court has heard that Klaus eventually admitted that he helped plan their deaths, but said it was Frank who shot them before burning the farmhouse they were in to the ground.
