A man accused of killing two boys in Saint John last winter will stand trial in June 2026.

Roman Kamyshnyy, 45, appeared in Saint John Court of King's Bench on Monday remotely from custody over the phone.

He is charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of the boys — aged 10 and 17 — on Jan. 29.

Police found their bodies inside an apartment on Skaling Court in Millidgeville in the city's north end around 7 a.m., while responding to a 911 call.
