It will be a while before we are told how 20 year old Candace Kalmokoff died. The nursing student's body was found New Year's Day in the alleyway behind the Remax offices on 15th Avenue.

Police say policy from the Coroner's Office will not allow the information on cause of death to be released until it is presented in court. We do know, Candace was murdered in her home, and her body was then moved to the alleyway.

There has also been a change in the charge being faced by the 19 year old man accused in Candace's death. Originally Vernon Kyle Wilson was charged with manslaughter, but that has now been upgraded to a charge of first degree murder. The change came about following new, sworn information in the case.

Wilson is expected back in court February 10th to fix a date for arraignment.
