The suspect in the Nancy Swenty homicide has been found in Alberta.
RCMP arrested Russell McDiarmid Thursday at about 7:15 p.m. MT in a campground near Dead Man’s Flats, just east of Canmore.
McDiarmid, 51, was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant and is facing a charge of second-degree murder in the case after Swenty’s remains were found in late August. The 33-year-old Fisher Branch woman went missing on July 28 and an exhaustive search for her quickly ensued.
