A woman accused of leaving the scene of a deadly accident near Fredericton will have her court appearance delayed by three weeks. Vanessa Ricketson, 27, is facing charges related to the death of a 19-year-old man from Norton on the Trans-Canada Highway near Oromocto. She was supposed to choose a trial mode at Fredericton provincial court on Tuesday but was not present. Defense lawyer Shane Hill, representing Emily Cochrane, requested more time for evidence disclosure, leading to the new court date being set for September 1 by Judge Lyne Raymond. The victim, who followed safety measures like pulling off the highway, wearing a reflective vest, and activating the vehicle’s flashers, has not been named by the police. The RCMP has not confirmed if Ricketson matches the person of interest mentioned two days after the March 19 crash. Ricketson was charged nearly four months later and is currently not in police custody.
