RICHMOND, B.C. – A man formerly listed as a resident of Hornby Island has been charged with one count of manslaughter.

Police are saying they believe the death is suspicious, and it appears as though Dey and Pallot were in a relationship.

Dey’s name appeared in the news in 2017, when the RCMP issued a missing persons bulletin for the 23-year-old.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) is working alongside the Richmond RCMP and the BC Coroners Service. The investigation is in its early stages, according to the IHIT.

Anyone with further details is asked to contact the IHIT tip line at 1-877-551-4448 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) if they wish to remain anonymous.
