Transgender woman Gabriella Sears, accused in Darren Middleton's 2021 murder, had trial delayed due to illness and evidence disputes.
A murder trial in Kelowna, British Columbia, resumed in March 2026 but saw limited progress as transgender woman Gabriella Sears, charged with second-degree murder and interference with human remains in the 2021 death of Darren Middleton, fell ill. Middleton’s body was found in her home with severe injuries.
Crown evidence included clothing and a black Lululemon bag with items matching the crime scene, but the court ruled the bag’s connection to Sears insufficient for admission.
A prior confession was excluded due to alleged rights violations.
The trial has faced repeated delays, including defense team changes and a psychiatric evaluation confirming Sears’ fitness to stand trial.
The case is set to resume in June 2026.
