Charges approved in relation to a 2023 homicide investigation in the Cariboo

A man has been charged in connection with a 2023 homicide.

North District Corporal Madonna Sunderson said Williams Lake RCMP responded on December 8, 2023, to the Cariboo Memorial Hospital for a report of a deceased 7 week old infant.

“There were signs of trauma and police were immediately notified.” Saunderson said, “Police attended the family home where they found another child suffering from trauma. E Division Major Crime was called and assumed conduct of the investigation.”

Saunderson said the BC Prosecution Service has approved charges in relation to this investigation and on Friday, May 23, 2025, Russel Solomon was arrested for second degree murder and assault causing bodily harm in relation to the second child.

Police said he remains in custody.
