The man accused of killing three people in southwestern Ontario before hiding out in a small Ottawa Valley town will appear in court Friday.

Jesse Imeson will make the appearance via video from a London, Ont. detention centre.

Imeson is charged in the death of a 25-year-old Windsor man and an elderly couple found slain in their farmhouse near London.

Jesse Imeson led police on an eight-day manhunt from Windsor, Ont. to the Ottawa Valley last summer.

He was captured in Portage-du-Fort, Que. after hiding out in a vacant cottage.
