      EDMONTON — A man accused of killing three people in southern Alberta last year will go to trial without a preliminary hearing.
       
      Derek Saretzky is charged with first-degree murder in the deaths of Terry Blanchette, his two-year-old daughter Hailey Dunbar-Blanchette, and Hanna Meketech.
       
      Alberta Justice says the Crown will proceed on the charges against Saretzky by direct indictment.
       
      A preliminary hearing for Saretzky in the Blanchette and Dunbar-Blanchette cases was to begin on June 20.
       
      The three bodies were found over several days in the Blairmore area last September.
       
      Saretzky is to appear in court on June 13.
