A Prince George man has been charged with homicide in connection with the death of his wife, Karen Marie Jordan, in 2013.

Paul Tamasi, 57, was arrested by Grande Prairie RCMP and is due to appear in Grande Prairie Provincial Court on Monday.

Evidence gathered by police in the Alberta city, 535 kilometres northwest of Prince George, suggests Jordan was last seen with Tamasi in November 2013. Jordan, 47, was first reported missing in February 2016.

Her body was found last September after ground searches were conducted near Wembley, Alta., by investigators and members of the Alberta RCMP Special Tactical Operations Team, assisted by local Search and Rescue personnel.

The discovery of Jordan’s remains culminated a multi-year investigation by police from the Grande Prairie RCMP General Investigations Section and Alberta RCMP  Serious Crimes Branch.
