Missing woman found dead at Moose Jaw home, man charged with 2nd-degree murder

A man has been charged in connection with the death of a woman previously reported missing in Moose Jaw, police say.

Officers arrived Thursday at a home on South Hill where they found 42-year-old Tiffani Ellert dead, according to a news release from the Moose Jaw Police Service (MJPS).

Ellert was reported missing four days earlier by friends and family, who last saw her on the evening of Dec. 9, the release said.

Police said her death was immediately deemed suspicious and further investigation led to the arrest of Todd Donaldson.

The 56-year-old has been charged with second-degree murder in Ellert’s death.

Donaldson made his first court appearance Friday and was remanded until Jan. 29.

Police have not identified the relationship between Donaldson and Ellert, or the circumstances that led to her death.

The MJPS said it is continuing to investigate and asked anyone with information to contact them.
