    The daughter of Jennifer Hillier-Penney plans to attend every court appearance involving her father until she sees him sent to prison.

    Dean Penney appeared in Corner Brook Provincial court yesterday and the matter has been set over to Friday. He was arrested and charged with first degree murder in connection with the woman’s disappearance seven years ago from St. Anthony.
