H.P. court docket
Dec. 9, 2024
Justice S.P. Hinkley
A woman wandering along a highway during her curfew has added to her criminal record.
Angela Carla Bigstone, 33, of the Desmarais- Wabasca area, was fined $100 after pleading guilty to failing to comply with release conditions in High Prairie Court of Justice on Dec. 9.
Bigstone was given no time to pay as Justice S.P. Hinkley considered the fine paid by her time already served in jail.
Court heard Bigstone was on order to serve a curfew from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m., Crown prosecutor Nuha Abunada said.
Wabascas-Desmarais RCMP officers were on patrol on Dec. 6 when Bigstone was seen away from her home during her curfew.
“Police saw Ms. Bigstone on the highway,” the Crown said.
“This is a very early guilty plea,” she added.
Duty council James Robertson says she is taking responsibility with an early guilty plea.
“It’s a sign of remorse, Robertson told court.
Justice S.P. Hinkley said Bigstone should have known better.
“You were out of your residence when you were not supposed to.”
Brent Jonathon Anderson was fined $3,000, including the victim fine surcharge, after pleading guilty to driving a motor vehicle with no insurance.
Time to pay was grantd to Dec. 8, 2025.
