One of three people ordered to stand trial, in connection with numerous robberies on the Muscowpetung First Nation in 2019, was back in court on Friday (Jan. 29).

27-year-old Muscowpetung resident Jarrett Poitras was remanded in custody, with his trial set for November 1-5, in Regina Court of Queen’s Bench.

In December, one of his two co-accused, 22-year-old Michael Obey of Regina, pled guilty to four charges, including Theft over Five-Thousand Dollars, and was sentenced to 1,066 days in prison.

On March 4th, 2019, RCMP say a convenience store on the reserve was robbed of money and tobacco products, and then on July 23rd, the same store was robbed, and a home on the reserve was broken into.
