Jeffery Kitchen of Brussels pled
guilty to several charges related to
firearms in Wingham on July 15
resulting in several fines stemming
from an incident on October 11 of
2009.
Kitchen pled guilty to three of his
five original counts as well as a
Section 117, which would require an
immediate forfeiture of all his
firearms, not just those involved in
the incident, for the next five years.
Judge R.G.E. Hunter found
Kitchen guilty of careless storage of
a firearm, careless storage of
ammunition and possession of a
controlled substance. He was
sentenced to pay a $250 fine for each
convicted count as well as a 12-
month probation term in addition to
the five-year weapons prohibition.
Kitchen was travelling through
North Huron, police said, when he
entered a RIDE checkpoint and
police notice a shotgun in plain sight
as well as several marijuana
cigarettes in a clear pill bottle in
plain view on the passenger seat of
Kitchen’s car.
In addition to the gun, Kitchen
also had several shotgun shells that
he was transporting in an unsafe
manner, police said.
Crown Attorney Clayton Conlan
said that the gun was loaded and the
safety was off when police
recovered the shotgun. Upon further
questioning, Kitchen revealed that
he had several other firearms at his
girlfriend’s home in Goderich, some
registered and some unregistered.
Once Kitchen was arrested, he was
detained in Wingham and
questioned about his other firearms
in the concern of public safety.
Police say that once they arrived at
Kitchen’s girlfriend’s house, they
found nine firearms, over 6,000
rounds of ammunition and several
pictures of Kitchen posing with the
aforementioned firearms, as well as
pictures of him posing with an
outdoor marijuana grow operation,
something Kitchen denied, but
Hunter deemed inconsequential to
the case since there were no charges
pertained to an outdoor marijuana
grow operation.
Kitchen said he would need one
year to pay his fines in their entirety.
PASSING BAD CHEQUES
Darrell McIntyre was found guilty
of several counts of property damage
and settled seven counts of false
pretenses, paying off bad cheques
that he passed to several local
businesses in May of 2008,
including the Winthrop General
Store, Radford’s Fuels and
Scrimgeour’s Food Market.
McIntyre, now of Collingwood,
formerly of RR3, Lucknow, was
found guilty of damaging a 2007
Toyota Sienna, as well as a 1999
Dodge Caravan in separate
incidents.
McIntyre pled guilty to the two
mischief charges, as well as taking a
vehicle without permission and
careless driving.
McIntyre was ordered to pay
restitution to the owners of the
Dodge Caravan, who were his
landlords at the time. Conlan said
that after a dispute between the two
parties, damage was done by
McIntyre to the Caravan, breaking
the rear window and a tail light.
McIntyre was ordered to pay the
$300 insurance deductible to the
family, as well as an additional
$1,237.38 to the insurance company
to cover the balance of the damages.
The balance of the charges
stemmed from an incident on Blyth
Road on August 15, 2009, where
McIntyre and his then girlfriend
were visiting the girlfriend’s
grandparents.
McIntyre was involved with a
verbal altercation with his
girlfriend’s grandfather and he left in
her car, taking her with him. From
this incident, came the other
charges, of mischief and careless
driving. Once the car was stopped,
Conlan said, McIntyre kicked the
car. The car, however, has since been
sold and the damage was never
repaired.
McIntyre, in addition to the
restitution, was ordered to pay a
$500 fine for the careless driving
charge.
MISCHIEF
Corey Gibson of RR1, Fordwich
pled guilty to mischief, resulting in
$1,000 of restitution stemming from
the Sept 12, 2009 incident.
Gibson, Conlan said, trespassed
on a Howick property at
approximately 3 a.m. and shot the
victim’s Corvette, house, motorcycle
and a cage full of cats with a
paintball gun, causing significant
damage.
Gibson, who took part in this with
another person, had his paintball gun
seized as a result of the incident.
Gibson was ordered, in addition to
his restitution, to stay away from the
victim’s property.
ASSAULT
Kyle Procter pled guilty to assault
in relation to an incident involving
his then girlfriend on January 11.
Conlan said the incident began
with a heated verbal exchange
between the two, which led to
“chest-to-chest arguing”.
Procter then pushed his girlfriend
back with both hands into a window,
after which she responded by
pushing him back, Conlan said.
A tussle then ensued with Procter
ending up on top in a choking
position, Conlan said, something
Procter disputed. Upon getting up,
the pair continued to struggle and
Procter pushed his girlfriend into a
door, which resulted in her splitting
her lip, Conlan said.
Procter was granted a conditional
discharge with 12 months probation.
Procter’s defense counsel said that
counselling had already been sought
by Procter and the Children’s Aid
Society had already signed off,
allowing Procter to see his child,
whom he fathered with the victim, if
he so wishes.
TEXT MESSAGE THREATS
Shane Hoyle, formerly of
Wingham, now of Brampton, pled
guilty to uttering threats to his then
girlfriend.
The incident, which took place in
Wingham on April 5, involved Hoyle
threatening to damage his
girlfriend’s apartment while she
wasn’t there, damaging many of her
baby items for their child, Conlan
said.
Hoyle was staying at the
apartment while his girlfriend was in
Brampton and he began sending her
text messages, saying that he would
“trash” her apartment, Conlan said.
Hoyle had been staying there on
his own for three or four weeks,
Conlan said.
Hoyle was given a condition
discharge by Hunter with 12 months
probation. He was also instructed to
not have any contact with his now
ex-girlfriend unless it was to arrange
visitation with the couple’s child.
POSSESSION
Andrew Pfaff was given a
conditional discharge and six
months probation after marijuana
was found in his car during a traffic
stop in North Huron.
Federal Crown Attorney Mike
Donnelly said Pfaff was in
possession of 128 grams and that the
bag was in plain view of the
Wingham Police officer conducting
the traffic stop.

Weapons ban for local man
On July 14, at approximately 1
p.m., a Goderich woman received a
call from a female who identified
herself as the woman’s daughter.
The victim stated that the woman
sounded a bit like her daughter. The
“daughter” stated, “Mom, I need
help, I'm in Montreal, Sally won
tickets to a concert for two, all paid.
After the concert I was driving a car,
hit another car and was then rear
ended. I have some stitches in my
lip. Sally has a neck brace on
because the air bag opened. Don't
tell dad but I need money.”
At that point a man came on the
phone and stated he was a lawyer in
Montreal and he has taken the case.
He advised the victim to send $5,000
by Western Union to repair the cars
and cover legal expenses. The male
stated he would call back for the 10-
digit number for the Western Union
transfer. The victim made
arrangements for the transfer and at
2:15 p.m. the man called back and
the victim provided him with the 10-
digit transfer code.
The male stated “Your daughter
will call you shortly to let you know
all is OK.”
The end result of this story is that
the caller got the victim’s money.
The daughter never called back
because this was a scam. The
“lawyer’s” name used was a valid
name in Montreal and he was in
court at the time of the scam.
At approximately 10 p.m. the
victim received a second phone call
from the same female and same
phone number (which does not work
for incoming calls).
The female stated “Mom, I'm so
tired. I got all the paperwork done.”
At this point the victim asked the
female for her phone number so she
could call her “daughter” back. The
female abruptly hung up the phone.
Pressure is the tactic used here.
There is an urgency presented to the
victim that causes them to make
hasty decisions.
This is a popular scam this spring
and we are urging people to be
prepared and vigilant of these scam
artists. If you think it might be a true
family member in distress, ask them
some personal questions that would
only be known by “the real McCoy”.
72-year-old woman scammed of $5,000
