BR979B/980B Matthew Armstrong of Kitchener will be on probation for the next 18 months as a result of an incident that took place in Whitechurch on May 30, 2014. Judge G.J. Brophy handed Armstrong a suspended sentence and the lengthy probation term in Wingham court on Jan. 22. Armstrong will also have to pay a victim fine surcharge of $100 per charge. He will have six months to pay the fines. Armstrong pled guilty to one charge of possession of stolen property and one charge of failing to comply with the terms of his probation. Provincial Crown Attorney Laura Grant told Brophy that Huron OPP was conducting a R.I.D.E. checkpoint in Whitechurch when a pickup truck being driven by Armstrong entered. After speaking with the driver, officer discovered that he was a suspended driver. Armstrong, however, was complaining about sore ribs, saying that he had been in a fight in Sauble Beach earlier that evening. Officers transported him to Wingham Hospital and while Armstrong was being attended to, officers investigated Armstrong’s vehicle further. He eventually admitted he had stolen the vehicle from a Huron- Kinloss residence. At the time, Grant said, Armstrong was on probation, which stemmed from a previous charge of possession of stolen property. Due to his lengthy criminal record – 27 offenses between youth and adult convictions – Grant suggested a 30-day term of incarceration for each charge as well as a 12-month term of probation. Armstrong’s defense attorney illustrated that Armstrong had a difficult upbringing and he has been in and out of trouble with the law his whole life. However, now holding down a steady job, he was making efforts to straighten his life out. Armstrong went to Sauble Beach for the Victoria Day weekend and was attacked at a beach party, he said, resulting in serious injuries and the removal of his spleen. He said that while stealing the truck to get help was not the proper course of action, there’s no doubt that Armstrong was in a critical condition at the time. “I’m sorry for coming to your county and doing what I had to do,” Armstrong said, addressing the court. “I’m sorry for wasting your time.” Considering the defense’s submission, Brophy felt Armstrong would not benefit from incarceration and instead imposed a term of probation. RESISTING ARREST Jason Richardson of Wingham pled guilty to three charges originating from an incident that took place in front of his home on Sept. 27, 2014. Richardson was charged with resisting arrest, operating a vehicle with over 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood and operating a vehicle without insurance. Just after 1:30 a.m. the morning of Sept. 27, a Wingham Police Services officer was patrolling Wingham when a motorcyclist not wearing a helmet passed him. Officers attempted to conduct a traffic stop, but the driver of the motorcycle did not stop immediately. The driver, later identified as Richardson, instead went to his home and parked the vehicle in his driveway. Upon stepping off of the motorcycle, Grant said, Richardson was unsteady on his feet and began to walk away from the officer. When the officer, Const. Jamie Leslie, attempted to take control of Richardson’s arm, Richardson pulled away and tensed up. Leslie soon gained control of Richardson, but when the pair were in front of Leslie’s cruiser, Richardson kicked the car and pulled Leslie by his shirt and bulletproof vest, raised his fist and attempted to punch the police officer. Leslie broke free of Richardson’s grasp, but Richardson was able to grab an earpiece from Leslie, which he then threw at the officer. Leslie eventually subdued Richardson with the help of pepper spray and officer backup. Back at the police station, Richardson posted alcohol level readings of 120 and 100 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood. It was also discovered that at the time of the incident, Richardson’s vehicle was not insured. Grant told Brophy that Richardson did indeed have a criminal record and that in 2002 there had been a similar incident involving a traffic violation, followed by resisting arrest. Grant suggested a fine of $1,500 for the alcohol charge, a $500 fine for resisting arrest and 12 months Truck theft results in probation Continued on page 19
