Addict found passed out in running car
Zacary Robert Morris, 25, of Fredericton, sentenced to time served for lesser crimes but remains in custody on outstanding allegations of drug possession for trafficking purposes
A Fredericton man was sentenced this week to time already served for having care and control of a car while high, possessing a stolen car and fleeing from police, but he remains in custody.
Zacary Robert Morris, 25, of Needham Street, appeared in Fredericton provincial court in custody Wednesday for a sentencing hearing on various charges.
However, he also faces outstanding counts alleging drug-trafficking activity that he’s denied and for which he’s set to stand trial.
Those charges include possessing meth, fentanyl and cocaine for the purposes of trafficking, possessing the proceeds of crime - $2,340 in Canadian currency - all alleged to have occurred March 30.
An evidentiary hearing in the case is scheduled for June 3 in provincial court, and the trial is slated for Aug. 11 and 12.
