Four-time no-show suspect in custody
Jean-Paul Dezainde, 36, of Hampton, just assigned counsel by legal aid, court hears
A Hampton man who failed to attend court in Fredericton four times on a stolen-vehicle charge is in custody and awaiting pleas.
A Fredericton provincial court judge issued an arrest warrant Feb. 13 for Jean-Paul Dezainde, 36, of Acadia Crescent in Hampton, when he didn’t turn up in court that day to answer to several charges.
He’s accused of possessing a stolen 2010 Ford F150 belonging to the City of Saint John in Fredericton on June 29, and failing to attend court Nov. 12 and Dec. 17.
