A Prince Albert man accused of possessing child pornography will be going to trial this fall.

Roger D. Williams, 43, was the subject of an investigation by the Saskatchewan Internet Child Exploitation Unit.

He was arrested on March 1 of last year after Prince Albert Police executed a search warrant on his West Flat home.

Officers confiscated a laptop from the residence, along with hundreds of sexual photos and video images of underage girls, some believed to be as young as three years old.

He's pleaded not guilty to the single count.

The charges keep coming for a man accused of scamming dozens of people out of deposits on an apartment he didn't own.

Jason Allen Hartlin, 33, was looking at 18 counts of fraud for allegedly stealing cash deposits as high as $1,100 from prospective renters he met through the Kijiji classifieds site. The would-be tenants discovered the ruse when they showed up to move in.

Alleged Kijiji scammer Jason Hartlen will make his first court appearance in Saskatoon next week.

The 33-year-old is facing 17 charges of fraud under $5,000 after police received complaints that a man was collecting damage deposits for an apartment he didn't own.

As of Thursday, a total of 26 people filed complaints with Saskatoon Police, saying they were scammed by Hartlen. Briant said that adds up to $27,275 in missing cash.

In a five-to-two vote, the Supreme Court agreed with the reasons for the acquittal of April Dawn Halkett.

“The trial judge did not err in acquitting the respondent on the basis that this subjective fault requirement had not been proved,” wrote Justice Thomas Cromwell in the majority Supreme Court decision. “The Court of Appeal was correct to uphold the acquittal.”

The attorney general of Saskatchewan is appealing the 18-month conditional sentence of Bonnie McLachlan, the former Prince Albert school teacher convicted of sexual exploitation last month.

The question of whether a gunshot that went off in a truck was meant to hit a man in the front seat is the central argument in the attempted murder trial for two Saskatoon brothers.
