Court Report 2

Marjorie Nicholls, the 35-year-old charged with serious offences stemming from a break-in where the homeowner was present, scheduled a preliminary inquiry on Tuesday.

Bonnyville RCMP arrested Nicholls after identifying her driving a vehicle in the Centennial Centre parking lot with 33-year-old Anthony Marshall, who fled from the vehicle on foot after police arrived.

He was arrested and charged shortly after.

While searching the vehicle, police located a crossbow, rifle ammunition, a rifle barrel, red bandana, methamphetamine, a scale, and a meth pipe.

Officers believe Nicholls is connected to a break-in at a residence where multiple suspects ransacked a home while the owner was present. The suspects also stole the resident's vehicle.

As a result of these incidences, Nicholls is facing charges of unlawful confinement, robbery, and theft of a motor vehicle, among others.

She’s also charged with fraud under $5,000, possession of a controlled substance, and two counts of possessing identification belonging to another person. These charges relate to other matters before the court.

During her most recent court appearance on Tuesday, Nov. 5, Nicholls rescheduled her preliminary inquiry for Sept. 24, 2020.

She has been granted release just one month after police arrested her at the Bonnyville C2. She is on conditions to keep the peace, be of good behaviour, remain within her residence 24-hours per day everyday with the exception of four hours on Saturday so she can get the necessities of life. She is to abstain from the possession and consumption of alcohol and drugs, is to have no contact with any of the co-accused, reside with her father in Bonnyville, not posses any weapons, and have no financial instruments or identification documents belonging to anyone but herself, among others.
