Child sexual exploitation, arson, trafficking among cases in local court

It was a busy morning on Wednesday in Swift Current Provincial Court, as matters involving the arson of a business, child pornography, weapons, methamphetamine, and cocaine were among those addressed. Gull Lake man Among the first court appearances of the morning was 25-year-old Tyson Goertz of Gull Lake, who was represented in court by his lawyer, Scott Allen, with Saskatchewan Legal Aid. Allen said he still needed time to review the disclosure, and requested that the matter be put over to the morning of October 21. Goertz was charged with a trio of counts after a search warrant was executed on June 16. He faces charges of possession of child sexual abuse and exploitation material, making available child sexual abuse and exploitation material, and distributing child sexual abuse and exploitation material. Alleged arson update The owner of the Halftime Huddle in Leader, who was charged after a fire destroyed the business last October, had his matter heard in court, although his appearance was waived and he was not personally present. Related Stories: Gull Lake man charged with child exploitation-related offences Leader arson case delayed as defence reviews new child sexual abuse material charge Local man charged during Swift Current drug & weapon bust Two Swift Current residents face drug related charges following investigation Several charges were laid against Rajinderpal Basran, including arson with disregard for human life, arson with intent to defraud, and fraud over $5,000. Recently, a second man, Navjot Singh, was charged in connection with the alleged arson. This past summer, Basran was also charged with possession of child sexual abuse and exploitation material. Since his court date in Leader, not much progress was made in reviewing the new disclosure, and his case was adjourned to October 7. Charges from local drug busts Swift Current's Travis Smith was also represented by Allen and received an adjournment to the October 21 date. Following the execution of a search warrant at a trailer court on May 15 of this year, Swift Current RCMP seized 227 grams of methamphetamine, 662 grams of dried cannabis, several imitation firearms, and a stun baton. Smith was charged with six counts, including possession of methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, and unauthorized possession of a prohibited weapon. Local couple, Tyler Adamson and Kimberley Adamson Morrow, were also on the docket, facing one count of trafficking cocaine and one count of possession for the purpose of trafficking. The pair were charged as a result of two search warrants that were executed last December, during which 51 grams of cocaine were located. Both are scheduled to appear back in Swift Current Provincial Court on October 14.
