Trial scheduled for man charged in central Alberta shooting

Nov 22, 2022 | 1:59 PM

Trial dates have been set for a Maskwacis man accused of attempted murder.

Jesse Cabry, 30, is scheduled for trial in Wetaskiwin Court of King’s Bench from January 16-19, 2024.

His trial dates were set following a preliminary hearing held in Wetaskiwin provincial court on Nov. 21, 2022, to determine if his case had enough evidence to go to trial.

Cabry is charged with attempted murder with a firearm and pointing a firearm in the March 2, 2022 incident.

That’s when Maskwacis RCMP responded at 2:30 a.m. to a shots fired complaint at the Samson Cree Nation town site.
