Must have been something, heard also he took off the insurance just prior to the fire so he couldn't get charge with insurance fraud. Also mechanics tool boxes were set outside the back door the night before, how does that happen. Don't worry the cops probably had so much on him, waiting for him to crack,

Anyways his first court date was April 25th, any one hear what the latest is?

No evidence to convict. Someone else did it. Disgruntled past employee or maybe a meth head. Police are looking in a diff rent direction now one would have to assume. Meanwhile owner has to live with false accusations for rest of life.

Now these are just rumors but I was told by several residents of st.paul that there was videos of him wheeling the mechanics tool boxes outside before it burnt........

I mean it's pretty suspicious that both of his buildings burnt the same night, and only a few weeks after his other location in Cold Lake shut down. Hard not to draw conclusions there.

Yep obviously not good enough quality to hold up in court. Amazing what a good lawyer can doo! Pun intended. I do feel bad the guy to have a business come to an end after to many years.

Why didn’t they present evidence in court then? Probably because it all started with a rumour.

hmmmm, heard they're investigating the two guys that were charged with all the fires around the province(mostly in Edson at the pet store and dodge and honda dealers) for this fire too...
