Trial Dates To Be Set In November For Pair Accused Of Alleged Mall Shooting Plot

The Canadian Press, 06 Aug, 2015 10:56 AM
    HALIFAX — Two young people accused of plotting to shoot shoppers at a Halifax mall made a brief court appearance today for a pre-trial hearing.
     
    Lawyers for 23-year-old Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath of Geneva, Illinois, and 21-year-old Randall Steven Shepherd of Halifax, told the court there are still volumes of disclosure information to provide to the Crown before trial dates can be set.
     
    Another pre-trial conference has been scheduled for Nov. 6 to assess where the two sides stand.
     
    Trial dates are scheduled to be set on Nov. 19.
     
    The Crown alleges the two accused, along with a 19-year-old man found dead in his Halifax home, had planned to attack the Halifax Shopping Centre on Valentine's Day.
     
    None of the allegations have been proven in court.
