Man accused in sled dog slaughter gets new court date
NORTH VANCOUVER, B.C. – A man facing mass cruelty charges in the killing of dozens of sled dogs in 2010 has had his next court appearance moved to August.
Robert Fawcett’s lawyer, Greg Diamond, says the defence is going through “a lot of evidence” and needs more time to review it.
Fawcett will now next appear Aug. 16.
Fifty-six dogs were dug up near Whistler in January 2011 after information surfaced that a post-traumatic stress disorder claim to WorksafeBC was filed by Fawcett.
