Moulton’s aunt, who says he was born in Saint John, was among those in court to show support and described her nephew as a good kid.

“He was brought up decent,” said Shirley Robinson.”He probably steered a little wrong and sometimes we all do.”

Meanwhile, 40-year-old Marie Antonette Bugay, who police say is a known associate of Moulton, is due in court Friday morning on drug and weapons charges.
