According to court records, Singleton has no prior convictions but the same can’t be said for her co-accused, who has a lengthy list of previous criminal charges.

According to court records, Sellars was on probation at the time of the Westwold incident.

His previous criminal charges stem from incidents in Williams Lake, Terrace, and Abbotsford and include weapons and assault offences, driving while prohibited, resisting arrests and failing to live up to probation conditions.

Sellars is scheduled to be back in court on January 6.
