The accused was charged with possession of fentanyl and cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, and possession of proceeds of crime, following the execution of a search warrant at a residence.
The Crown's case relied on circumstantial evidence, as the accused was found alone in a restricted room containing a drug processing station, hidden drugs, and cash.
The court applied the Villaroman test for circumstantial evidence and concluded that the only reasonable inference was that the accused had knowledge and control of the contraband.
The accused was found guilty on all charges.
