The highest court of Nova Scotia has sustained the eviction of a couple who allegedly ran a drug house frequented by a few young people commonly known as “Society’s Rejects.”
Delilah Delores Dixon and Peter Sheldon MacKinnon of northern Cape Breton were two people who were creating a lot of trouble around the neighborhood. A number of complaints against the couple were registered at the Crime Stoppers.
Earlier last year, the couple was forced to move out of their residence for about two months by the Nova Scotia Supreme Court. To support the verdict, Justice Patrick Murray referred to the increasing number of complaints. The couple was later charged with drug abuse and possession.
“The claims being made lack specificity – There’s no dates, no times, no amounts or types of drugs being alluded to. None of that stuff existed in the suggestions that this place is being used as a drug house,” said the couple’s lawyer, Tony Mozvik.
An RCMP officer reportedly described finding cocaine in a child’s crib during a warrant-authorized search in December 2009. Both Dixon and MacKinnon have criminal records relating to drugs.
The couple has been ordered to pay $2,000 penalty, inclusive of disbursements and costs on the stay application.
