“You are young, you can turn this around”.
That is part of what Judge Andrew LeMesurier said to 26-year-old Chaz Daigle during his sentencing hearing on charges relating to two armed robberies last fall in Saint John and Quispamsis.
Shots were fired in both robberies but no one was hurt.
Daigle plead guilty to use of a weapon in an armed robbery and for having ammunition while prohibited.
He was sentenced to 38 months in prison which includes 10 months credit for the time he has already spent in jail.

Judge LeMesurier noted this was not Daigle’s first offence but also that he has support saying people care about you.
“You are intelligent, you don’t have to be a criminal, you can be a law abiding citizen”.
