In what appears to be a motiveless crime, a 21-year-old man has pleaded guilty to using fake ID on two occasions at Chances Casino in North Kamloops.
Jacob Cavanagh admitted in provincial court on Friday to using fake ID on one occasion and the driver’s licence of a friend to gain admission to the casino in the other. The charge under the Criminal Code is dealing with an identity document without excuse.
Crown prosecutor Neil Flanagan told provincial court judge Roy Dickey that on both occasions, Cavanagh knew the doorman personally, The doorman seized the ID and turned him away.
“It’s somewhat puzzling in the sense that I’m not sure what motivated Mr. Cavanagh to use the ID,” Dickey said. “There seems to be no benefit.”
Dickey levied a $700 fine suggested in a joint submission by the Crown and defence lawyer Brad Smith.
