Alleged carjacker maintains innocence

Sep 10, 2026 | 3:00 PM

One of two people charged after a carjacking in Prince Albert has entered not guilty pleas and is now awaiting trial dates. 

Justice Kadachuk appeared by video when his matters were discussed Thursday morning at Prince Albert Provincial Court. In relation to the events that occurred last March, Kadachuk was charged with possession of stolen property exceeding $5,000 and robbery. 

Police were called to the 2600 block of Second Ave. W. for a report of a vehicle that had been stolen at gunpoint. Arriving officers learned four people were allegedly taking a rideshare when one of them brandished a firearm and told the driver to exit the vehicle. 

The vehicle was brought to a stop on Kemp Crescent, and shortly after, another officer located Kadachuk in the unit block of Bowerman Crescent, where he was arrested without further incident. 

A search of the stolen vehicle did not result in police finding any items of evidentiary value. 

Kadachuk’s next scheduled court date is Sept. 16, at which time a bail hearing may be held and dates for trial may be set. 

The co-accused, Jasmine Beatty, was granted a stay of proceedings but remains in custody on other charges. 

Roughly three weeks after her arrest and release on bail, Beatty is alleged to have been a passenger in an SUV that fled from police at Deschambault Lake. A trial has been scheduled for November.
