On October 16, 2024 at around 3:50 p.m., Southey RCMP received a report of an assault at a residence in Saskatchewan Beach. Police determined a man assaulted a woman, who reported non-life-threatening injuries to police.
As a result of an investigation, Hewton was charged with one count of assault. A warrant was issued for his arrest and Southey RCMP were actively searching for him until his arrest.
"This is my first assault charge," Hewton said while appearing by phone in Regina Provincial Court Monday. "I am terrified of it going as an indictable offense because it was never intended to be like this."
Hewton's conditional release includes a non-contact order with his former mayoral campaign manager, her sister and her sister’s family. The order also prohibits him from being with 500 meters of their home, workplace or place of education.
He also banned of being in possession of firearms or weapons and must attend court when assigned.
"For now, the Crown will consent to [Hewton’s] release," said Crown Prosecutor Alexandra Findlay. "Although [he] should be aware this is the last the Crown will be willing to do so should more charges be forthcoming."
