'The woman on trial for the first-degree murder of a drug dealer whose body was found in a barrel near the Thames River was used as a “dupe” for the actual perpetrators of the crime, defence counsel said Wednesday.'

''The lawyer for Ashley Bourget, who pleaded not guilty in the death of Grant Norton, a drug dealer with ties to a Hamilton crime family, pinned the blame for the killing of the 59-year-old in July 2020 on other people, and accused them of planting evidence at the scene to incriminate her client, during closing remarks Wednesday.

“Ashley was a person who was set up to take the fall for this crime. . . . They used Ashley as a dupe. They used her house as a crime scene. They left her with a dead body. They left her with all the incriminating evidence,” defence counsel Mary Cremer said. ''
