Disgraced politician Donnie Snook was before the television cameras today for the first time since his arrest on dozens of sex charges involving children, in Saint John last winter.

He’s to be sentenced on those charges next week.

Tuesday he was in court in Corner Brook, Newfoundland on similar charges.

Snook’s appearance this morning was relatively brief.

The former councillor and youth worker in Saint John did not have a lawyer representing him in Newfoundland court, so the case was postponed.

He is accused of molesting a boy who was under the age of 14.

The assaults allegedly occurred when Snook was a Salvation Army minister, working in Mount Moriah,

Snook has not entered a plea on the charges.

He told the court that he is still awaiting full disclosure from the Crown.

The case in Newfoundland has been set-over until October 29.

Donnie Snook has a court date next week in Saint John.
