A Saint John man will be sentenced next month on three charges including attempted murder.
55-year old Adrienne Lepage had already pleaded guilty to charges of robbery and abduction.
The attempted murder charge was handed down this afternoon by Judge Henrick Tonning.
The charges stem from when the Barnwood Pub in Quispamsis was robbed in November of last year.
Sargeant Craig McDougall is head of major crime with Rothesay Regional Police and says this is one of the most serious crimes he has seen.
Judge Tonning called Lepage's actions cold and calculated.
He duct taped 22-year old Jessica Michaels hands and legs, threw her in the back of a van, drove her to a gravel pit in Lepreau, duct taped a bag over her head and left her.
Sentencing will take place in Hampton on May.27th.
