      Two men and a woman are facing several charges, including theft over $5,000 and possession of stolen property for the purpose of trafficking.
       
      Murray Peters, who is 38 and from Red Deer, 34-year-old Jesse McLeod of Halkirk and 18-year-old Jacqueline Hinse, also of Halkirk, are to appear in Stettler provincial court on Thursday.
