VANCOUVER -- As the first people charged with participating in the Stanley Cup riot appeared in court Wednesday, one defence lawyer suggested his client wants to enter a plea next month.

“She’s very much looking to resolving this,” lawyer David Bauer told reporters outside court after appearing without his client, Sophie Laboissonniere, 20.

Months before the riot, Laboissonniere won the title of Miss Congeniality at the Miss Coastal Vancouver Pageant.

She is accused of taking part in the looting of the London Drugs store during the June 15 riot. She is facing charges of break-and-enter and participating in a riot.

Her case was adjourned to Jan. 19 at 9:30 a.m. in Vancouver Provincial Court.

The matter is scheduled for Court 102, where guilty pleas are often entered. But Baker would not reveal how his client plans to plead.

The Crown gave notice during each of the first appearances of eight accused rioters on Wednesday that the attorney-general wants the riot-related cases televised.

Crown spokesman Neil MacKenzie said outside court that he believes it is the first time the Crown has applied to broadcast court proceedings.

A prosecutor will be assigned to handle the broadcast applications, but it won't be one of the five prosecutors assigned to handle riot cases.

Premier Christy Clark said earlier that she wants to see riot-related court proceedings televised for the public.

The premier also said she wanted those who took part in the riot and looting to face jail time.

So far, the Crown has approved riot-related charges against 27 people.

The Crown is still assessing another two dozen files from Vancouver police, which recommended charges.

The riot broke out after an estimated 150,000 people gathered in downtown Vancouver to watch the Vancouver Canucks lose Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final to the Boston Bruins.

Rioters were caught on cameras torching police cars, smashing windows and looting stores, causing millions in damage.

Here is what happened in court Wednesday with the other seven accused:

Ryan Dickinson, 20, remains in custody until his next appearance at 9 a.m. Friday at Vancouver Provincial Court; Oliver Burke, 20, had his case adjourned until Jan. 4, 1:30 p.m.; Spencer Kirkwood, 25, had his case adjourned to Jan. 11 at 1:30 p.m.; Anthony Larsen, 18, had his case adjourned until Dec. 23 at 9 a.m.; Matthew Lennox, 24, had his case adjourned to Jan. 13 at 1:30 p.m.; and Jeff Post, 20, had his case adjourned to Jan. 11, 9:30 a.m., as did Robert Snelgrove, 25.
