Jan 15, 2013 News

 

Patrick Smith, 18, will spend the next year in jail after he admitted to robbing Constance Wiggins of two gold chains valued at $220,000.
Smith is also accused of stealing a gold chain valued at $80,000 from Michelle Henry in December but pleaded not guilty to that charge.
The presiding magistrate was Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry at the Georgetown Magistrates’ court.
Police Prosecutor Kerry Bostwick said that the defendant and the complainants reside in the same neighbourhood. On the day when he robbed Wiggins, the plaintiff said that she saw the accused on the street corner.
When she walked past he mounted his motorcycle, snatched the woman’s chain and made good his escape. A report was made and following the investigation the defendant was arrested for the crime.
Smith was ordered to return to court on January 31 for the hearing of the charge to which he entered a not guilty plea.
