James Hatton, a 40-year-old resident of 235 Grove Housing Scheme, was sentenced to ten months’ imprisonment by Magistrate Sueanna Lovell yesterday at the Georgetown Magistrates’ court.
According to police reports, the defendant was at Camp Street prison for armed robbery but was taken by a law enforcement officer to the Georgetown Public Hospital to receive treatment.
The incident occurred on August 28, 2012. Hatton, who pleaded guilty at his initial appearance, explained to the court that “I told the officer that I needed to go home for some personal articles. I gave him $5000 and he gave me permission to go and return within a certain time.”
At yesterday’s hearing, the defendant was found guilty by the court for the crime and received his sentence.
Meanwhile, the armed robbery matter is still engaging the attention of the court.
