Michael Kendall, the police officer who was charged with the rape of a child, was yesterday committed to stand trial for the offence before a judge and jury.
Kendall was committed via paper committal proceedings by Principal Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
The police officer and another, Eion Franklin, were first arraigned before Isaacs-Marcus who granted them bail after they denied the crime.
It is alleged that on December 3, 2020, they engaged in sexual activities with the child.
The $300,000 bail which Kendall was placed on was transferred for the High Court proceedings and as a result he is still out on bail.
