SOURCE STATE MEDIA: One man has been sentenced to 4 years and 5 months at His Majesty’s Prison, while another will serve 2 years and 3 months for illegal possession of firearm and ammunition.
The men had pleaded guilty in separate cases in the District B Magistrate’s Court.
Neil Guye has been sentenced to 4 years and 5 months in prison for illegal possession of a firearm and 95 rounds of ammunition.
Guye’s attorney has indicated he will appeal the sentence, insisting the court erred in its sentencing.
In a separate case, Ridge Turner has been sentenced to 2 years and 3 months for illegal possession of firearm and 3 months for possession of two rounds of ammunition.
Those sentences are to run concurrently.
Turner will serve an additional three months for failing to pay a fine for a breach of the mandatory curfew during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
He will therefore spend the next 2 years and 6 months in prison.
The sentences were handed down by Senior Magistrate Ngaio Emanuel on Wednesday.

Stupid set of idiots, that’s the kind of punishment that is necessary, an amnesty is in effect yet you people just won’t be sensible
Impartial judicial justice judgment: don’t drop the soap and spoil the custodian pension interest while on the job
Fine and confine per penance gratitude to society lessened anxiety with sure protection from within the gates of 1735. God the creator is the only silent assassin; The silencer to ninety five live rounds with misstory of proficiency intent bid it’s call, and death to fall, without penance of penitentiary: I think not as so to desires a of Civil penalty; in remorse of. Custodial penance. Mark time off fo
good behavior and time outta the hole–with constant parole anticipation. And forget about lifting off from the rock 🪨 of ANU. It’s Mandatory Law & Order in 🇦🇬 per se. Peace ✌️ to the peas (🫛) from the pod.
Handit2me, what are you saying?
Guys mr Pompey Aka mr bias … only represents his neighbors.. or maybe he’s busy with the spani 🙄..
Took the words from my mouth so fast. But remember you can’t please Antiguans

Very good sentencing. I read of intention to appeal Guye case. Are we serious about guns on the street in Antigua ? Appeal my foot. Let him remain in prison. What is he doing with 95 bullets ? Is he selling bullets ? Give me a break
Son of a you know what, deserve every day he got behind bars
@Joan
His utterances are nothing more than mystic gibberish designed to scare, mystify and unnecessarily panic the general public.. Leave Mr Pompey alone! He too is a product of the environment in which he was raised 1980’s and beyond, when the police force were the most hated, wicked, corrupt , yet tolerated nstrument utilized by the then government.
