JAMALL PRINCE REMANDED TO PRISON ON FIREARM-RELATED CHARGES
St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda — Monday, 23 June 2025
Jamall Prince of Seatons has been remanded to His Majesty’s Prison after appearing before the court on Monday, 23 June, to answer charges of unlawful possession of a firearm and possession of ammunition.
The accused pleaded guilty to both charges, and the matter was adjourned to Wednesday, 26 June, when he is expected to reappear in court.
The charges stem from an operation conducted by police on Tuesday, 17 June, in the community of Seatons. During the operation, Prince reportedly fled from a property upon the arrival of police officers. He was pursued, apprehended, and an illegal firearm was subsequently recovered.
He was arrested, taken into custody, and later formally charged in connection with the offences.

Mr Pompey what would you recommend?
Our magistrates are not deserving of their calling.
Well, is it a calling or are they just holding on to a job?
A man comes to court.
He pleads guilty to tge charge read to him.
Can someone tell.me why the magistrate reminds him to prison rather than sentencing him..
This is not an offence for which the magistrate has discretionary powers.
The sentence is mandatory jail time.
Why then remand him to prison and give the police and prison officers more work than they deserve?
Just sentence the fool one time and done with the matter.
Aryu know who fa picture fa POST
With every conviction there is a community background check and other that is done before sentencing
We have to keep speaking: no weapon, no threats, no fear on our streets.
Judge remanding him show this kind of offence get treated serious.
These kinds of headlines offer reassurance that crime is being actively confronted.
Fifteen bullets? That’s not for self-defence—this was armed and ready.
Maybe a gun amnesty drive would help—less is more, Guy.
the GUN AMNESTY concluded in April! Way u min day?
