Murder Charges Dropped Against Millette and Bailey Following Appeal Court Ruling

The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions has withdrawn murder charges against Jason Millette and Shalom Bailey in connection with the 2017 killing of Xavier Thomas in Cedar Grove.

Millette and Bailey were jointly charged with Dorian Marshall, whose conviction for the same offence was quashed last week by the Court of Appeal. The court ruled that the evidence presented during Marshall’s trial was insufficient to support a guilty verdict.

As a result, the appeal judges overturned Marshall’s 40-year prison sentence and barred any future retrial. In the wake of that decision, the DPP filed a nolle prosequi in the cases against Millette and Bailey, effectively bringing the prosecution to an end.

  1. When ur lawyer a one big lodge man u bound to walk free smh dont worry Jehovah nar sleep the 3 of them will meet their karma and get their just reward JUSTICE FOR XAVIER

  2. Did we expect a different outcome? If I have to answer my own question then It will be NO. We live in a place where justice will never be served until God comes.

  3. The Ministry of Legal Affairs, office of the DPP, the prosecutors, the police in Antigua are a bunch of jokers. A bunch of educated idiots, Dunces . Their jobs are to make mistakes and set notorious criminals free .

  4. Jungle Justice for these menace to society. In time they shall be rested. Tired of these fake, weak judicial system.

  5. Just in time for carnival so they can have their last bit of fun before somebody done dem, cus they don’t know how to keep still and they will not make it back to jail this time. I don’t want them near me nor my business they make me uncomfortable so I may have to do something about it….what are they gonna do with their lives? who will they work for? who will hire them? what you really think they will do to survive? but sell drugs rob, steal and kill. Police keep watch..

  6. Don’t worrying if they done it. N think they walking free…it mean God will be their judge.No lodge man can or obeys can stop what’s coming to them……GOD WILL BE THEIR JUDGE..
