These fine should not be … there should be a minimum of five year jail time for possession. That is why there is some much guns. These guns are used to rob and kill ppl, and yet the judicial system fine it ok to fine ppl and put them back on the street…. nonsense
Ignorance. Don’t talk wa u don’t know about
Wow wow wow unacceptable the fine for the possession of a 30/30 riffle and 5.56 rounds of ammo these men and woman should be remanded into Prison pending further inquiries ballistic check should have been carried out as quickly as possible
Yep, this is how they roll. Smdh.
The prison is over crowed with petty thieves, while the badman gunmen are set free to continue their Carnage.
This is how justice works with this failed administration. They are broke,🤑 and trying to raise money anyway they can.
Through the courts, and raising taxes on the poor. What a damn shame.. Antigua salt to rarse!!!
I guess the Alpha Nero ain’t raising capital fast enough.. 😂
Now we know why crime is out of control. The judicial system sucks. Just a matter if time before it becomes useless. History always repeats itself.
There should be no bail for gun related crimes. Do the time.
A female Jamaican escape custody and get 6 months, you’re found with illegal firearm and matching ammunition and a 5,000 fine?? +2500? Reformation is needed here.
The gun off the road now right? … she escaped custody and I’m jail now . Same money he pay the court for the gun the using to feed the woman in jail and pay the people to watch them in there smh. Just a cycle in the system. Eventually that same gun and bullets gonna be in someone else’s hands . Will they be a good guy or a bad guy? Who knows . Live and Love ya life . Deal with people right in life . Jah must bless you. And when time to move forward out of life. Just accept it and be grateful for the life you had. Make space for the baby them that born everyday man
