Gold chain thieves jailed for two years each

SHERWIN Chichester, 22, of Lot 4 ‘B’ Shell Road, Kitty, Georgetown, was yesterday sentenced to two years imprisonment for larceny.
Acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson imposed the custodial penalty on him for stealing a $100,000 gold chain from Nabellah Yusuf on July 9.
Police Inspector Stephen Telford, prosecuting, said the thief committed the offence while on $60,000 bail, pending trial on a similar charge.

Another gold chain thief, Orin Miggins, 21, of Ocean Garden, Met-en-Meerzorg, West Coast Demerara, suffered the same fate on conviction for robbery, also by  Magistrate Robertson.
The prisoner also took two cell phones, in booty valued a total of $48,000, from Ryan Ragoo, on July 10.
The Prosecutor said the virtual complaint was at the Plaisance Bus Park in the city, when the convict approached him and asked to make a telephone call before robbing him.
Miggins was apprehended by two off duty soldiers who went to the rescue of the victim.
Woman with domestic problems bonded after abusing neighbours.
Kathy Henry, 28, of Lot 18 John Street, Campbellville, Georgetown, was yesterday placed on a bond, by Acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson, to keep the peace  for two years.
She pleaded guilty to three charges, which said, on July 9, she used abusive and obscene language and threatened Nicola Harris and Earle Arthur, causing a breach of peace and maliciously damaged property belonging to them.
The probationer told the Court she was experiencing a lot of problems with her husband and is willing to pay for the damage to her neighbours’ property.
Harris and Earle said they lived at the same address for over eight years and never had any previous difficulty with Henry.
But, on the day complained about, the defendant had a problem with a clothes line that was tied to her fence before she bought the house and she cut it, the complainants said.
They said she verbally abused her husband and lamented that she needed a counsellor to help resolve her domestic situation.
