‘Bare bullying’ in jail

Article by GREEN BANANAS MEDIA

THREE TEENAGERS who bullied another before robbing him, found themselves facing “bigger bullies” during their six-night stay at Her Majesty’s Prisons Dodds.

Sixteen-year-old Lamar Ricardo Johnson, of Medford’s Land, Dayrells Road, Christ Church; Ahmal Gregory Elias, 17, of Ventnor Land, Rockley, Christ Church; and Justin Tremaine Bourne, 16, of Cummins Road, Brittons Hill, St Michael, were back before Magistrate Douglas Frederick in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court last Friday to find out exactly what their fate would be.

He asked each teen how their stay at the St Philip jail was and the replies were “nuff bullying”, “bullying” and “bullying”, with Bourne saying: “I had to give away my bread.” During their first appearance in the same court on Saturday, August 29, they pleaded guilty to robbing Orlando Farnum of a $900 cellphone and a pair of $400 slippers on Saturday, August 22.

They were remanded on that occasion. (GBM)
