TWO TEENAGERS HAVE been remanded to prison in connection with the deaths of two men earlier this month.

Kelly Javanni Prentice, 17, of Ellis Village, Halls Road St Michael, appeared in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court today and was not required to plead to the capital offence of murdering Brinsley Warde.

Nickolai Matthew Thompson and Nishawn D’Andre Prescod, both 18 years old, previously appeared in court charged with causing Warde serious bodily harm with intent to maim, disfigure or disable him.

They were both remanded to HMP Dodds.

Meanwhile, 19-year-old Johann Layne of Tudor New Road, Grazettes, St Michael became the eighth person to be charged with the offence of murder in relation to the October 2 shooting death of Jamal Worrell.

Layne, who also faces additional charges of endangering life and use of a firearm, appeared in the Oistins Magistrates Court and was remanded until November 9. (GBM/PR/NB)
