The four men accused of stealing 21 pigs and 12 bags of pig feed, had their matters dismissed when they appeared in the District “D” Magistrates’ Court earlier this week.
Marlon Fitzgerald Boxhill, 41, of Lodge Hill; Kemar Shamar Turton, 21, of Lewis Gap, Green Hill; and Robert DaCosta Walker, 48, of No. 36 Seclusion Gardens, Black Rock, all in St Michael, and Jamal Emmanuel Lewis, 31, of Foster Hall, St John, were all charged with the offence which occurred sometime between June 19 and 20 at Cleland, St Andrew.
Three of the men, minus Lewis, were remanded to HMP Dodds after appearing before Magistrate Laurie-Ann Smith-Bovell last Friday.
However they reappeared before Magistrate Ian Weekes in the District “D” Magistrates’ Court on October 1, where the complainant said he had no intention of pursuing the matters, and the cases were dismissed.
Lewis also had the charges against him dropped when he reappeared before Magistrate Weekes on October 3. (RA)
