More than three years after Ranaldo Narico Roberts left school without any certificates, he found himself getting a homework assignment from the No. 2 Supreme Court.

The 19-year-old has been tasked by Justice Randall Worrell, to write an essay detailing the plans for the rest of his life and saying why he should be released from Dodds Prison. He has a week.
