Just right.

That was the decision of the Court of Appeal which held that the sentences imposed on killer brothers Scott Colby Richardson Harewood and Stuart Kenny McMillian Harewood were neither unduly lenient, nor unduly harsh.

Scott “Ratty” Harewood, 35, and Stuart “Cujoe” Harewood, 37, both of Seaview, St Philip, had pleaded guilty to the non-capital murder of Derek “Bhingy” Hunte on June 3, 2014.

Hunte was shot six times in the back as he ran for his life.

Justice Pamela Beckles had sentenced Scott Harewood to 38 years in jail, while Stuart Harewood got 35. (HLE)
