A teenager who confessed to using marijuana and “mollies” has been remanded to the Psychiatric Hospital for evaluation.

Rashad Shaqur Davion Greaves, 16, of Turners Hall, St Andrew, pleaded guilty in the District “D” Magistrates’ Court last Thursday to burglary – entering Aamir Thomas’ home as a trespasser and stealing a Nintendo Switch valued at $500, a $400 PlayStation and three controls worth $350, sometime between 6 p.m. on November 27 and 6 a.m. the following day.

When Greaves first appeared on Tuesday, prosecutor Sergeant Ralph Rollock objected to bail on the grounds that the youngster was on probation from two other courts and was already facing
a charge for a similar offence, made by the same complainant. 

He also revealed that the accused was using illegal drugs which seemed to be affecting him psychologically and, if given bail, he might reoffend. (SD)
