TWO MARTINDALES ROAD, St Michael men yesterday expressed remorse for their string of recent crimes which had the country on edge.

Richardo Winfield Mayers, 30, (at left) of Bannister Land, and Pearson Omar Jordan, 32, of Taylor’s Gap, and pleaded guilty in the District “D” Magistrate’s Court.

After agreeing with the facts as outlined by prosecutor Sergeant Derwin Thompson, both men expressed remorse.

“I cannot justify my ignorance, sir. I am sorry,” Mayers told the court.

“I went the wrong way, and the end doesn’t justify the means,” stated Jordan.

The words of regret came after Magistrate Ian Weekes had sentenced them to the nine-month prison term.

They are to return to other courts  to face a number of other charges. (ES)
