A 29-year-old woman was remanded to prison yesterday after denying allegations she stole thousands of dollars from several people in furtherance of a car scam.
Felicia Wilmott, pictured, was charged before Senior Magistrate Derence Rolle-Davis over claims she scammed four people out of more than $20,000.
It is alleged that between July 1, 2019 and February 3 of this year, she stole $12,500 from Deandra Johnson and Johnson Alvin Farisen by reason of service. It is further alleged that between September 16 of last year and January 13 of this year, Wilmott defrauded Savannah Laroda of $5,500 cash.
It is also alleged that between September 21 and December 8, 2019, she stole $8,000 from Vonette Saunders by reason of service.
The Elizabeth Estates resident is further charged with stealing $3,494 from Mark Farrington by reason of service. Given her not guilty pleas, Magistrate Rolle-Davis adjourned the matter to April 20 for trial. Bail was denied and she was remanded to the Bahamas Department of Corrections in the interim. She has a right to apply to the Supreme Court for bail.
