A MAN was placed on probation on Friday after admitting to failing to charge his monitoring device while on bail for a murder charge.
Antonio Thompson, 23, faced Magistrate Samuel McKinney on five charges of violation of bail. He was granted bail in the Supreme Court in relation to pending murder and attempted murder charges.
Thompson is accused, while being concerned with others, of the shooting death of Sean Augustin and the attempted killing of Jason Campbell on Baillou Hill Road on July 13, 2018.
It is said that between October 2–17 the accused failed to charge his monitoring device on five occasions.
In court Thompson pleaded guilty to the charges. He was fined a collective $2,500 for the offence or in default, a six-month prison sentence. He was also placed on 18 months probation.
