AN American tourist was fined yesterday after admitting to groping an underaged girl at Baha Mar’s water park earlier this week.
Senior Magistrate Kara Turnquest Deveaux arraigned New Mexico resident Hunter Padilla, 23, on indecent assault. Padilla reportedly groped a ten-year-old girl’s buttocks at the Baha Bay water park on July 30. After pleading guilty to the charge and apologising for his actions, Padilla was fined $3,000 and could face a six-month prison term if he fails to pay.
Alphonso Lewis represented him.
