Nineteen-year-old Jobe Caesar, who is no stranger to the court, was on Friday given a six-month prison sentence by Senior Magistrate Dylon Bess on a wounding charge committed on a police officer in 2018.
The teen was charged for wounding Kerry Joseph on September 3, 2018, at East Ruimveldt, Georgetown.
Magistrate Bess, during his ruling on Friday, informed the court that evidence obtained during the Preliminary Inquiry is sufficient to convict Caesar of the charge. Thus, the footballer of Albouystown, Georgetown, will spend the next six months behind bars.
Caesar is also before the court on charges committed earlier this year, which includes robbing and damaging his ex-girlfriend’s motorcar after their alleged abusive relationship ended.
According to facts previously presented, Kerry Joseph also shared a relationship with Caesar’s ex-girlfriend and on the day in question, Joseph visited the home of the said woman where she was attacked by the suspect.
A report was subsequently made and Caesar was arrested for the offence.
