The sentencing of Guyanese Gavin Waaldijk, who has pleaded guilty to attempting to import a large quantity of cocaine into the US, was rescheduled from May 7 to the week of May 26 as his lawyers attempt to secure a lighter sentence upon a claim of duress.
According to documents seen by this newspaper a meeting was to be held between the man’s lawyer and the prosecution to discuss a sentencing recommendation to the judge.
