A police recruit was yesterday given a second chance after he admitted to moving a fellow trainee’s phone without permission.
Gladwin De Viera, a Linden resident, pleaded guilty to a charge that stated that on August 21, at the Felix Austin Police College, he stole a Samsung Galaxy S5, valued at $75,000, from Sherman Paul.
Police Prosecutor Arvin Moore told the court of Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan that on the day in question, police constable 24302 Paul, who was also a trainee at the college, left his phone charging in the bathroom of the dorm and went on the parade line.
