Two men who are suspected to be homeless, were yesterday charged with stealing women’s underwear.
Collin DeSouza, 41, and Patrick Huntley, 39, on January 23, 2019, at the Stabroek Market Wharf, allegedly stole 10 panties, 30 pairs of slippers and a quantity of brassieres, all totaling $391,000 in value, and being the property of Mondale Rogers.
DeSouza and Huntley pleaded not guilty to the charge, which was read to them in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court by Magistrate Faith McGusty.
Less than a week ago, two other men were charged for the same offence. DeSouza and Huntley are suspected accomplices in the crime.
Police Prosecutor Ceon Blackman, objected to
bail because of the value of the articles and because the two defendants were
on the run. DeSouza and Huntley were remanded to jail until February 13, 2019.
