A robbery charge against a 25-year-old mason was yesterday dismissed after he begged his victim to drop the charge and accept compensation for the articles he stole.
Initially Osafa Johnson was granted bail in the sum of $150,000 by Magistrate Dylon Bess in the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court Six for a robbery offence.
The charge alleged that on August 27th, 2019 at Jackson Street, North Ruimveldt, while in the company of others, Johnson, robbed Howard McPherson of a phone valued $40,000 and $20,000 cash.
