St Philip man sentenced on possession of illegal gun
Article by April 9, 2021
A $5,000 fine has been imposed on a St Philip man for illegal possession of a “rusty and non-functional” firearm he found in a field he was cultivating and placed in a toilet cistern.
A High Court judge handed down the sentence Thursday on Shawn McNeil Evelyn from Eastbourne. He has three months to pay the fine if he wants to avoid spending six months at HMP Dodds. Evenlyn, who was on bail, had already spent nearly five months on remand.
The convicted man, who is celebrating his birthday today, had pleaded guilty to the March 26, 2015 offence last September before Justice Pamela Beckles in the No. 2 Supreme Court.
