Gregory Holis Bennett, a laborer of Price Street, was charged with failing to report to police, and he was arraigned before Magistrate Hettie Mae Stuart today.

According to police, Bennett was arrested by American authorities, and he was charged with possession of a controlled substance.

On May 5, 2010, he was deported to Belize, and he was served with a letter of compliance, which stated that he needed to report to the Queen Street Police Station every Friday.

He did so from May 2010 until January 7, 2011, but police say that he stopped showing up after that. Well, they found out why: he had gone back to the states and Bennett was again deported to Belize from the US yesterday.

And so when they picked him up, they charged him with failing to report to police for 67 consecutive weeks.

In court today, Bennett pleaded guilty to the charge saying that he went back to try to help provide for his children who live in the states.
