Gion Bernard Charged Again
posted (May 23, 2012)
Exactly 5 weeks ago, 7News told you about 27 year-old Gion Bernard who was charged with attempted murder for the April 24 shooting of Jermaine "Horse" Garnett. Well, now, he's been charged in connection with another shooting incident.

Codrington Bodden, who was shot in the face just up the street from where Garnett was attacked, only one day earlier. Bodden finally made his report on last week Friday.

As a result, they charged Bernard with attempted murder, wounding, and use of deadly means of harm.

According to the reports to our newsroom, Bodden was shot due a personality in the area who was involved in an illicit transaction.

You may recall that Bodden was the man who was shot at ten on the morning of April 23rd - just as the Minister of National security was starting a press conference on anti-crime measures.
