Cop Gets Off Gun Charge
posted (October 29, 2015)
Today, a police officer walked off a pair of gun charges. 33 year old Constable, Linsdale Blease assigned to the Domestic Violence Unit was accused of assaulting his own step-brother, Cordel Duran with a firearm and discharging the firearm in public. Well today told he had no case to answer and was set free because no evidence to prove the charges was put before the court. That's because the main witness was Blease's step-father, Gregory Duran, who has been living with his mother for more than 20 years and refused to testify in the matter. With that, the police officer who is on interdiction walked out of the Chief Magistrate's court a free man.

The misunderstanding was over PC Blease's twenty thousand dollar bus which had been set on fire. Blease told us he knows who set the bus on fire, but preferred not to call a name since no one was charged for arson.
