Nineteen year old student Brandon Smith who pleaded guilty to keeping a prohibited firearm and ammunition without a gun license two weeks ago spent 15 days in jail. But he got lucky at his sentencing today when Chief Magistrate, Anne Marie Smith gave him a suspended sentence of 6 months for both offences. She decided on the sentence after she heard a plea for mitigation from attorney Ellis Arnold and Diane Finnegan that she will enrol him in an apprenticeship program. Police arrested and charged Smith after they searched him and found him with a home made firearm with one bullet.
