Last week we told you about San Pedro residents Jimell Paul Jex and Tracy Betancourt who were arrested and charged for possession of ammunition without a firearm license. Police searched their apartment and found 8 live 9mm rounds of ammunition. Jex was the only one present in the apartment when the search was conducted, and was arrested immediately. Police found and arrested Betancourt earlier this week.
Today Betancourt, who is pregnant, was released on $7500 bail. Crown Counsel, Jackie Willoughby, did not object to bail. She was released under the condition that she appears in the San Pedro Magistrate's Court on June 14. She must also report to the San Pedro Police Station every Friday until the matter is disposed of, and is not to interfere with any witnesses.
