Mother & Daughter Claim Coercion in Creation of Complaint
Wed, May 2, 2018
Denfield Davis spent three days in jail in early 2016, and his picture was all over the evening news, when he was accused of having unlawful sex with a 15 year old. He faced four counts of unlawful sexual intercourse and one count of grievous harm.

But today, more than two years later, the 39 year old mechanic was freed of the charge in the Supreme Court. Senior Crown Counsel Sheneiza Smith was forced to enter a "nolle pros" motion when the alleged victim gave a statement denying that she had sex with Davis and revealing that the statement and its contents that she gave to the police were untrue. She said she was forced to give the statement to the police because the police and a social worker told her that if she did not give the statement, they will send her mother to jail and they will send her to the Girl's Home. Her 40 year old mother said much the same. .

Davis was represented by attorney Bryan Neal before Justice Colin Williams.
