Three women charged

The 65-year-old relative of a 12-year-old girl who was seen in a video bound with rope and being dragged up stairs, has pleaded guilty to assaulting the minor and exposing her in a manner likely to cause injury to her health.

Magdalene Anetha Agard of Jemmotts, Durham, St Lucy, admitted to the offences when she appeared in court before Magistrate Kristie Cuffy-Sargeant today, while two Christ Church women pleaded not guilty to one of the charges. They were each released on $3,000 bail.

Kim Bridgette Christabel Thompson, 60, of Maxwell Coast Road and 77-year-old Anne Rose of Roumaika House, Dayrells Road are jointly charged with Agard with unlawfully assaulting the girl on March 10, 2019.

Thompson and Rose were given a September 4, 2019 date to return to the District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court. They were also warned to stay away from the child.

A pre-sentencing report was ordered into Agard’s life in preparation for sentencing, after the facts were detailed and her attorney mitigated on her behalf.

  • @ OSSIE MOORE, sorry but i write while doing work, and i might be typing and switch and come here, my work do entails using caps, so i must apologize, so if i do type in cap, now you know why,

  • Tell me how a white 77 year old woman is going to have any idea of how a black 12 year old girl's mind works. She said she was counselling her for a year prior to the exorcism, she probably messed the child up.

    Can we stop white people counselling our children as they dont allow blacks to counsel theirs....I should ask why?
