When Anthony Randolph Thorpe, of Derricks, St James appeared before Magistrate Kristie Cuffy-Sargeant late last month he was sentenced to time served on a theft charge.

He returned before the same magistrate today however charged with stealing a bottle of whiskey worth $147.85 on May 10 and two bottles of Baileys worth $167.80 on May 14 property of R.L. Seale Limited trading as People’s Market.
