He went into the People’s Market to buy a beer but instead walked out with a block of cheese, which was not paid for, in his pocket.

Now, 67-year-old Tyrone Althebert Graham, of Fairfield, Tudor Bridge, St Michael must be on his best behaviour for the next 12 months if he wants to avoid having to spend three months in prison.

Magistrate Kim Butcher imposed the bond to keep the peace and be of good behaviour on Graham on Tuesday, after he pleaded guilty to stealing the piece of cheese worth $8.78 on March 12.

Constable Ralph Rollock told the District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court that the supervisor of the establishment was monitoring the floor on the day when Graham was observed entering and taking up cheese from the freezer. He later walked out of the supermarket without paying. When he was stopped, the item was found in his pants pocket.

Explaining his actions to the Magistrate, Graham said: “I know that I did wrong. I will pay a fine and get over it but it’s up to you. I just asking, I would love a fine.”

When asked by the judicial officer why he had taken up the item without paying, Graham responded: “I went to buy Deputy [beer], they didn’t have no Deputy. It was an accident.”
