A husband and wife were remanded to Dodds Prison earlier today after being arraigned on several criminal charges.
Albert Nathaniel White, 44, and his 39-year-old spouse Sofieth White, both of 1st Avenue, Weekes Land, Goodland, St Michael, were remanded until August 9 by Magistrate Manila Renee when they appeared in the District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court this morning.
The indictable charges stem from an incident on May 11 when security personnel conducting a money drop at the Royal Bank of Canada branch near Broad Street, The City, had money and a firearm taken from them.
The Whites are jointly charged with six counts of money laundering, totalling $59 310, on May 11.
In addition, Albert is separately charged with robbing John Merrit of $98 974 belonging to Thanise Investments, endangering the life of Merrit, endangering the life of Rache Oliver, and use of a firearm, all on May 11.
He was also charged with several traffic offences and pleaded guilty to driving a motor vehicle that was not registered, the fraudulent use of number plates and driving without insurance, also on May 11.
Sofieth wasn’t required to plead to being charged with handling stolen property (the sum of $60 410) on May 11 and three counts of money laundering (totalling $1 400.39) between May 11 and May 14, 2025. (BA)
