A MAN on bail for murder was sentenced to four months in prison yesterday after he admitted to failing to charge his ankle monitor.
He was further accused of threatening two people with a gun in Nassau Village last week.
Magistrate Raquel Whyms charged D’Quille Edgecombe, 28, with two counts of possession of a firearm with intent to put another in fear and three counts of violation of bail conditions.
Edgecombe was on release for a pending murder charge before the Supreme Court over the fatal shooting of Ricky Charlton, Jr, in Nassau Village on November 7, 2015.
Edgecombe failed to charge his court ordered monitoring device on three occasions between March 1 and July 21.
Edgecombe was previously fined $2,500 and placed on 18 months probation for a similar bail violation in February.
The accused was further charged with threatening Linda Campbell and Leonardo Williams with a handgun on Bishop Street in Nassau Village on August 25.
While Edgecombe pleaded guilty to the bail offences, he pleaded not guilty to the gun threats.
The accused was sentenced to four months in prison for the bail breach and informed that his trial for the gun charges will start on September 29.
