A 19-year-old boy was fined $1,000 after admitting to breaching his curfew while on release on a murder charge.
Magistrate Algernon Allen, Jr, charged the teenage defendant, whose name is being withheld because he was a minor at the time of the initial offence, with violation of bail conditions.
While on release, the defendant breached his nightly residential curfew on January 1.
After pleading guilty to the charge and apologising for his actions, the defendant was fined $1,000 or risk a six-month prison term.
The accused must pay half his fine before his release, with the balance to be paid off on February 12.
