A MAN was ordered to pay a fine after admitting to failing to charge his monitoring device while awaiting trial for another offence.
Senior Magistrate Shaka Serville arraigned Mateo Fowler yesterday for violating his bail conditions. The defendant is currently awaiting trial on theft charges.
While on release, Fowler reportedly failed to charge his monitoring device on multiple occasions in December and January.
He pleaded guilty to the bail breach offences and expressed remorse for his actions.
Fowler was ordered to pay a fine of $3,100 or face a six-month prison term. He was also warned not to allow his monitoring device to run out of charge again in the future.
Inspector Cordero Farrington served as the prosecutor.
