A MAN was sentenced to six months in prison after admitting to breaching curfew conditions related to a pending drug and firearm trial, following the discovery of 100 rounds of ammunition at his home last year.

Senior Magistrate Raquel Whyms arraigned Rolie Henfield, 44, on the violation of bail conditions.

Henfield and his accomplices had been granted bail on charges including possession of a prohibited weapon, an unlicenced firearm, ammunition with intent to supply, dangerous drugs with intent to supply, and ammunition.

Henfield was arrested after police allegedly discovered a banned black and brown Draco rifle in an orange cloth bag at his residence on Windsor Lane on September 5, 2024. Police also seized 16lb of marijuana in a blue and white cooler. The drugs recovered in this case have an estimated street value of $16,000. Additionally, Henfield was reportedly found in possession of a black Taurus 9mm pistol, 139 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition, and four rounds of 9mm ammunition.

While on release for these charges, the defendant allegedly breached his court-ordered residential curfew on March 1.

Henfield pleaded guilty to the charge and accepted the facts of the case.

He was sentenced to six months at the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services.

Before being taken into remand, the defendant was informed of his right to appeal the sentencing.

 Levan Johnson represented the accused.

 Assistant Superintendent of Police Boulds served as the prosecutor.
