A High Court Judge has warned a self-confessed gunman to come prepared to pay any fine in full.

“If a fine is considered, you have to bring all of my fine. So if the fine is $20 000 you have to bring all the money,” Justice Laurie-Ann Smith-Bovell told Shaquone Omar Waterman yesterday.

Waterman, of Odessa McClean Drive, My Lord’s Hill, St Michael, had just pleaded guilty, in the No. 4 Supreme Court, to having a .380 ACP-calibre Taurus semi-automatic pistol, as well as nine rounds of ammunition, on April 6, 2024.
