A Kingston woman was freed of robbery and gun charges in the Supreme Court today after the Crown conceded that it could not mount a viable prosecution in the matter.

The accused, 23-year-old Shanice Lynch, was charged with possession of a prohibited weapon, using a weapon to commit a felony, and robbery with aggravation.

When the matter came up today, attorney-at-law Rodain Richardson successfully submitted to the court that it could not be ascertained that Lynch was involved and that the benefit of the doubt should be given to her.
