A MOTHER expressed absolute outrage and disappointment, on September 30, with the judicial system after the man who gunned down her only child in broad daylight in East Port of Spain and was sentenced to only seven years in jail.

The two and a half years the killer spent awaiting trial were subtracted from his sentence, leaving him to serve four years, seven months and 11 days.

Newsday confirmed that the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions is considering an appeal of the leniency of the judge's sentence and has 14 days from the date of conviction, September 22, to challenge the matter in court.
