Troy Clinton has been acquitted of causing the deaths of two people in a 2011 collision but convicted of the lesser offence of dangerous driving following a jury trial in the No. 5 Supreme Court.

A nine-member jury found the resident of Brereton Village No. 2, St Philip, guilty of dangerous driving after returning its verdict before Justice Pamela Beckles. Clinton had denied causing the deaths of Akalia Natasha Weir and a female minor by driving on Lower Estate Road, St Michael, on April 21, 2011, at a speed and in a manner dangerous to the public.

A pre-sentence report was ordered, and he will return to court on July 23 for sentencing. Principal State Counsel Romario Straker prosecuted the case, while Senior Counsel Andrew Pilgrim and attorney Lesley Cargill-Straker represented Clinton.
