A Giraudel man begged a magistrate for jail time on Monday on the premise that he would be killed if he was not sent to the slammer.
“I have beef with people out there … it’s better if you send me to jail for 3 to 4 years. Some people will kill me if you let me go,” Charles Francois told the court.
Francois is facing some serious charges including the burglary of the homes of attorney Wayne Norde and Peter Lavinier. He is also accused of vagrancy and giving false name and address to the police.
Court documents indicate that he stole items worth $49,000 from the home of Norde and $6,000 from the home of Lavinier.
Francois was found by police on the steps of Issa Trading early one morning recently and when asked for his name and address said his name was “Charles Benjamin of Paix Bouche.”
He told police that he had not been able to get a bus home but on investigations, the police were able to discover his proper name and address.
When he appeared in court on Monday Francois said, “I am sorry for giving you false name.”
He also begged for 3 to 4 years in jail.
Francois got part of his wish when he was sentenced to six months in jail after he pleaded guilty to vagrancy and giving false name and address to the police.
On the burglary charge, Magistrate Evalina Baptiste said a Prelimenary Inquiry (PI) must be conducted into the matter and she cannot do otherwise. “That is another X against PI … a man wants to plead guilty and because of the laws regarding PI we can’t do otherwise,” she said.
She expressed disgust and frustration at the process and said she hopes it is remedied very soon.
She also told Francois that “according to the statues he is branded rouge and a vagabond” and also set December 10, 2012 as “reporting day” to revisit the matter.
The PI in the matter is set for June 24, 2013.
All I know is that he is Dominican, are u?
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
Thia article missed the main point! I am a Police Officer sitting in the Court. I was in the Court when Attorney Behanzin rose to his feet to assist the Court when Chief Magistrate said that the matter had to go to a full Priliminary Inquiry. Behanzin said that there was a speedied process in Sec 12 of the Criminal Reform that allowed an accused to allow a speedy process, if the Magistrate reads to the Acciused a specific wording that speaks to the accused stating to the Court that they do not wish to have the complainant and/ or witnesses to appear and give evidence against them, this intern, Behanzin explained amounts to a guilty pleas because the Accused cannot then change his mind. Behanzin also talked about the difficulties that the Prosecution will have giving that there is no proof of the real value of the gold and jewellery that was stolen, and if any theft of that magnitude actually took place. The Prosecution will have to determine whether the theft was actually a theft and whether it can be sustained within the appropriate charge. If the Accused is indicating that he may plead guilty, then the suggestion was that the Prosecution should consider changing their strategy and perhaps select a portion of the stolen goods that amounts to less than 10,000, the threshold for the Magistrates’ Court, and present a Summary matter. The Offence of theft at Summary carries a 7 years sentence, so Behanzin explained that there was certainly scope for the Prosecution. I see him rise to his feet and corrects the Court all the time, including all of the Magistrates, each time the sitting Magistrate checks the law books, Behanzin is right down to the side of the page where the citation is found and the correct interpretation. We all learn when he is on his feet!!, this man should have been left on the side of the Court, he exposes everything!!!!!
i still find he look like caressa so maybe he from marigot.(just for fun,dont kill me )lolllllll.but somebody or somewhere need to claim him.
LMAO !!!You kill me with that comment .Awa we Caressa is a much better looking man ..His family in Giraudel can claim him . DNO is so good for the soul always something to make me laugh .
de man from giraudel I grew up there and I know him too good,tell norde why he pay nonon and tiger to kidnap de man and beat him all dat is crime
The question is what he did with the $49,000???
the items were worth 49,000…. doesnt mean he had 49,000. u know paro already is anything.. an item worth thousands can go for ten dollars..
This man is a big-time thief. He says he has a beef with people. I would think it is the other way around, ‘they have a beef with him.’
These days Dominican thieves do not go for small bucks and items but for big and expensive ones.
What exactly did he steal? Money? $49,000 could be items as a computer, T.V. stereo, blackberry, IPad, microwave, etc.
If he stole that amount of items from both homes he would need a vehicle to transport them. If he stole money, only a knapsack or bag would be required. Which is it? I thought that they were items but money also falls under the category of items.
This is the era we reside in. It is a technological age and what with all sorts of them which is why those criminals have become big-time thieves. They are greedy, wanting what they do not work for and refusing to work for.
Man, do something beneficial with your life and time. Why do you not look for a legal-paying job, whatever you are qualified to do? You will be happier and peaceful for it. While you are at it and searching for a job, look to Our Lord Jesus Christ, who could heal you of your thievery tendencies.
So he wants jailtime? I would give him no less than 10 years for the cost of the items that he stole and especially if this is not his first infraction.
@ Not Nice
Stealing is a grievous sin/crime. He is not even apologizing for taking the people’s property. He does not appear to be sincerely remorseful. He is beyond rehabilitation.
Hew should be given a Bible to study and make him write a few hundred times, The Seventh Commandment of God, “Thou Shalt Not Steal” and,
The Tenth Commandment, “Thou shalt Not Covert Thy Neighbor’s Goods”.
Commands: Respect for the rights of others.
Forbids: The desire to take, to keep, or to damage the property of others.
This man may have gotten int the situation that he’s in due to the decisions that he made in life. There is a saying,”you can’t make wrong decisions and get good results. I also believe in the old adage, “if you don’t listen, you will feel.” However, what I don’t understand is why is part of his six month’s sentence due to vagrancy? If someone doesn’t have a place to stay what should they do? I’d like to know whether he had a choice of living in a home or the streets.
@out of south city November 27, 2012
Now that I have some information from a few people who know about Giraudel, I believe that this man is someone whom I knew from since he was a boy. It would be true that he was living in Gummier, but still for all Gummier is not Giraudel, just Egliston is not Giraudel.
The people of those three communities do interact, Giraudel being like the mother village—when I was living there. But those communities have boundaries to separate the land from each other.
Today it seem to me that many people from the areas nearby—from the south side of Newtown– may have moved to Gummier, where they build their houses—Gummier was not so developed when I was living in Dominica.
If this man is the boy I used to know, it is possible that he is a homeless man today—perhaps not by choice, but because of his state of mind; for he was already out of place, in attitude and conducts, when I knew him as a boy—we even used to view his mentality as one with a bad shape of mind. No wonder he is asking the court to incarcerate him for 3 to 4 years; he wants good food to eat and a bed to sleep in—which is much better than a cold night outside.
However I will still say that he is not from directly from Giraudel—if he is the man in my mind, his parents were neither from Giraudel nor Gummier; they moved there from Guadeloupe—whether or not they were Dominicans before that.
t of south city
Stocky have to be sweet…he begging to go up there like that. Wasting our tax money.
he heard about the Christmas menu
He made friends there and must be missing them. He can’t wait to see them again.
Who in their right mind would want to be sent to prison? He has already acknowledged his guilt. Note that criminals will say “not guilty” to try to avoid prison.
I suppose that she wanted the police to hear her.
When I was a student, I recall overhearing a woman who lived in upper King George V Street, a walkway inside where there were many small houses said in patois, “If she was in prison she would have had breakfast already.” She was near the Police Station when she said that.
She may have been in prison for petty thefts or probably for a disturbance. She had a young daughter who was always with her – the poor child – today a grown woman if she is alive. Their hair was hardly ever combed. They were unkempt. She was a real pauper. I wonder if that woman is still alive; probably not.
To a certain extent they are correct. They will receive three meals in prison and on time. Nevertheless, prison is not a place sane and law-abiding people would want to go to. Something has to be wrong with their brains that they want to be sent to prison. This man knows too well that he may be protected while in prison. He should be examined by a psychiatrist.
What was this amount of money was doing in his
house? There are banks in DA someone is doing
something illegal.
he stole items WORTH $49,000 you bloody sot!!! Everything other thing now is “something illegal” but, but… choops man wicked all u wicked eh no
She also told Francois that “according to the statutes he is branded rouge and a vagabond”
Well he being branded rouge and a vagabond, that part is true for sure, according to the news details, but the part about him being from Giraudel–that part is a bit too hard for me to swallow, you see!
That man might have set foot in Giraudel to hide from the police. We have always accepted people into our village, and to live with them, until they make our village their home. I am sure it is like that everywhere in Dominica.
I met a man in Barbados, when I was travelling to Dominica; he was travelling to Dominica as well, even headed to Giraudel on the bus that picked me up at the airport. But when I got to Giraudel, I found out that he was from Haiti. So that is how far they can come to our peaceful people and our village.
For that reason, based on this man’s reputation, it is much easier for me to accept that he is from Paix Bouche, but no matter where he come from in Dominica, or from wherever, he is not a Giraudelite at all, nah!
My people from Giraudel are too much of a God fearing people to do the things this man has been doing–stealing $49,000.00! Say what! A man from Giraudel! No way!
And who, in Giraudel, he think would stoop so low to commit murder on him? As if he has not spoiled our name enough, he is doing more than that by his hypocritucal plead to the court. Well that is all it is okay! Pure hypocrisy! For that man is no more than a lazy bumb who would like to go to prison, where he will be served on a silver platter–who is ashamed of such service.
And may I remind this François –what’s his last name—“that the wages of sin is death”, one way or the other.
Please, Please, my people of Giraudel, if you are reading this, stay on the alert–tell those kinds of people that they are not welcome in our village, if they are going to leave us with such bad reputation.
We do not need this among the glorious peace, which our God has blessed us with, because of our reverend fear towards Him. Really and truly; has the whole world gone mad?
u sound like a fool .paixbouche dont have vagabond.we have a few people that kind of missbehave under their rum but we can deal with them.if u check our history u will find out .you to damn out of place
The police should look at his birth certificate to begin with. Dominica should have a registry of every national and where they reside. Is a census not conducted? If this were so it would be simple to find out where he is from and where he resided at that time.
IF he had won the lottery Giraudel would have no problem claiming him. So many times I saw this man in Giraudel.
HE IS NOT FROM PAIX BOUCHE. ONLY ONE PERSON IN PAIX BOUCHE IS A BENJAMIN.
When we at fault we take our blows.
He is From Giraudel. Gommier to be exact. Don’t get you point Liz
If you are from Giraudel you would knw Charles for Mr Possie. Not only good came from the community, just pray for him. God bless my sweet Giraudel! God bless Dominica!
rescue 911November 27, 2012 u sound like a fool .paixbouche dont have vagabond.we have a few people that kind of missbehave under their rum but we can deal with them.if u check our history u will find out .you to damn out of place
Zor November 28, 2012 IF he had won the lottery Giraudel would have no problem claiming him. So many times I saw this man in Giraudel. HE IS NOT FROM PAIX BOUCHE. ONLY ONE PERSON IN PAIX BOUCHE IS A BENJAMIN. When we at fault we take our blows
Thank You!!November 28, 2012 He is From Giraudel. Gummier to be exact. Don’t get you point Liz
Giraudel-ian November 28, 2012 If you are from Giraudel you would know Charles for Mr Possie. Not only good came from the community, just pray for him. God bless my sweet Giraudel! God bless Dominica!
To the four of you individuals above, I have copied and paste your comments, so that you will see exactly what your wrote to me.
If you all had any reading comprehension, you would have noticed that I did not deny this man lived in Giraudel, but he is not a product of our people there–that is what I am saying.
I know many people who live in Giraudel up to today, who come from other parts of Dominica. They are even from other places–like the man whom I met in Barbados heading to Giraudel, in Dominica, but he is a man from Haiti.
What kind of person is that man? We do not know; but he could bring his wife/girlfriend, or even marry someone in Giraudel, and raise a family there; however, their attitude and conducts would not come from our true people of Giraudel.
We are a very small community, related to one another–it is very easy to identify us. We do not have Francois people who are directly from Giraudel.
My Father’s family is the only Xavier people in Giraudel, even if other Xaviers may have evolved in Giraudel I would know that they are not Giraudelites–because, between my two brothers, there is only one child–who is a girl.
According to you “Thank you” and thank you for you humble response. That man is an example of what I am saying–since you mentioned Gummier. I am sure that I know this man’s father–perhaps he is not even alive, at this time.
What I know about that man’s father–if that is him–it is that he was from Guadeloupe. Yes he and his wife raised a family in Gummier–I can even say that I have an idea who this man “Francois” is, by the name “Possie or Persey” The point is they are not of the seeds of Giraudel–I am looking at the attitude and conducts of the man.
For those you, who are so quick to evaluate my credibility in that negative sense, I would suggest that you read what I write, that you might learn something from me.
i doh think no lawyer would represent mr. na
The Tebeh say is Paix Bouche he from LOL. PaixBouche don’t have Benjamin but Francois look kixxxxx for real
That is because the idiot really is from Paix Bouche but found himself if Giraudel at some point. He better not put his theiving backside back there again.
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
the money laundering unit needs to pay Norde a visit to ask him what he doing with $49,000 cash at home.
Court documents indicate that he stole items worth $49,000
read the story again. it said $49 000 worth of items (could be jewelry, electronics, clothing etc) not cash. jeez man we dominicans are so dumb sometimes. and then blame dno and say the story not clear when it is so clearly written. smh
he stole items worth that amount of money. he did not steal cash. mama woye
Correction, They never said he had $49000 cash on hand. The guy stole items worth that amount.
Read properly it wasn’t cash,he stole items which was worth that amount of money
Budman, I don’t think your read rightly. Go read again. I will copy and paste so you have it right here:”Court documents indicate that he stole items worth $49,000 from the home of Norde and $6,000 from the home of Lavinier”. Got it?
Budman, read the post again, what was stolen from Mr. Norde were “Items worth $49K” not cash.
smh
Really > Did you really read the story ? ? ? It states clearly that the thief took stuff or items worth $49,000.00 .It never amazes me how folks can stoop low in their attempt to be nagative.
@ budman
You called me uneducated. You are the one who is uneducated. Did you read that he stole $49,000 cash? Are you asleep? The article specifies that he stole “items worth $49,000 from Norde and $6,000 from the home of Lavinier”.
Read the Article again
The information never say Mr Norde had $49,000.00 cash at his home it was said $49,000.00 worth of goods stolen, read properly
retarded read properly…”items worth $49,000″
Idiot read properly, did u see anything about $49,000.00 is cash was missing….tipical Dom in a can…Like to run their mouth….
Alas! Take it easy on budman. He has gotten enough blows already.
Peeping Tom’s comment to you made me laugh out loud: “Take it easy on budman… ”
Budman deserved it. He insulted me in another article. I viewed him as being disrespectful. I thought, “He got what he deserved.” 
What goes around comes around. He really did not read the article properly. He must have been dreaming. 
Surely a lawyer could not possibly have had that amount of money in his home unless it was in a locked safe and also he was hiding it from the government so as not to pay income tax on it and also bank interest. I do not think that he would so unwise to do something like that, hide so much money in his home.
He is a man of status who makes a good income from his profession. Obviously, he would furnish his home adequately with all what he feels necessary to make his life a comfortable one and for his enjoyment. But that amount of money? Although I do not know and cannot confirm it, I doubt he would ever consider keeping so much in his home. It was stated that they were ‘items – goods’. Therefore the majority of us assumed that they are household effects – not money, although Francois could have stolen some money but not that amount as a few assumed.
More thieves liars and criminals running amok in our country… They messing up our land. We have to keep fighting back to take our country back.
that man is a sellout he need to be touch real bad
How is he a sellout? He is BEGGING to go to jail to avoid being killed and you call him a sellout? He did not mention who was willing to kill him? SMH
To live a like that? What a way to live. He cannot be a happy man. This man needs counseling and to be rehabilitated.
anyways didnt know vagrancy was a crime so why arent all those paros charge? and clean up roseau
The you will be on DNO posting Dominica too violent. People like you are sickening…..
OK Mr. Attorney, you have just begun to feel the might of the criminals you help set free. Not that Mr. Francois or anybody else is right to buglarize anybody’e property. But the young and upstart lawyer has chosen to reprenet the hardened criminals among us and look for technicalities in the law to set them free or prevent them from facing justice at all cost. The criminals are also listening to who are the popular attorneys making the big money these days.
everyone has rights
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS Continued……
N.B My comments here have absolutely nothing to do with the above news item. Just a matter of informing the public.
Please don’t resist arrest even if you know you are within your rights. They may use force and claim that you resisted arrest and impeded them from doing their job. If you can, have someone record the act. They may ask you to turn it off. Don’t!!You have every right to record.
The police does not have the right to take away your video camera/phone for recording a public servant in public. If they grab your phone just keep reminding them that you do not consent to them taking your phone. There is no law that states you cannot record a public servant in public.
Always remember that the police are trained to lie to you to get you to do or say what they want.
A police officer CANNOT FORCE YOU TO ANSWER ANY QUESTION. Don’t forget they need your permission to talk to you. Do not Consent!!!
They will use scare tactics/intimidation to get you to do things. They will sometimes even misquote the laws. Always stand your ground..Well if you choose to talk to them or go with them you are giving them consent then it’s all up to you.
When a police officer comes to search you or your home he is not looking to make friends. He is looking for something on you so that you can be arrested.
A police officer may question you with regard to your whereabouts…YOU DO NOT HAVE TO RESPOND IF YOU DONT WANT TO. Of course sometimes police officers get mad when you know your rights, they may threaten to arrest you if you don’t respond. This would be false arrest as not responding to an officers questions doesn’t constitute arrests.
If a police officer comes on your property asking you questions ask them to see a warrant if they don’t ask them to leave as they also need your permission to come on your property unless they have a warrant or probably cause. You can tell them to leave cause they are trespassing and not answer any of their questions.
The police may approach you to question you and you may be on the phone. They may tell you to turn it off you are disrespecting them. You do not have to and they are NOT withing their powers to have you turn off your phone. Just remember to tell them that you DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO TALK TO THEM OR YOU CHOOSE TO REMAIN SILENT.
@KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
Well after writing all of this, you should read the news article and to discover that the man, in question, does not need any of your information–he simply wanted to spend 4 years in prison, where he thinks he would live longer, than if he was set free.
Remain silent you say! Don’t you hear him begging the Judge to find him guilty and to send him to his home at a jailhouse? He was certainly voicing out that people would kll him if he was set free–I don’t hear anything silent in that plead to the Judge,nah. So much for all of that writing!
DNO again how can you publish an article like this that is not substatiated by any aticulable facts that damages the police image. Any uneducated person reading this will buy into this. Again like I say restriction are coming.,
Who are you? This is not the first time you have written this. Why do you not go on TV and inform them? Sensible people should know their rights. Do they need you to inform them, especially if you are not one in authority?
If they did not get themselves in trouble, thieves and murderers that they are, there would be no reason for them to worry about the police talking to them and vice versa.
Hoe stupid can you be? Your first comments made absolutely no sense at all.
The public needs to know. Are you seriously saying that only those in authority HAVE THE RIGHTS to inform someone about their rights as a citizen?
Sir I think something is definitely wrong with your cognition hence I will refrain from responding to your comments as I can tell you are not knowledgeable AL ALL.
In any case the police have more powers than the people he can arrest anybody on suspisiopn of any crime he does not need a warrant for that.
@SCIENCE
Reasonable suspicion is NOT a guy who has tinted windows,someone with a previous conviction, someone who looks like a criminal OR even if a person chooses not to respond to an officer.
Don’t forget there MUST BE REASONABLE GROUNDS FOR SUSPICION NOT JUST A HUNCH OK HONEY.
In addition you must always remember that Reasonable suspicion is a term used to describe if a person has been or will be involved in a crime based on specific facts and circumstances NOT HUNCHES
REASONABLE SUSPICION AND PROBABLE CAUSE ARE DIFFERENT.
A police officer may stop frisk n search based on REASONABLE SUSPICION.
AN OFFICER MAY NOT ARREST someone based on reasonable suspicion but based on PROBABLE CAUSE.
Know your rights honey AND PLEASE read and understand as it seems that you have very little comprehension skills.
REASONABLE GROUNDS does not PROVIDE GROUNDS FOR ARREST.
Reasonable suspicion to stop Probable Cause to ARREST. Please do some research sweety you have the terms mixed up.
To DNO
I just posted the same comments under KNOW YOUR RIGHTS PLEASE DELETE the first one as there was a typing error and I dont want the public to be misinformed. Please post this one instead of the other. thank you.

@ Anonymous
Please, please! Do not make me laugh. You did and loudly too!
They will have a better meal than those who work and pay taxpayers and even the poor people who are law-abiding. I will tell you further, no exception in Canada and of course the U.S. A sumptuous festive meal with all the trimmings, roast beef and turkey with cranberry sauce and dessert; no chicken. 
LOL….so true!
Charles know what he is talking about. Just loooking at the lawyer connections.
Cause he know whats up…he went to the wrong house to steal…..
alu making me laugh today dere we…
ADMIN where is the LIKE and DISLIKE botton..
By the way Paix Bouche Pani Benjamin, he shuda use another surname.. ou two sot
Sonday alone we that is a Benjamin and so long he not living there…..lol. This one take me we.
woye o yoye… mi zafere.
Zorrrrrrr…of all place is Paix Bouche he chose. lol Well if he knew anything about Paix Bouche he would have selected a different surname. We don’t even have 5 persons whose surnames are “Benjamin” in Paix Bouche…sorry Charles, wrong surname chosen…look kix….lol
Who cares which village he chose? It was a deliberate attempt to throw the police off. So, he used a village. Allu looking waaaaaaaaaaaay too deep with that Paix Bouche thing. Who cares? He could have used Timbuktu…it does not matter. He chose A VILLAGE TO THROW THEM OFF>!!!!!!!!!SMFH
If he knew anything about
Paix Bouche maybe he would stick with Francois?
Only six months. This man needs to be disciplined or else someone will teach him a good lesson! That he can never touch again. Serious concern for the surrounding neighbourhoods.
@MSG
Did you not read that he asked for 3 to 4 years. If this man thought that he was goind to be disciplined, the way discipline ought to be at a jail house, he would not even ask for four days, so much more for 4 years.
But not only that, he sees being in prison as a security for his life–instead of being set free. He don so much wrong to people, he claim that they will kill him.
When we have people asking for jail term in the place of freedom–we must know that this world is really a wicked and evil place to live–O dear God!
I have know this guy to be in the police hands for years and by now he should be deemed as a threat to society and should have been doing hard time. he is a career criminal.
$49,000 from the home of Wayne Norde wow. Interesting. These young lawyers doing well papa ?
and he choose the right place too.(they are the ones that defend them )
earlier on i read a comment one an article and someone said that these lawyers need to b burglarized and they will stop hiding the truth…lol u hit the nail rescue..way de thumbs up na..admin what happen some peole were complaining of getting thumbs down man,,so long allu say sorry and allu working on it..de hand still in hospital? finx de hand 4 the thmbs to work eh and stop koynaying people. stop saying is technical difficulty..is some people that somplaing of too much thumbs down so allu leave us without the thumb. smdh gimme back my thumb..i and others will go on a capaign eh.
i telling you LOL look kicks, now they seeing what the real lawyers do i would be fraid to represent him it might be my home NEXT hahahaha.
@nodding
Perhaps DNO is being more careful pertaining to the qualifications of those who would give thumbs up and thumbs down. Perhaps they are more interested in the quality of people’s comments, and would rather not allow thumbs up and down–just for the fun of it, with people like you.
Do not forget that we are to rating people’s comments through our thumbs up and downs–and anyone on the Internet can see what is here, if they care to do so.
Personally, I have a facebook friend from African who searches DNO to read my comments. It would be extremely humiliating for me, if I knew that you, and others like you, were rating my comments with a thumbs down.
Just read your writing style again, and ask yourself if you are encouraging DNO to bring back the thumbs up and down for people like you to use it for and against those who comment.
dat i find
DNO is it $49.000 and $6.000 in cash or stolen items?
@ B.E.B.
I read ‘items’ and I assumed that is exactly what they are.
I can not understand you all read properly
alyou stupid?blind?or just plain tebe’ the post clearly states “Court documents indicate that he stole items worth $49,000 from the home of Norde and $6,000 from the home of Lavinier” ITEMS WORTH!!!!!!!!! geez DNO never said it was cash.smh
@anonymous – you should study law too instead of criticizing.
I don’t need to study law. I make a very good legal salary.
Is it me alone that can read and understand here, what was stolen from Mr. Norde were items WORTH $49,000, not $49,000.
My goodness, all you need to go adult education class to learn to read and comprehend.
I know wayne norde pretty well. he knew the path that he was taking a few years ago when we spoke in my office under unfortunate circumstances. He knew if he had continued he woould have needed a defense lawyer himself. Happy you took my advice. Hope its not a cover though. The Dog is watching.
