Telford George of Newtown, one of the three men charged for the McMillan Gas Station robbery late last month, has been granted bail.
The Dominica State College (DSC) student appeared before a Roseau magistrate’s court on Monday where his was released on a $30,000 bail bond.
As conditions of his bail, George is to surrender his travel documents, and report on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at the Roseau Police Station. He was put on an 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily curfew and told not to interfere with any of the witnesses in the matter.
It is alleged that George, along with Elio Edwards and Leon Toussaint had robbed the gas station at gun point on October 20,2011. The men allegedly stole $3,325.06.
According to the charge, the defendants allegedly used force on Wendy Baron, a McMillan Gas Station employee, during the robbery.
Disclosure is set for December 31, 2011 and the preliminary inquiry for February 6, 2012.

DON’T WORRY HE HAS ENOUGH BUBBLE HEAD WOMAN TO GO THROUGH IN NEWTOWN.
Mr. George is not form Newtown. He happens to be living in Newtown through circumstance. Some time in 2011 when he fell in trouble with the law, his grandfather bailed him (remember some time in early 2010, DNO carried a story about a Newtown Fisherman crying outside the court) as there was some stress between George and his biological Father. George’s Grandfather who bailed him has since goen to the great beyond and so George continue to live in Newtown – really terrorizing everybody. Yes! he has girls galore. In fact after he was released on bail he showed up at the college with a smart swagger, totally unashamed to drop of his girlfriend who missed classes just to be with him in court. Wow I want a girl to stand by me even just like her
every one talking oh he is a colege guy he should no better, just the name going to colege , dat not learning nothing, so long i no mr going colege, poor boy. search ur mind my brother make a right turn
These articles are misinforming, Telford is FROM StockFarm NOT Newtown, he’s only been living there, one or two years
That Alio again. Anyways, what we do in life, that what we see.
de man doh even finish state college yet he already get promoted to state prison he will get his phd up there because fellas up there well swef when he come out up there not even walk he will be able to walk
lol
he maybe like that so he wanted to go there and meet more man.
THEY WANT TO PLAY MAN WITH NOTHING, BUT
STEALING IS NOT THE ANSWER. HE COULD HAVE
GOTTEN A LITTLE JOB FOR POCKET CHANGE. FOLLOW
ING OTHERS BY ROBBING PEOPLE IS BAD NEWS. HE
SHOULD BE PUNISH WITH HARD COMMUNITY SERVICE
SO HE COULD GET A CHANCE TO FINISH HIS STUDIES.
i think beting he going to rob DSC
does people have alot of money
Some people could jeopardize their entire life and career and their good name when they get into trouble with the Law. Do they not care for themselves, for others and ever consider the result of their actions when they are caught? What a waste of God-given allotted precious life and time. Will he ever be rehabilitated?
ellio its time u ask urself a question i hope u fine time to do that.now that u are locked up
u all crack me up lol
It is clear that this one is a repeat offender. It is also clear he has no intentions of changing. That is one of the best reasons for Government to invest in a juvenile facility. No one is going to enforce that curfew and nothing is going to prevent him from doing it again while he is on bail.
TELFORD SACK-WAY JAH JAH U NOT FINISHING COLLEGE WE START TOGETHER WI BOSS….AND I LEAVE U THERE….GARCON U GOING ON UR 5TH YR OF COLLEGE WI!!!!!! LMAOOOOOOOO
lol damn … grandfada man?? haha
HE IS PROBABLY GOING TO BE A DOCTOR OR A LAWYER, THAT IS WHY
THEY SHOULD LEAVE HIS @$$ IN JAIL CAUSE HE ALREADY HAVE A DIRTY POLICE RECORD WHATS THE USE OF THE COLLEGE EDUCATION MISTER SPOIL HIS REPUTATION ALREADY BOYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!HE CANT WORK IN A BANK FOR SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE TOO VOLEHHHHHHHH
They need to bring down the prices on the world creole music festival tickets.. Its around that time the youth with no jobs try to find money to go..give students a special price and that might solve some of the robbery leading up to that date… if we notice that is worst than ever…
@ pissed
Thou shalt not steal. If they cannot go due to their finances, then they should not go. If they could have afforded it would this have prevented them from robbing the gasoline station? He committed a serious offence by stealing and using force on the female employee during the theft.
I do agree that the price should be reduced for students. The same should apply for seniors who would love to attend but who cannot afford the price. Probably in future this could be considered.
So because the price of the WCMF is high, that gives him the right to STEAL!!!!! BS
Bull crap
a soft little sponge that there we….we used to search that like the police when we meet him and all the little ice cream could do was grin his teeth and say i doe have nothing my broder…LMAO all little boys want to be bad man nowadays, we still going to hold him up and search him when we see him outside on bail…..hahahahahahahahah
All that nonsense that spoil de chile.
all you will kill me i dieing der, but is true you wud swear he gangster and rich i think he was worth more than that. Search him again self take all d gold he voleh there hahahahahaaha
alas….. good boy gone bad…. what a disappointment!!!
they shouldn’t have bailed him!! son of a gun!! he too bad… let justice prevail…. no mercy for the wicked!!!
getting into college right now is not so hard.. like in the days of clifton dupigny college… so saying ‘u is a college student and should know better’ is kinda ‘wrong’… any jack spratt getting into college… not that i don’t want them to… i’m just saying there should be a level of academics to enter… just like all vieux manier children entering d/ca grammar school… it losing it’s status… u should have at least a medium to high passing in common entrance or whatever is used today to enter d.g.s… oh and yes ‘we are special’… is not convent alone lol
Whats your point!
you sounding live somebody that did not even finish pre school de man point easy to understand and is the truth
Ah gunman
is pple like you i feel sorry for- look at the name you choose. For your information I teach at UWI
boy is true we all kind of Wavet going DGS now we DGS dont have any status again before when you tell someone you attending the DGS it was like attending cambridge but all now so gone are those days that finish
I THOUGHT HE WOULD KNOW BETTER BEING A COLLEGE STUDENT. SOME PEOPLE WISH THEY HAD
THE KNOWLEDGE LIKE YOU HAVE. I HOPE HE’LL
LEARN A LESSON FROM BEING LOCKED UP. YOU GET
A CHANCE TO BE OUT STAY AWAY FROM TROUBLE
AND BAD COMPANY.
@ MAY
He thought that he would not be caught.
don’t you think a better solution to teach a college student who should have known better already, would be to make him go to school while in jail. They could take him to his classes and if he passes all classes with good grades you could reduce his time.
Anybody can go to college… pointing a gun at someone to steal from them and scarring them for life doesn’t deserve bail.
This is not his first offense. His **s needs to be in jail,
you can pay for school but you can’t buy intelligence.
So very, very true!!!
Bail money is only lost if you fail to go to court on the terms set.Therefore the money is not a lost.Now paying a Bail Bonds man is different,because you pay a % of the bail to them.
Bull Crap, I can see you are a perosn who do not undestand the meanings of legal terminology. The young man did not have “to pay” the sum of money mentioned. That amount of money is a form of security on his behalf against the name of another person to allow him the chance to be “out of jail” for the time being until the case is heard.
In the USA , when ever bail is posted, 10% of the amount goes to the Government, so in his case, the person who posted the bail would loose $3000.00. I think that Dominica should follow that patern
@ Satelite
If he skips bail, do not show up and cannot be found, the surety will have to pay that amount to the Court. People take chances when they put up bail money for others.
What the hell bail? Robbery alone? What was the gun used for?
Robbery is defined as using force. The GUN was used as force!!! Educate yourself!!!! They could have charged him with legal possession of a firearm but I guess robbery carries a long sentence, and is less work for them to do.
Hi Robbery is defined as Using Force to removed property from another but if you are armed with a Weapon or a Deadly Weapon(Which a loaded gun is) then that raises the Robbery to a Fisrt Degree Robbery which would carry a stiffer penalty. The article said he was released on $30,000 bail not a percentage of that, therefore someone either paid cash or some type of property worth that amount which is there to guaranty his return to court. If he do not return to court then they will forfeit the bail.
When does the firearm becomes legal?
How dumb can you be. You have to now pay $30,000. for only stealing $3,325.06.
WAS IT WORTH IT?
This is the problem with you morons these days, you want everything but don’t wanna work to get it. want everything easy and now.
Jackass.
your a college student don’t tell me you did not know better.
i so agree with you! utter rubbish i say!! these kids should be put on hard labour in the burning sun so they can see what it feels like when people have to work hard for their living
i really wonder though who is going to enforce that curfew. it seems ridiculous to me to have it if it cannot be enforced
Ankle bracelet maybe I’m just saying!
a piece of pipe he need across his back,petty dumb thief.
Doh worry bro, he will get his ‘piece of pipe’ up Stockie, but not on his back.lol
@ forreal
This is no petty thief. Dumb, yes since also he was attending school.
It is called BAIL BOND!!!!!! No money needed just someone to sign for you with their land paper in hand.
seeing the level of yall intelligence? you don’t even understand what bail is. look you telling the man he have to pay 30 grand. I tell u…there is never a dull moment on DNO which these people commenting under stories..particularly the political news…what a mess…what a shame..
@ Bull Crap
I am assuming that the money is for lawyers fees, for robbing the gas station and for what he did to the woman employee. Did they damage the property? If they did, then compensation has to be paid to the gas station owner. This also includes loss of revenue.
Which one of them was the primary perpetrator/organizer of this robbery? It boils down to bad company corrupts. They have to pay the price for their actions.
