\u201cThat bottom is mine,\u201d were the words Gibson told the complainant, after she asked him why he committed the assault.<\/p>\n
This is according to the facts of his case, which were presented by police prosecutor Claude Weekes before Magistrate Candia George today. Gibson pleaded guilty to his charge of battery.<\/p>\n
The incident, according to Weekes, occurred at about 5:30 p.m. on November 26.<\/p>\n
When approached on the matter, Gibson told police that he only slapped the complainant on the hand.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s my friend,\u201d he told the court asking for leniency. He pleaded with the magistrate to impose a fine as opposed to a custodial sentence, stating that he had just gotten a job at Solid Waste and that his birthday was coming up.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell you will be spending your birthday in your favourite place,\u201d Magistrate George said in reply.<\/p>\n
\u201cI believe the lady more than I believe you. Learn to keep your hands to your side,\u201d she also told him.<\/p>\n
She initially sentenced Gibson to two months imprisonment but after an unruly uproar while he was leaving the courtroom, it was increased to four months.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the court passes a sentence, you behave yourself,\u201d the magistrate blurted, visibly annoyed by Gibson.<\/p>\n
Gibson began sobbing and continued arguing. He was restrained by court security and taken outside the courtroom.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat kinda thing is that nuh boy? I doe do nothing man,\u201d he said exiting the court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mark Anthony Gibson, a repeat offender, has been sentenced to serve four months in prison for slapping a female ACS Gas Station Attendant on the buttocks while she was on duty. \u201cThat bottom is mine,\u201d were the words Gibson told…","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]","footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-49837","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-crime-court-law"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
