Accused Thomas Andrew Bailey was back before the law court today with two additional charges.
The 41-year-old who appeared before Magistrate Alison Burke yesterday and begged for leniency while on his knees returned this morning charged with two offences involving Vashti Inniss Empowerment Centre.
It is alleged that Bailey entered the building as a trespasser with intent to steal between February 16 and 17. He stole fish worth $119. 92 , belonging to the Crown when he allegedly burglarized the place between February 17 and 18.
He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
When he appeared before Magistrate Burke yesterday he was charged with entering the same centre as a trespasser, between October 21 and 22, 2020 and stealing a grocery list of items including potatoes, macaroni, sugar, rice, flour, chowmein, box juices, cornmeal, oats, eggs, milk, tuna and tea bags. The goods totalled $120.21 and belonged to the HIV Food Bank.
The accused is also alleged to have entered The Print Company, between December 10 and 11, 2020 as a trespasser with intent to steal and again between December 29 and 30 where he reportedly made away with 20 rolls of toilet paper and ten rolls of paper towels worth $82 belonging to the business.
Bailey entered not guilty pleas to those charges today, as well as that on March 5, this year, being a reputed thief, he loitered on the premises with cause to believe that he was about to commit an arrestable offence.
The prosecutor objected to bail for Bailey on the grounds that he had a propensity to commit such offences and was known to the court, fears that he would re-offend and the fact that he had not fixed place of abode.
The accused too made his submissions on bail but it was denied by the District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court resulting in him being remanded to HMP Dodds until April 7.
