ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI- St Vincent and the Grenadines national Allidain Bristol, 33, pleaded guilty to Illegal Entry when he appeared virtually before Magistrate Khadeen Palmer on Thursday, February 10, 2022.

Persons in contravention of the Immigration law face a maximum of a $100,000 fine and 10 years in prison on summary conviction.

The prosecution had argued that the offence of illegal entry is prevalent in the territory and also posed health risks to the entire territory due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It also noted, this time as a mitigating factor, that Bristol pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity, which would entitle him to a discount on his sentencing.

Magistrate Palmer deferred her sentencing on Valentine’s Day, Monday, February 14, 2022.

    Will be more easy to put him in the fist plane and send him home, we don't need to spend time and money on him.

      It will be more cheaper to put him on the next flight out of dodge. You want to come here, do it the legal way and you will have no problems.

    Why do they keep hiding out here? You don't see BVI landers hiding out in their neck of the woods. They come here to do their dirt or are running away from their justice system, where they did their dirt. Let's get all of the illegals out of our small islands.
