Released convict back in jail for armed robbery

Some two months following his release from prison after he served an 18-month sentence, 24-year-old Patrick Goodluck is back in jail again for armed robbery.

The young man of North Sophia appeared before Magistrate Fabayo Azore at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court where he pleaded not guilty to being armed with a knife and robbing Felicity Carmichael of $273,000 worth in items on February 25, 2018, at Pike Street, Kitty, Georgetown.

According to a police report, Goodluck held the woman at knifepoint and demanded that she hand over her money and other valuables. He escaped on foot; a report was made to the police, Goodluck was arrested and positively identified by the victim.

Police Prosecutor, Simon Payne objected to bail based on the fact that he is a repeat offender. Bail was denied and he was remanded to prison until May 2, 2018.

In 2016, Goodluck was jailed after being found guilty of attempted robbery.
