Three of Grenada 17 due to be released
Saturday, December 2, 2006
ST GEORGE'S , Grenada: Three people convicted on eleven counts of manslaughter and sentenced to thirty years in prison will be released Saturday.
The three from the group known as the Grenada Seventeen are Andy Mitchell, Vincent Joseph and Cosmos Richardson.
A news release from the ministry of national security states under the law governing sentencing regulations, inmates’ sentences are reduced by one third if they have been deemed as being industrious and well behaved.
The ministry of national security adds that the planned release of the men is not based on any court action, but is instead as a direct result of the sentences being completed.
The release says these inmates have qualified for the reduction in their sentences and will be released after serving twenty years of their time.
