The claims state that on February 26,2014, the defendants were held by border patrol agents via the Manhattan Hudson River on a cruise ship coming from St. Maarten. Brackett and company was said to have the cocaine disguised in mixtures that weighed over five kilograms.

enforcement agents, including personnel from U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (“CBP”), boarded a cruise ship (the “Ship”)

St. Maarten.

COGGER, the defendant, was inside Room-1 when I entered with
STEGGLES. CBP agents explained to STEGGLES and COGGER, in
substance and in part, that they were going to search Room-1 and
items of luggage in Room-1. During the search of Room-1, the
CBP agents found and searched, among other things, two
suitcases. Each of the two suitcases contained a smaller

positive for cocaine. At the approximate time that the agents

STEGGLES and COGGER.

This is a disposition of too many intelligent and non intelligent men of Jamaican heritage. They are not ion life for the long haul. They make anywhere they are look bad because they are not natural contributors and if they don’t have it today..dem start sweat and is like they too quick to take the first tempting offer that comes their way.
But we have to start shaming the women involved with these grown arsed babies. Which woman who knows about woman hood wants a “man” who is not emotionally mature enough to know that there comes a point in life where the dream of fame and the material life that comes with it has to be cast aside for a trod more grounded in reality and consistency? (sorry for that long arsed sentence).
It’s embarrassing when relatively intelligent people hold onto the YOLO mentality.
Unless somebody put a gun to this man’s head, I have no sympathy for him He has just added to the reputation that too many Jamaican men suffer from arrested development syndrome, when we well and know this isn’t or never used to be the case.
everyman fi dem self inna dis not wan buziniz how it turn out as long as dem can walk weh r get a small time fi serve smh
Gone are the days when people get arrested and keep quiet. Every man for the self is the law of the land. In this day and age if people can’t realize that the drug game is over and done, dem a live in the past.
Actually, if you look at all the major Jamaican drug organization, the workers always roll over when caught. Every man wants a deal to lessen their 15+ years in prison, even the hardcore druggist. That is the name of the game and sooner or later most will get caught.
Doubt they understood what their rights were. I think they were given their rights but chose to talk right after without fulyunderstanding. evergive up your rights even if you are wrong ;).
^^ agreed never talk in the first instance. let your lawyer get involved n if u have to talk, talk then. Simple stuff that lawyers know can make big difference!
Atleast Dem nuh tek the rap by them self.
