Woman denies obstructing court marshals, assault

A hairstylist will return to the District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court in January after denying charges of obstructing two court marshals and assaulting one of them. Reena Latisha Carter, 40, of no fixed place of address, pleaded not guilty to obstructing court marshals Cheryl Ann Francis and Cregg Mayers in the performance of their duties, and to assaulting Francis, occasioning her actual bodily harm, last Thursday. The court set bail at $ 7 500 after Carter told the court she was living with a relative. There were no objections to her release. The case will continue on January 8. (JB)
