Gerardo George Connolly was found guilty Friday of robbery for using a screwdriver as a weapon to steal a car from a man who had been sleeping in his vehicle on Christmas Day last year.

Charges were dismissed Friday afternoon against Jeannie Lewis, the suspended immigration officer accused of permitting consumption of controlled drugs at her home and of knowingly assisting a person to remain unlawfully in the Cayman Islands.

A man who pleaded guilty to theft from a tourist was sentenced on Thursday to six months imprisonment after Magistrate Kirsty-Ann Gunn said such crimes could affect Cayman’s reputation as a first-class tourist destination.

Nearly two full days of proceedings was not enough to complete the trial of Cayman Brac artist Ronald “Foots” Kynes, who faces a charge of possessing an obscene publication in relation to four statues he had on display at his property since last summer.

Suspended senior immigration officer Jeannie Lewis has had her trial set for three days, starting June 18.
