Thursday, August 13th, 2015 Aaron Humes Reporting: Try though he might, there was no getting out of charges today for 26 year old Kareem Smith of Holy Emmanuel Street in Belize City.
The construction worker is accused of threatening his ex-common-law wife, whose name we will withhold for legal reasons, with a firearm, threatening to shoot her with it and attempting to throw her down the stairs at their residence.
Smith was read charges of aggravated assault and using threatening words and remanded into custody by Senior Magistrate Sharon Frazer until October 13, but not until he had literally gotten down on his knees in open court and begged the complainant to drop the charges, which she refused to do.
The incident took place at their residence on July 15.
