A 27-year-old man from St James, Barbados, has been ordered to pay a $5,000 fine after entering guilty pleas to three violent offenses, including wounding and two counts of assault. Justin Jamar Maynard, who lives in the Block 7C neighbourhood of Haynesville, faced his sentencing at the Holetown Magistrates’ Court on Friday, where the details of his May 19 offences were formally processed before Magistrate Cuffy Sargeant.
Alongside the steep financial penalty, the court issued a strict timeline for payment: Maynard must settle the full $5,000 fine within the next 30 days to avoid additional legal penalties. In an unusual procedural step, the court has also scheduled a follow-up court date for June 18, 2026, requiring Maynard to return to the Holetown courthouse nearly two years from now for official check-in on his sentence compliance.
