The defendants, who gave their address as Lot 14 Norton Street, Werk-en-rust, Georgetown, made successful bail applications.
Abigail Nelson stated that she is currently unemployed and that she attends classes at the Berea Royal College located in Barr Street, Kitty, while Quaison Nelson told the court that he is employed as a mechanic. The couple has a one-year-old son.

Quaison Nelson then stated that he can remove from the premises and live at his employer’s residence which is located at Lamaha Street, Newtown.
Quaison Nelson was granted bail to the tune of $20,000. Abigail Nelson’s bail was set at $10,000.
They are both expected to return to court on November 8.
