A remorseful Randolph Hubert, who is visually impaired, walked out of court a free man yesterday, after he was spared by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan on a charge of damage to property.
The pensioner admitted to damaging several household items belonging to his wife, Desiree Hubert, after accusing her of cheating on him with another man.
Hubert, 67, of 46 West Front Road, Georgetown, pleaded guilty to the charge which stated that he unlawfully and maliciously damaged a stove, mat, bowl, spoon and a plastic stand, all belonging to Desiree Hubert, on September 5.
Police Prosecutor Deniro Jones told the court that on the day in question Mr. Hubert accused his wife of cheating on him. Jones said that when Mrs. Hubert denied the allegation, her husband became annoyed and an argument ensued. As a result, the prosecutor related that the husband damaged the articles mentioned in the charge.
Mr. Hubert begged the court for leniency and said that he and his wife have been married for the past 43 years. “I am very sorry for what I did. I bought back the stove and asked her for forgiveness. I was so hurt…I thank God I didn’t follow the devil and hit her.”
The Chief Magistrate advised the man to be careful, since he does not see properly. She subsequently reprimanded him and discharged the matter. In response, Mr. Hubert promised that such an incident would never happen again.
