Ganja traffickers get five years jail

Latoya Osborne

Two men were yesterday each sentenced to 56 months behind bars after they were found guilty of ganja trafficking, a day after their alleged co-conspirator, pregnant 19-year-old Latoya Osborne, was acquitted.

Ziggy Webster and Julius Joyce were sentenced by Magistrate Judy Latchman, who found them guilty of trafficking 255 grammes of cannabis at the conclusion of their trial in Georgetown.

In addition to the prison sentences, the two friends were also fined $382,500 each.

Osborne, Webster’s reputed wife, was found not guilty of the charge on Thursday,
