‘Chucky’ gets 11-year sentence for killing pensioner

Godfrey Gill

After six years awaiting trial, Godfrey Gill, one of the men who broke into the home of Better Hope pensioner David Ramkissoon and killed him during a robbery, yesterday learned that he has just about five more years behind bars.

Gill, called ‘Chucky,’ was sentenced on Friday to 11 years and four months in jail for the crime and Justice Simone Morris-Ramlall ordered that the prison authorities make deductions for the time Gill would have spent on remand.

He had been incarcerated since 2016.

At his arraignment last month, Gill pleaded not guilty to the capital offence, but admitted on the lesser charge that he, in the company of others, killed Ramkissoon during a robbery on August 21, 2016.
