COURT OVERTURNS LARCENY CONVICTION OF FORMER NODS EMPLOYEE

Former relief manager at the National Office of Disaster Services, Dion Browne is demanding compensation after the Appeals Court overturned his larceny conviction.
In 2018, police accused Browne and NODS driver Everton Waldron of stealing hurricane relief supplies from the disaster agency.
The case went to trial and a magistrate convicted the men September 2019.
Browne appealed his conviction and last month the court of appeal set aside the magistrate’s decision.
The appellate court also decided not to order a retrial of the matter.
