Prince Edness Jailed For Two Years

March 24, 2011

25-year-old Prince Edness was today [Mar.24] jailed for two years after previously pleaded guilty to charges including threatening and assaulting a female last month.

The charges stemmed from incidents occurring between 4th and 7th February this year. They commenced with the assault which took place outside the Captain’s Lounge. The Court heard that said that following the assault, Mr Edness and others sent text and voice messages to the complainant which told her that she would be safer and would be paid if the matter was dropped.

Mr Edness has been remanded in custody since last month, when the charges were laid. Two additional men, Jari Fischbacher and K’Wonde Lathan, were also charged with obstructing the course of justice and conspiring with Prince Edness and others not before the court to prevent the course the justice, in relation to this same incident.

Mr Edness is alleged to be a high ranking member of the Parkside gang.

      Yes, he was locked up for being who he is – a gang thug wannabe who got caught!! Are you saying he shouldn’t have been locked up? Gimme a break – don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time. Lock him up and throw away the key.

    • Grizz says:

I don’t care if he is Parkside, Darkside, 42, 24, uptown, downdown. I don’t give a damn, just glad he is gone. Glad it wasn’t my daughter he slapped cause he would have never made it court. They love the STREETS then give em STREET JUSTICE!! Oh I’m sorry is that immature too….puleeeese

        Sad to say honey, but everything you said in your statement is the truth. However, there is a solution to all this bullsh!t… We need to wise up as a nation and get serious to the matter or many more will die, for senseless things. One!

    • About Time! says:

      Are you serious!?

  6. Malcolm X says:

    Yea that will give him enough time to pump some iron and give him a story to tell his peers. He needs to be hel responsible for his gang’s activity so he can get more time.

    • The mon says:

I’m sure you don’t even kno the whole truth to this “story” that has been given to the court!! U all seem to be more mad at the fact that he’s a “parkside member”, than for his conviction…which honestly happens everyday and ppl dont get nearly as much time as he did. Grow up!!

  7. YOUR ACTIONS WILL BE JUDGED says:

    IM QUITE HAPPY THAT SCUM BAG GOT A LITTLE TIME…DONT DROP THE SOAP!

  8. dat guy says:

  9. Nicole says:

    I was wondering when the support team was going to show up. Quicker than usual.

    • AnnoyedByIgnorance says:

      Supporting Him ALL the way…that’s what family is for!

      • relief says:

        @ annoyed….actually families should be there to help guide and mold a person into a respectable, responsible and positive member of society!

        • AnnoyedByIgnorance says:

          As well as be supportive of family wen they are being judged by ppl who have no idea…but go by hearsay!

  10. Love my island! says:

    It is so sad to see another Bermudian man goig to jail. Why should we feel sorry for him the only people I feel sorry for is his family. He is one of the main leaders of Parkside by him going to jail you never know you might have saved a life. These young man have no regard for human life.

  11. John Doe says:

    All you people are anonymous cowards. Why not reveal who you are and talk the same crap on here?!?

    • itwasn'tme says:

      Stupid…..so I cud get shot at, or my family …my son, daughter harrassed by gansta idiots like you. Stupid!

    • ok says:

    • GPS says:

      WTH!…ISN’T JOHN DOE A SECRET NAME?!?!?…LMFAO!!!….

      SOUNDS LIKE A STAY-AT-HOME GANGSTER TO ME

    • Grizz says:

      funny spoken from someone who’s alias is John Doe!!!

  12. Some People says:

    John Doe – Pot calling the kettle black I see

  13. Unbelieveable says:

    ALL you ppl on here a freaks…..just cause it him u sayin hip hip horray would u be sayin d same if it was one of ya peers just because u dont socialize with him um damn sure you socialize with someone else dat does d same crap he does…he got time cool but dont act like you all dont hang with somebody dat has de same mind frame as him. grow up and get a life

  14. Terry says:

    John Doe has a valid point. And as soon as you gang bangin supporters realise that it may be too late.

    The irony being that the tag on your toe will suffice for the time as “John Doe” until someone claims your body.

    • Lawyer Feezz says:

      FIRST TIME YOU’VE SAID SOMETHING WITH REAL IRONY….GETTING BETTER THERE TERRY

  15. YA KILLIN ME says:

    I want to know why they are taking his time into consideration?????? That is what i really would like to know

  16. SMH says:

    You all are retards! Locking him up won’t do crap, he’ll be out before you know it and then you will all once again be complaining about all the gangsters and the Bermuda courts.

    • Lawyer Feezz says:

      His sentence should have included; going to schools around Bermuda and letting the kids know that Gang Banging is a waist of LIFE!!

      • The mon says:

        ooooh you mean like they did with Yankee lol Please they have to change first and I think most of them are have to much fun to want right now.

    • BOO says:

      BERMY’S JUSTICE SYSTEM KILLS ME THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH MURDER LIVE GOOD IN JAIL… AND HAVE NO REPROCUSSIN ….. CAUSE EVERYONE DANM WELL IS RELATED (BY INCEST)LOL DAMN BERMUDIANS!! YALL MAKE ME LAUGH!!!

      • AnnoyedByIgnorance says:

        I’m sorry was his conviction for murder…for having possession of a gun…knife??? I thought not…So how the hell is he getting away with murder??

  17. Terry says:

    Because he is a Prince. Now if we were living in Colonial times he would have been made a Knight of the Grand Order of Parkside..KGOP………

    Plus the prison is full of gang bangers and they are running out of soap………………Talk about getting screwed…….we all are…..Take em up to Morgans Point…………Momma will still take me back and pee at 4.30am…..

  18. About Time! says:

    I know he is not going to serve the full sentence, but i will cheer as well because this means he is off the streets for a while!!!!!!!!!!!! It was long overdue!

    • Terry says:

      Is he guilty of something ‘About time’. Must have really been a menace in the area. And now you speak up? Wow….

      • About Time! says:

        Uh. Speak up about what? :s I simply said its about time he goes behind bars for a while. Everyone knows that he does not a have a clean rap sheet and it was about time he started paying for his actions.

        • AnnoyedByIgnorance says:

          So ummm, what’s on his rap sheet sweety?? Cause you seem to have alot of knowledge about it??

  19. White Jesus says:

  22. sick n tired!!!!! says:

    @Boo: Take note baby girl: other women who thought that a mans behavior like this was because of the woman/female he was with at the time are now dead in the ground!!!! He might have assaulted her, what will he do to u. Abusive behavior escalates as time goes on!!!!! Get yourself together while he’s locked down and hopefully u can walk away with pride and dignity and find someone to validate ur real self-worth!!!!!!!!!

  23. Jim Garlic says:

    Hey Boo ,Ya lookin for a real man??? Come check PaPa Garlic;I can tell you now, That Prince you thought you had turned out to be a straight up Frog…

  24. Boo says:

    its so funny to see you bermudians get bent outta shape over this…. let me tell yall something .. you are praising this guy like he is a God.. reality check..when he goes to foreign countires…. he is a nobody. he is just like any other black man walking this earth… i blame the Bermudian society for hyping these guys to the level they are at now. you think you can shout im parkside to real gun man away in places like jamaica or any of those serious islands. Bermuda is a joke… the justice system is a joke … and yes i just said that to see the readers go in a frenzy… Bermudians love drama…..

    • YA KILLIN ME says:

      @ Boo Now cause everyone was laughing at you, now you wanna come on here and try change up saying you only said it to see what people would say get over your self, from when the case first came out people where talking bad about the boy i guess this goes to say you LOVE drama ya damn self cause you just wanted to see what people would say!!! Get out of here with that crap.

  25. Jamie says:

    The person who deserves a “hip hip horray” is the girl that put him behind bars. This girl did not give in to him and his friends bribes or threats! A lot of times this kind foolishness goes on and too many people are scared to speak up, especially against “Prince”. It took alot for her to stand up and stay firm.

    Prince needs to take this time to think about his actions over the past few years and the people he’s hurt! Mmm, he may be a “shot-caller” in parkside, but we’ll see who calls the “shots” (no pun intended) behind bars!

    @ BOO – get over yourself! & wise up!

    • Sarah says:

      Very much agreed! Well done to the young lady, I hope she’s proud of herself. :)

  26. Realdeal says:

    @BOO STFU AND GET OVER IT!!!

  27. Eron Hill says:

    Allow me to inform you all on the situation. Mr.Edness is where he needs to be,regardless of the sentence. He deserves to be in jail. Ill have you know that this was a magistrates case therefore 2 years was the maximum for this kind of offence. So get over it, it is what it is. The justice system is out of control, the police cant stop crime. Its all of control… But I think its correct to say that once we compare these people to “gangsters” abroad they are just little boys

  28. HATERSSSS says:

    LOLOLOLOLOL… you all r very childish, name calling (scum bag, idiot) WHATS THE POINT.??????? done the crim & he has to pay for it. But NONE of you know him to judge… he is indeed a very nice young man, mislead by other peers which gives him the BIG name “Prince” which he than takes over the “PS”.!
    never the less, all of you ever have to say is negatiove comments, but i wonder what YOUR son,boyfriend,babydaddy,nephew,uncle are doing.??? SMH!!!!!

    MISS YOU P, stay up babii

    • dat guy says:

      @haterssss…… you just invited another 500 comments.

      3. Ive knonwn his for his 25 yrs of life
      4. This is something for him to reflect on and get his SH1t together.

      Life is all about chocies. He made the choices so he has to deal with the consequences given.

      • YA KILLIN ME says:

        Thank you Life is all about the chocies you make and he CHOOSE to live the life he is living. So get over you self “HATERSSSS”

        For some reason i think you and @BOO are one in the same, just give it a break and get over it no one really likes the boy just deal with it already!

        He made his bed now he will lay in it!

        • BOO says:

          WONDER WHAT YA BED LOOKS LIKE???? HMMMMMM ____ ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE ME!!!!

          • YA KILLIN ME says:

            POINT IS YA SIMPLE, SO JUST SHUT UP WHILE YOUR AHEAD!!!

            TALKING BOUT YOU ONLY SAID THAT TO SEE WHAT PEOPLE WOULD SAY IF SO YOU WOULD HAVE MADE A COMMENT AFTER THE FIRST ONE TO YOU THAT IT WAS JUST A JOKE BUT INSTEAD YOU LET LIEK 10 COMMENTS COME AT YOU, THEN YOU COME BACK TRYING TO SWITCH YOUR STORY AROUND!! GET OUT OF HERE WITH THE CRAP!!!

            BUILD A BRIDGE AND JUMP OFF OF IT.

            • BOO says:

      Imma pray for you right now “HATERSSSS”…

      Lord, please help this you lady help Prince

      Amen!

    • YA KILLIN ME says:

      o you shut the hell up too ok cause i know him and he is far from nice so you just keep missing him!!! He USE to be nice like when he was 12. aint no one hating on this freak

    • Echo of a Yout says:

      Come again? “Nice boys” do no go to prison.
      “Nice boys” do not get caught up with violence.
      “Nice boys” are not associated with ‘so called gangs’ aka ‘Park Side’
      “Nice boys” whether we know ‘Prince’ personally or not “Nice boys” do not have a bad reputation period, because “Nice boys” are no involved with negative speculation point period.

      “Nice boys” are not proven with out a reasonable doubt guilty of a criminal offence.

      I am sorry to say that your definition of ‘Nice’ is neither accurate or relevant.
      Its out of context completely… I think you need to have a check in Oxford Dictionary. I think your mistaking your Antonyms for Synonyms..

      I have nothing against Prince BUT the ‘word on the street’ has nothing positive to say about his lifestyle, in all fairness.

  29. Dee says:

    Yo! We can laugh and find this funny but he will be out of jail real soon, back out in the streets again… Jail is only going to put a S on his chest….my question is who the hell and when the hell are they going to start rehabilitating these so called gansters. Putting him in jail just to do it does not help this community very much. We need a better long term programme than the one we currently using. Thank you for taking him off the streets for today but what are we going to do about his tomorrow???????

  30. Dee says:

    Prince, I don’t know you but I pray that God will have mercy and forgiveness upon your soul. It is time to make a change and make a positive difference. Apparently you have a gift to lead…(think about it). I am not here to judge you but I am here to lend a helping hand. Every person has good and bad…I say this to you: NO MATTER HOW FAR WRONG YOU GO….TURN BACK!!! Peace and blessings!! May God be your guide!!!

    • Amen says:

      Dee – this was the most sensible post on here. Leave God to judge. The rest of us should just ensure that we live our own lives as best we can with honour and dignity and respect and morals. The more we do this for ourselves, hopefully the more we can teach this to our offspring and those we influence…but we can’t possibly expect for things to get better when the best we can do is write nonsense on here – blasting these males and offering mouthfuls of nothingness. It does nothing for ANY OF US. Figuring out where the shortfall lies, figuring out how to positively reach them, figuring out how to prevent the next generation of males from taking those routes should be our focus. I am by no means excusing any wrongs they have done. I just feel that God never makes mistakes, never sleeps and as bad as their actions may have been, maybe somewhere along the way there was a purpose for it. We each have our own share of battles. Crabs in a bucket never make it out alive together….and isn’t our aim to make a positive change TOGETHER?

  31. trust me says:

    look all u ppl.. dont get me started.the only reason he is in jail is because of hiis namme.and that itt lies in parkside.ritte ..well all u haterss can kill ur selfs. from my conserns he is a hansome black mann.ur all haterrs. and hipp hipp hoorayy is for 5 year olds take a breakk an grow upp…PLEASEEEEEEE IMMATUREEE

      AND WHATS WITH ALL YOUR DOUBLE LETTERS IN YOUR WORDS??? HOW OLD ARE YOU?????

      ALONG WITH “BOO” WITH “HATERSSS” GO BUILD A BRIDGE AND JUMP OFF IT!!!

  32. jus me says:

    @BOO You have a lot of sly comments directed to B’dians and about B’dians, if you don’t like it so much, why are you here…PACK YOUR BAGS…BOO!

  33. Street Nucca says:

    All You hating a$$ people need to just stop it!! Instead of talking bad about a person maybe you should stop and think of ways to help rehabilitate people once they have been incarcerated to help stop them from re-offending upon release.

  34. I'm Just Saying says:

    Lock his no good a$$ UP! And Throw away the damn key!!!! We all know what he’s linked too… Maybe we should bring back hangings for these murders.

    Hip hip Horrrraaaayyyyyyyy! All his mistress would be missing him now. Yup, all 35 of you! LOL!
