    Man jailed following vicious attack on former girlfriend

    Coggie Gibbons
    Reporter

    A Pembroke man who tried to choke his former girlfriend and beat up a man who intervened to help her has been sent to jail for 18 months.

    Maxwell Mustafa Smith, 34, of Hill Crescent pleaded admitted assaulting the woman on March 25 in Pembroke.

    He also admitted a charge of grievous bodily harm to Ivan Craig Smith and wilfully damaging the woman’s car to a cost of more than $60.

    Senior Crown Counsel Carrington Mahoney told the court that Maxwell Smith and his former girlfriend had already broken up when he saw her in a car with Ivan Smith in the Spanish Point area and chased them on his motorcycle.

    He cut them off, the prosecutor said, and went berserk – throwing her property out of the car’s boot.

    The woman got out of the car and Maxwell Smith began yelling and cursing at her, blocking her path and buckling the car door when she tried to get back in.

    Ivan Smith tried calming Maxwell Smith only for the latter to punch him in the face, fracturing facial bones and splitting his lip.

    Turning back to his target, Maxwell Smith grabbed her around the throat and began choking her, saying: “I’m going to choke you to death!”

    He then pushed her backwards over a wall and onto a road below, causing scratches to her body.

    When he took money from her purse, she ran into a nearby barbershop for refuge before escaping in the car when his attention was distracted.

    In court Maxwell Smith told Senior Magistrate, the Wor. Khamisi Tokunbo: “I apologize. There’s no justification for what I did. It was out of character.”

    “You can’t take your rage and anger out on a person like that,” Mr. Tokunbo said.

    He sentenced Mr. Smith to 18 months in jail for the grievous bodily harm, 12 months for the bodily harm and three months for the damage, all to run at the same time.

      @4EYES – there is more than one maxwell smith in the island. It’s obvious that you know him and hold ill feelings towards him. unless that story you just posted happened 6 years ago or there was a typo in the story. The MaxwellSmith pictured above is 40 and not 34

      • character flaw says:

        It did happen years ago. I believe the post was to show the character of Maxwell Mustapha Smith who was definitely the perpetrator in the above news report.

      • 4eyes says:

        @IAMAWINNA – yes.. it did happen six years ago..highly unlikely that someone would have an identical middle name that is quite “unusual”, for a Bermudian, unless of course you are of Middle Eastern descent.

        And no I do not know him, but it’s called freedom of speech..I do have my own opinion.

  4. swinging fromchandoliers!!! says:

    @4eyes–okay–come out come out wherever you are Maxwell, nice looking guy,…obviously has a temper like anyone of us may when it comes to love/emotions…does he have any priors to the above event.I don’t condone his behaviour but he admitted it was out of character because I’ve seen many sensible people lose all sense when itcomes to their relationships…

    • 4eyes says:

      @swinging..that’s what’s wrong with Bermuda..too many enablers..too many excuses for bad behaviour.

      If someone said they were “going to choke me to death”, then I would fear for my life…perhaps he is on his way to look for his ex-girlfriend again.

      Maybe the police should be providing protection for her!!

      • Wheerzs Waldo? says:

        Exactly what I was thinking. Too many excuses, to many enablers. There is never a good excuse! We are all human with brains and common sense. Too often our judgement is clouded by alcohol and drugs and other things but all right thinking people know the difference between right and wrong and all have the ability to make choices. Am I better than he is …no, have I made similar mistakes in life, yes. Did I know what I was doing…yes!

      • Just Us says:

        Some women like a good knock up side their heads, It makes um see straight or something… I don’t know what it is but they seem to keep going back to the same bad azz dudes… SMH And it seems to all the cute guys women like. LMAO

    • simonsbda says:

      @swinging from chandoliers he does in fact have priors to that incident…it was not out of character

    • sitting back and watching says:

      I hope they find him and you can date him. I think that would be a quick cure for stupid comments. Someone in court admits it is out of character??? LOL!!!! That sh*t must be true then!!!!

    • Free says:

      Wow you sound like one of those stupid women who love to get beat on and it’s okay because the guy is “nice looking”, to you. Get some help.

      • swinging fromchandoliers!!! says:

        @freee–and you are a f@(kin @$$hole! saying something nice about someone doesn’t tell you anything about anybody, some of you are too quick to judge. if you knew me you would vomit back your words idiot! I’ve never been beaten on by a guy in my life! so shhshhhhhh!if anything he would have never been in that predicament if I knew him!

        • Free says:

          Yes it does. If you are complimenting his looks even after someone told you he beats women and chalking it up to just having a “temper” cause you think he’s cute. With your thirsty self. You sound real mature and even if you don’t like to be knocked upside the head you still sound very silly.

        • DarkSideOfTheMoon says:

          “Vomit back”??? isn’t that an oxyMORON?

          • swinging fromchandoliers!!! says:

            @darksideofthe moon–so do you have something against an oxymoron? is this english 101?whats the penalty?

            @free—u are just as clueless about me as I appeared about this missing person, you couldn’t be farther from the truth when it comes to your insinuations about me, but guess what you are spot on about that missing person…and I am aware of that! sometimes I like to experiment..people do tend to be judgemental and we lean upon gossip instead of facts..but we can hide behind a pen name, however we don’t have a clue who each other is ok..ok..!!

            • Free says:

              I wish you would post under your real name so I could avoid you at all costs in person. What a shame. I’m not clueless about you as you were to this person because you posted the comment AFTER you knew what he did.

              Please do better. I’m trying to be nice here and the spelling/grammar/punctuation. Lawd.

  5. bermy drew says:

    He is a 2 legged rat!!!!

  6. Truth says:

    ____ If he is truly missing, I’m certain it will be in relation to his own lifestyle; a life he chose for himself. I’m also sure the police are not looking for him to award him citizen of the year. Do NOT judge a book by its cover.

  7. Baby says:

    @ Bermy Drew and @ Truth …… I agree with you both, he is a 2 legged rat and he does live a shady life style….. honestly they aren’t looking for him the citizen of the year award, lol…..

    @swinging …. Honestly if you know Max then you would agree to what we have said. Yes you should never judge a person on hear say, but this is from 3 people that ‘know’ him. This island is full of enablers, we need to stop enabling young and old and hold them all accountable for their actions.

    But I am going to say though that he is someone’s son, someone’s father, brother, uncle or nephew ….. Everyone deserves to be safe and found. So hopefully he found.

  8. sitting back and watching says:

    All I can say is that Karma must have paid him a visit!!!!!

  9. life in a daze says:

    @swinging,,,WOW hopefully you are a woman ! and if you are I think you are taking that bad boy image a lil too far,, Just dont get some women like that kinna stuff, dont you watch Tempo! Baddnes Outta Style

    • swinging fromchandoliers!!! says:

      you guys are pretty funny…ok,ok, I don’t know the guy but didn’t wanna prejudge either..and factually speaking its not a bad looking picture ,but I’m not gonna wish harm on someone I don’t know, that would put me at his level…thanks for advice..

  10. sitting back and watching says:

    Just search the gazette webpage for his name and see how many hits you get ____

  11. truth says:

    this guy looks like “DJ Smokey”…the darker skinned version..lol

  12. tricks are for kids says:

    I don’t see anywhere in her comment that she wanted to date him….she just said he’s a nice looking guy (which he is)….he may be a “shady mcgrady”…but that doesn’t take away his looks..it actually is a nice picture….even though the police may not be looking for him for a citizen award lets hope he’s not a danger to the public at this point and time since they have neglected to say…

    • 4eyes says:

      @tricks are for kids..if you call that guy, nice looking, then you need another set of eyes..he looks like a little ‘strange’ to me.
      Wow, some of you Bermudian women really need to venture out in the world to allow you to see BETTER looking guys who are well groomed, have nice teeth, have good morals,integrity, educated and do not have abusive tendencies…

      But then again, there is a shortage of men in Bermuda..the ratio is now 10-1!!! LOL

      • Free says:

        Yup you know a lot of these women in Bermuda are thirsty as hell due to women outnumbering men greatly. He is not good looking and just looking at him I can tell he ain’t no good.

        • 4eyes says:

          Hey Free..couldn’t agree with you more..they will go with a man that doesn’t work, has bad teeth, has several baby mamas, is a dummy, just to have a man.
          I see it everyday, they drop these girls off to work and drive around in their cars, can’t imagine what they do all day..or can I?

          I have even heard of some men prostituting themselves..the women are paying them to have sex…OMG!!

  13. tricks are for kids says:

    Amazing how many people “search” as soon as they see a name…..

  14. BerTender says:

    I’ve known him as an acquaintance most of my years and as much as I do hope the dude is ok I totally won’t be surprised if ___ ___

  15. Cno evi hur no evil says:

    Well he ain at my house!!!!
