May 1, 2014

Appearing in Magistrates Court yesterday, [Apr 30], a 23-year-old man admitted stealing $1900 from his employer, and denied additional and separate charges of theft.

Zane Hodgson pleaded guilty to stealing $1,900 cash in July 2013. He also pleaded guilty to multiple counts involving stealing and using cheques and dishonestly obtaining a total of $1,750 cash by presenting those cheques.

Prosecutor Loxly Rickett told Magistrate Khamisi Tokunbo that Mr. Hodgson had been employed for two weeks by Eve’s Cycles and had stolen the $1,900 in cash from his employer’s handbag.

He also faced additional charges, and pleaded not guilty to stealing $1,300 in cash in December 2013 and stealing a large sum of jewelry between September 1 and September 30, 2013.

Mr. Hodgson, said to be of no fixed abode, was remanded into custody pending sentencing on the counts to which he had pleaded guilty.

    Dont send him jail. Chop off his fingers so it will remind him not to steal and save us taxpayers money.

    This is why many businesses in Bermuda are hesitant to place young people in positions of trust.

    Why do this? He had a job. So many people are unemployed and would love to be employed. Not only that but he’ll have a hell of a time finding a job now. Who is going to hire a thief? And he is only 23. This act will follow him for the rest of his life and put downward pressure on his employment prospects.

    Why do this?
