Bail Denied: 18-Yr-Old Gun Suspect
Appearing in Magistrates Court this morning [Dec.19] was 18-year-old Derrion Simons who was charged with being in possession of a gun and ammunition.
Mr Simons is alleged to have been in possession of Smith & Wesson revolver and ammunition in the area by the old Clayhouse Inn on North Shore Road in Devonshire on November 5th, 2011.
As the matter is indictable and can only be heard in the Supreme Court, Mr Simons did not have to enter a plea.
Mr Simons, wearing an orange prison suit, appeared with his defence lawyer Marc Daniels who made a lengthy submission that sought to have his client released on bail.
After hearing from the DPP’s Prosecutor and from Mr Daniels, Senior Magistrate Archie Warner rejected the request that Mr Simons should be freed on bail.
The Magistrate ordered that Mr Simons should be remanded in custody until he re-appears for a Short Form Preliminary Inquiry at 2:30pm on Monday 9th January 2012.

Easy case to beat as long as his dna isn’t on it. Police & dpp are as dumb as Noel Barnett!
i say lock him up and throw away the key he wants to play bad boy well he has to do bad boy time…. i agree 50 + years that would be one gunman of the streets now its more to go.
I totally agree with this black pearl.
You all sound VERY SILLY. Typical judgemental Bermudians. He has a family just like you do, who love him very much. He’s only 18 and who’s to say he wont get out and change his life? Chances are all of you on here know some one who is making or has made the same dumb choice he did! Don’t throw stones if you live in a glass house! And don’t wish years lost on his life that you wouldn’t want to see given to your son, daughter, brother or sister. He was wrong for having the gun but at the end of the day it is he who will have to live with his choice for the rest of his life.
Sigh – You need a bullet in ya Asssp, ppl like you with such a passive outlook is why this little punk owns a gun. Bet you if he would have shot one of your immediate family members that night before being caught you wont be on this site preaching lenience.
SMH
