Disgraced attorney-at-law Ernest Winston Jackman, who a High Court judge said had “significantly” breached the trust between himself and a former client he stole over half a million dollars from, will spend the next six years in prison.The sentence was imposed by Madame Justice Pamela Beckles on the 67-year-old for theft as well as money laundering after his promise to repay the money by Wednesday did not materialise.When Jackman last appeared before the judge in the No. 5 Supreme Court earlier this month, his sentencing was delayed by two weeks, at his request, to allow him time to repay the over $286 000 still owed to John Huggins.However, when asked if the funds had been paid, Huggins’ attorney Alrick Scott, KC, told the court his client had received none of the outstanding money.Jackman was in May this year found guilty of stealing $678 414.75 from HEJ Limited, of which Huggins was the principal shareholder and managing director, between June 23, 2006, and March 5, 2007. He was also convicted of engaging in money laundering by disposing of the sum between June 23, 2006, and October 18, 2011.
