SOURCE: CMC – The Speaker of the House in the Cayman Islands, McKeeva Bush, was on Monday given a suspended sentence for three assault charges levelled against him following an altercation at a local bar earlier this year.
When he appeared in court, Bush was actually sentenced to two months’ imprisonment on each assault charge to run concurrently, which was suspended for two years.
Although the veteran politician was not sentenced to jail, he will have a conviction recorded against him.
He was also ordered to adhere to a curfew of 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Sunday for the next two months and was fined US$700 for disorderly conduct.
