Judge recuses himself, rules Reid, Pinnock, et al have cases to answer

Court dismisses Ruel Reid s application to throw out fraud case

Former Education Minister and Senator Ruel Reid to stand trial for fraud. (Photo: JIS) Chief Parish Judge Chester Crooks has ruled that the fraud case involving former Education Minister Ruel Reid and his co-accused is properly before the court and should proceed to trial in due course. As a result of Crooks’ ruling in the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court today, the matter was set for case management on July 27. Hugh Wildman had previously argued before Crooks that the case against ex-Senator Reid and Fritz Pinnock, president of the Caribbean Maritime University (CMU), should be thrown out. Wildman’s ground for the application was that his clients were arrested by officers of the Financial Investigations Division (FID), which, he argued, has no jurisdiction to do.
