Skylar Mack and Vanjae Ramgeet – the couple whose quarantine breach case has garnered international headlines – had their sentences reduced from four months to two months in jail.
Both were originally ordered to perform 40 hours of community service and pay $2,600 to the Cayman Islands government. That amount is the standard each person must pay to stay at a government-approved quarantine facility.
Jeanne Mack, grandmother of the U.S. student jailed in the Cayman Islands for violating quarantine laws, speaks out on ‘America’s Newsroom.’
The grandmother of a Georgia college student who was jailed in the Cayman Islands for failing to follow coronavirus quarantine guidelines told Fox News on Monday that she has written to President Trump seeking the U.S. government s help in the case.
Jeanne Mack made the remark ahead of an appeals court hearing Tuesday for Mercer University student Skylar Mack and her boyfriend, Cayman Islands-based competitive jet-skier Vanjae Ramgeet, who each have received four-month sentences. She’s terrified. She called me last night, she couldn’t sleep, Jeanne Mack told Fox News when asked about the hearing.
