Keithesha Edwards
Bail has been granted to 21-year-old Keithesha Edwards from Belmont, who appeared in court yesterday facing multiple fraud charges totalling over $70,000.
The allegations involve a “box hand” savings scheme that has left many participants grappling with significant financial losses.
Edwards is accused of orchestrating the scam, facing three counts of obtaining money by false pretences and three counts of fraudulent conversion.
The charges date back to October 2023, revealing a months-long operation that has seemingly caused financial hardship for alleged victims.
When she appeared in court on Monday, Magistrate Conliffe Clarke granted Edwards bail set at $70,000, with a $7,000 cash component and other conditions.
Her committal hearing is on January 23, 2025.
I feel like her bail should be hire than this. Let her feel what the individuals who was affected by this felt
A pretty face and bad character
Dem the kinda livin’ can’t hold Chaka, follow me!
A pretty face and bad character
Dem the kinda livin’ can’t hold Chaka
… Seh gal yuh pretty
Yuh face it pretty but yuh character dirty
Gal yuh just act too, flirty, flirty
Yuh run to Tom, Dick an’ also Harry
An’ when yuh find yuh mistake
Yuh talk ’bout yuh sorry, sorry, sorry
Granting her bail is ridiculous. She should be facing some real criminal times. This is like robbing a bank. It’s not even as little as $5000 and she’s still getting bail after a whole 90k if I remember correctly
She probably was trying to get a new leg for Dj Crutches for Xmas
This is no justice for the victims. How will they be repaid?
So are u saying the charges should be dropped so they can br repaid
I believe that is what they are saying. But she should have taken that bail money and pay people back. If she can find money for bail she can find the people phukin money in she fake rass
That bail too low. That is a crime to be repeated because apparently crime does pay.
My issue is if she can find the money to pay for bail then find the ppl damn money in she rass.
Well, they want dress up and look expensive at othe hard woring individual expense. Young lady go get a skill and work hard for your fancy clothes, hair and makeup. Them too jealoys and lazy.
So what about those fallen victim to her fraud?
Baill??
Repent my dear and put all this dirty life behind. Such a beautiful young woman. It’s not too late to do the right thing.
Let’s talk about how those are affected will be repaid.
Those who are affected*
these type of people should be banned off the roads
the should not alow her back on the streets
She is too young to put herself in box or been a box holder why should people put their trust in a young lady as such she looks like a lavish spender
