Jahmesha Millwood

A former healthcare professional who fabricated multiple Covid-19 vaccination cards is facing substantial financial penalties for her actions.

Jahmesha Millwood, a resident of Bolans, admitted her involvement in an elaborate deception scheme, accepting responsibility for nearly two dozen instances of document falsification plus an additional charge of stealing blank immunization certificates.

Taking advantage of a momentary systems breakdown in the digital verification process, Millwood orchestrated her scheme in 2021.

She overstepped boundaries by authenticating immunizations, an authority strictly limited to medical staff who physically administered the vaccines.

In yesterday’s court proceedings, Justice Tunde Bakre imposed hefty monetary sanctions: $50,000 for document falsification and an additional $5,000 for the theft of blank certificates.

She has until the end of the year to pay $25,000 and will then have to find $5000 every month until the debt is paid. Failure to pay will result in her imprisonment for a year.

    Antiguans must be the dumbest of God’s creations. The thief is heralded as a hero and the law enforcers as villains. This woman is no hero but a common thief who sought to enrich herself at the possible expense of the country’s health. I hope that you, her disciples, will then pay for the paltry fine imposed, failing which she deserves to be confined along side those with similar leanings – thievery!
