Man With 47 Convictions Sentenced | Barbados News

A man with 47 prior convictions, James Jonah Josiah Sandiford, just got nine months in jail for stealing over $5,000 from a tourist—including cash, passport, keys, and lip balm—and assaulting him with scissors. He also admitted to possessing drugs. Caught the next day with paraphernalia, he led police to where he’d dumped the loot (though the cash vanished).
