Three residents of Leopold Street, Georgetown, appeared in court on Friday facing cross-charges of assault and property damage following an incident earlier this month.
Damien Elliot, 39; Casia Marks, 27; and Sarita David, 37, appeared before Acting Chief Magistrate Faith McGusty at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts. All three pleaded not guilty to the charges brought against them.
According to court records, Elliot is accused of assaulting Sarita David on January 6, at Leopold Street, causing actual bodily harm. David, in turn, faces a charge for unlawfully assaulting Casia Marks on the same day. Marks is charged with unlawfully assaulting Sarita David and maliciously damaging her property, including a bike cover, steering wheel, and handle, valued at $48,000.
During proceedings, the prosecutor indicated he had no objections to bail but requested that the defendants be placed on a bond, noting that all three reside on Leopold Street.
Acting Chief Magistrate McGusty ordered the trio to be placed on a bond to keep the peace. Bail was granted to Marks, $40,000; Elliot, $20,000; and David, $10,000.
The case has been adjourned to February 13.
