Man freed after spending six years in custody files lawsuit against cop and Attorney General

A 31-year-old man who spent six years in custody, before he was freed in June of a murder charge, has filed a lawsuit against police Corporal, Ozel Stewart and the Attorney General.

Environmental warden Nicholas Gordon, is seeking special damages of $4.8 million, which include loss of earnings and legal expenses.

He is also seeking damages for false imprisonment, malicious prosecution and exemplary damages.

He was charged on the basis that Michael Britton, gave a dying declaration on his way to the hospital in February 2016, that it was Gordon who shot him.

It was disclosed at the trial, that in the first statement the witness gave to the police, she said the deceased could not communicate when being transported to hospital.

However, the statement was never revealed to the prosecution, nor the defence until during the trial.

The witness admitted under cross-examination, that she did not tell the police, that Britton said Gordon had shot him.

Gordon was freed in the Home Circuit Court, after the judge upheld a no-case submission by the defence lawyers that the statements were contradictory.

Attorney-at-law Anthony Williams, who represented Gordon at his trial, filed the lawsuit on Gordon’s behalf, on November 14 in the Supreme Court.

Gordon is contending that Corporal Stewart failed to conduct proper investigations, and unlawfully and without reasonable cause, arrested him.
