Cayman News Service

(CN): Nicholas Romano Forbes (31), from Bodden Town, pleaded guilty on Friday to two charges of GBH, admitting that he stabbed one man in the stomach and another in the eye at the parking lot at Seven Mile Shops in June. No details of what led to the violent stabbing were revealed in court, but despite the serious charges, Forbes was bailed until February, when he will be sentenced. His defence attorney argued against a curfew, although Forbes is wearing an electronic tag, as he said this was an “isolated incident”.

    Word on the street is that this young man was defending the honour of two so-called-friends that in turn have since suddenly and “inaccurately testified” against him, shall we say. There was also video evidence from the plaza that supports this information also, but not sure if the RCIPS bothered to secure this recording or if this has since been disposed of too. Money talks in Cayman, and that’s all people listen to!

    Young people, be very careful of the company you keep out there! They will use you and turn on you at the drop of a hat if it saves their own backsides!

    Watch your “friends” and those you defend. Because in the end, when their backs are against the wall, they will tell pure lies to save their own skins! IYKYK….

    Everybody only worried about what he did. So what happened about the two SOBs that ganged him? He did what he had to do to protect himself!!!

    OBVIOUSLY, it was self defense!!! Two against him one!!! Him and him alone!!!

    What happened if it was them that stabbed him and possibly killed him?

    Would the story be the same? Wouldn’t you say he should have carried a weapon to defend himself.

    Do you think he deliberately stabbed him in his eye?!?! There was probably so much movement that it happened at that part of the body.

    Y’all are so friggin twisted!!!!

    Can’t please unna a-holes on this island! Makes me sick!

      Took a knife. Got in a fight. Stabbed 2 people. Pathetic. Why did he think he needed a knife? What had he done? Sounds like he went looking for trouble and found it. “Ya’ll”, “unna” make your mind up, you a Florida community college drop out or a bad boy yardie. Grow up.

    wonder if that the best his lawyer cud do. Maybe if it went to court he would get off on self defense if he was ganged up on. Seems like them two think dey run things at that club. I suppose people might be fraid to say anything bout them so that why lawer say plead guilty.

    How does the court let him out on bail after he is convicted of a crime that obviously requires jail time? He will get credit for all time served. Judge, please consider public safety.

    I do not know the circumstances around this and did not witness the event… but anybody who goes to seven mile shops armed with a knife does not deserve the benefit of the doubt. Go to jail thug

      This island has become like our neighbors and it’s a lawless island. All you have to do is look at the driving here to start and our leaders of this country.

    Sounds like they tried to gang him and he caught them back with the element of surprise. It was clearly two vs one. He will definitely get jail time for using a weapon.

            Funnily enough no. Don’t hang out with losers. Never been in a fight. Never felt the need to carry a weapon. I’m obviously not as tough as you tragic little dollar shop gangsters hanging out at 7 mile shops. LOL

          Gang – Caymanian slang. Two or more individuals together take part in a violent altercation involving the exchange of physical blows or the use of weapons against a sing individual.
