Jennifer represented a defendant charged with conspiracy to supply class-A drugs and money laundering over a two-year period. The indictment period began on the day the defendant was released from a four-and-a-half-year sentence for hard labour imposed by the Trinidad & Tobago courts for attempting to export 15kg of cocaine from that country. This conviction, and a previous conviction in the UK for importing cocaine, were known to the jury. The defendant was acquitted of both charges following a two-week trial.
