Jamaican cruise ship waiter gets 15 years for drugs

Jamaican cruise ship waiter gets 15 years for drugs - News - JamaicaObserver.com: "Jamaican cruise ship waiter who the prosecution said masterminded a plot to bring cocaine worth up to almost US$750,0000 into Bermuda has been jailed for 15 years.
Ricardo Valentine Stewart, 32, from Ocho Rios in St Ann, was convicted by a jury last month but he continued to deny any
involvement in the drugs operation when he appeared for sentencing yesterday, telling Puisne Judge Charles-Etta Simmons that he had been 'set up'.
'I am innocent. I have never tried to break the law. These guys don't like me for some reason,' he said.
His lawyer, Marc Daniels, told the court his client would appeal the conviction.
Stewart was at the centre of the smuggling ring that was smashed last June when a bag of drugs was found in a disco on board the cruise liner, Explorer of the Seas, while it was en route to Bermuda."
