admitted to breaking into his barracks and damaging more than $1,000 worth of property.

Wendy Morris, 27, of Rock Gardens, pleaded guilty in Magistrates' Court to the charges of unlawfully damaging her husband's and Government property.

Crown counsel Charmaine Smith described how, last December, Sean Morris returned to his barracks at Prospect to find that the window was broken and his room had been ransacked.

It was found that several personal items -- including a mobile phone, a TV and a games console -- were damaged to an amount totalling $1,455. A window, valued at $33, was also damaged.

Mr. Morris named his estranged wife as a possible suspect. When questioned by Police in May, she denied any knowledge of the incident but later admitted it.

Defence counsel Jaqueline McClallan said Morris' wife had been convinced of her husband's infidelity and that when she entered his room, she found evidence including a bra, underpants, used condoms and a picture of the other woman.

Senior Magistrate William Francis said despite the fact this was largely a domestic incident, Morris was charged with a crime and would have to be held accountable.

He fined Morris $150, $33 of which would be used to replace the broken window.

Mr. Francis then referred the case to a civil court, citing that he thought it would be better handled there.

YOUTH IN COURT FOR OUTBURST OF ANGER CTS Youth in court for outburst of anger A youth who damaged two doors in anger following a family argument will hear of his fate in October.

Joshua Jeremiah Hayward broke the doors, worth $250 each, at his residence on Cedar Avenue, Pembroke on May 24.

Crown counsel Lesley Basden said Hayward, 16, left the family home during the evening after a family argument, but returned later to find the door locked.

He threw a brick at the door and after it had come off its hinges, threw it in a nearby canal.

Ms Basden said he then went back and damaged another door, before the owners told him to leave. He refused to do so and the Police were called.

Hayward admitted wilfully damaging the doors and using offensive words in a public place.

Senior Magistrate Will Francis adjourned sentencing until October 7, pending a social inquiry report. Hayward will remain under the supervision of Social Services staff.
