John Tavares, Observer correspondent
Saturday, April 24, 2004

SPANISH TOWN, St Catherine - Popular entertainer, 32 year-old dancehall artiste Frisco Kid who has been accused of having sex with a minor, will return to the Spanish Town Resident Magistrate Court on May 11, 2004 when the case will again be mentioned.

The entertainer, whose real name is Clive Wray, was granted bail in the sum of $150,000 when he appeared in court on Tuesday.

Allegations are that on Easter Monday - April 12, 2004 - a 15 year-old student who knows the DJ well, told her stepsister, in writing, that she was having an intimate relationship with Frisco Kid.

The teen's stepsister showed the letter to their mother who informed the police and the DJ was arrested, according to court records.

He was granted bail by Senior Resident Magistrate Lorna Gayle after his lawyer made a successful bail application.

And a 39 year-old minister of religion, who has been accused of forcefully engaging in oral sex with his landlady and then attempting to rape her, will return to the Spanish Town court on May 18 to answer a charge of indecent assault with intent to rape.

St Catherine resident, Rev Peter Rennis, also hadhis $50,000 bail extended on Tuesday during his court appearance.

Allegations are that at about 6:00 pm on March 22 of this year, the complainant, who is a 41 year-old higgler, was lying on a bed in her apartment when Rev Rennis approached her. He reportedly dragged her out of her room and into his, locked the door with the keys and then pocketed them.

The court was told that he then ripped off the complainant's clothing and forcibly engaged her in oral sex. The woman suffered bruises to her side as she resisted the pastor's attempt at penetration, according to court documents.

At this point, the man of the cloth allegedly gave up and walked out of the room.

The woman later reported the matter to the Waterford police station, which led to Rev Rennis' arrest.
