Sevana pleads guilty to death by dangerous driving

Sevana pleads guilty to death by dangerous driving

WESTMORELAND, Jamaica – Reggae singer Sevana is facing a prison sentence of up to five years after she pleaded guilty to a death by dangerous driving charge when the matter was called up before the Westmoreland Circuit Court on Monday.

She will be sentenced on November 17.

The 30-year-old singer, whose real name is Anna Blake, was charged following an accident last May.

Blake was travelling along the Scott Cove main road in Whitehouse, Westmoreland, when the Honda City motor car she was driving collided with a Honda Fit going in the opposite direction.

Ordia Cordiel, who was a passenger travelling in the Honda Fit, sustained severe injuries and was admitted to the Black River Hospital, where she later died. Sevana’s brother was also injured in the accident.

The singer was represented by attorney-at-law Everton Dewar, who didn’t comment on the plea as the matter is still sub judice, that is, under judicial consideration and therefore prohibited from public discussion.

Sevana is known for the singles ‘Mango’, ‘If You Only Knew’ and ‘Man Down’.
