Four Men Charged with Armed Robbery of Eight Americans, Accept Plea Deal

NASSAU, BAHAMAS – One of four men charged with the armed robbery of eight American missionaries in 2024 has accepted a plea deal.

Senior Justice Cheryl Grant-Thompson sentenced 22-year-old Jason Rolle to six years in prison in accordance with the agreement.

Upon the completion of his sentence, Rolle will be placed on probation for two years.

Rolle risks returning to prison for five years if he commits any crimes during the probationary period.

During the early morning hours of October 2, 2024, the missionaries from Clermont, Florida, were asleep at an Airbnb in Gambier, when they were awakened by thugs wielding knives.

They were robbed of jewlery, cash and cellphones.

Rolle was charged along with Stephano Wray, Omar Johnson, and Angelo Hanna.

The trial of the three other accused is still pending.
