FREEPORT - Darlin Jean was convicted this week in the Supreme Court of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor.

Jean, 27, was charged with having unlawful sex with a young girl on August 30, 2010.

He was represented by Nassau attorney Raquel Huyler.

The trial opened on Monday before Senior Justice Hartman Longley. Erica Kemp and Olivia Blatch of the Attorney General's Office appeared on behalf of the Crown.

As the prosecution called its first witness to the stand, Jean decided to change his plea to guilty.

Justice Longley remanded Jean to Her Majesty's Prison until March 26 for sentencing.
