Last week on the News you saw street figure Kenneth “Big Tomâ€￾ Flowers complaining about being mistreated by the Police. He said they detained him in the cell block for 48 hours on a minor charge, the use of obscene language. 

Today he appeared in court to answer for that single charge. Flowers pleaded not Guilty to using obscene words to a Sergeant of Police!

Flowers was offered bail by bail in the sum of $500 plus one surety of the same which he was able to meet.  

Flowers is due back in Court #4 on October 2, 2019 when he is expected to be provided with disclosure in the matter.  A date will then be set by the court for his trial.

Flowers said police targeted him - and held him for that minor offence because he was unable to give them any weed, weapons or ammunition in exchange for his freedom.
