I’m re-aquainting myself with early episodes of Bosch my favourite LA detective at the moment.. she’s going to have to tread very carefully to stay on the planet…
Oleanvine Pickering Maynard, the former director of the British Virgin Islands Ports Authority convicted of a brazen drug smuggling plot, and her 33-year-old son, Kadeem Maynard, will be released from prison in the United States well ahead of schedule, according to government officials.
In June 2024, Pickering Maynard, 63, was sentenced to more than nine years in prison for her role in a plot to ship at least 6,600 pounds of cocaine from Tortola to the U.S. mainland. If released March 21 as scheduled, she will have been incarcerated for less than three years since her April 2022 arrest. In February, she was moved from a prison cell to a “reentry center” or home confinement in Baltimore, according to a Bureau of Prisons official.
Pleading guilty in May 2023 to a single count of conspiracy to import more than five kilograms of cocaine, Pickering Maynard avoided money laundering and racketeering charges by agreeing to testify against her former boss, then BVI Premier Andrew Fahie.
Kadeem Maynard was sentenced to 57 months in prison. If released from a Florida prison April 1 as scheduled, he would have been incarcerated less than 36 months.
