Shocked by the case of #NoelChambers? Let me explain how other people have spent DECADES in Jamaican prisons without ever having been tried or convicted.

THREAD: #UnfitToPlead
If you are brought before Jamaican courts on a criminal charge you have the right to say if you are guilty or not guilty. You have the right and, depending on your choice, you are offered certain options.
You have to be of sound mind, however. Otherwise, you are #UnfitToPlead.

If you are unfit, you are locked away until you were lucid and stable enough to make a choice.
