Jasmine Hartin admits negligent manslaughter of Henry Jemmott by accidentally discharging his firearm
The Canadian socialite and former partner of the son of billionaire and Conservative party grandee Lord Michael Ashcroft has pleaded guilty in a court in Belize to the negligent manslaughter of a police officer.
Jasmine Hartin, 34, who shot and killed police superintendent Henry Jemmott in May 2021 in what she has described as an accidental discharge from Jemmott’s firearm, entered a tearful plea at the nation’s supreme court in Belize City on Tuesday afternoon before the start of a scheduled trial.
