Virginia Lewis Robinson appeared in the Grand Court on June 27, 2025, to face allegations of wounding at Salty’s Bar. She pleaded not guilty to the charges. Her bail was extended to September 2025, when a jury trial is anticipated to take place.
Background
Regarding count 1, Lewis-Robinson was charged under section 203 of the Penal Code. This states:
Wounding or causing grievous bodily harm
203. A person who, unlawfully and maliciously, by any means, wounds or causes grievous bodily harm to a person with intent to do grievous bodily harm to any person or with intent to resist or prevent the lawful apprehension or detainer of any person, commits an offence and is liable on conviction to imprisonment for life.
It is alleged that, on October 30, 2024, at Salty’s Restaurant, Lewis Robinson unlawfully and maliciously wounded Sharon Bailey with the intent to do her previous bodily harm.
Concerning count 2, Lewis-Robinson was charged under section 204 of the Penal Code. This states:
Wounding or causing grievous bodily harm
204. A person who unlawfully and maliciously wounds or inflicts any grievous bodily harm upon any other person, either with or without any weapon or instrument, commits an offence and is liable on conviction to imprisonment for seven years.
This charge is based on the same facts mentioned above.
Next steps
Lewis-Robinson’s jury trial is expected to occur on September 29, 2025. Her bail was extended until then on the same bail conditions as stated in the Summary Court: not to go within 100 yards of any airport or seaport, not to contact (directly or indirectly) the complainant, and maintain residence at the address provided to the court. Regarding these conditions, her lawyer indicated that she will seek to vary the bail conditions to travel to Jamaica to enrol her child at school.
