The messenger who made headlines after taking off with RD$5.4 million that he should have deposited in the bank for his employers, received a five-year sentence, but will only spend one and a half years in jail. He will be out on conditional release for the remaining three and a half years of the term. Judge Elka Reyes said that the former messenger, Carlos Garcia Rojas, had reached an agreement with his former employer, Edward Francisco Almonte Tavares of the engineering company, Constructora Almonte Tavares. Garcia agreed to not bear weapons and not visit the company premises and to attend educational talks by the judge in charge of implementing the sentence, as reported in El Dia.
