One of several Americans recently charged with having ammunition in Turks and Caicos is expected to go home after a court issued a suspended sentence and fined him $2,000. Ryan Tyler Watson of Oklahoma pleaded guilty last month to possessing four rounds of ammunition, a spokesperson for the government of Turks and Caicos said. He had been released on bail and ordered to stay on the islands while awaiting this sentence. On Friday, Watson received a 13-week suspended sentence and a $2,000 fine – $500 per bullet, a spokesperson for the Turks and Caicos Islands Supreme Court told CNN on Friday. Watson will not need to serve the 13-week sentence “as long as he doesn’t commit any crimes and keeps the peace in the TCI within 9 months,” the court spokesperson said. Watson “is now allowed to leave … as he’s now cleared with the justice in the TCI.” Watson is expected to return to Oklahoma City by Friday night, according to Jonathan Franks, a spokesperson for Bring Our Families Home. “We will make payment shortly, depart TCI and anticipate being home in OKC tonight,” Franks posted on X from the courthouse.
