The OECS Court of Appeal has ordered the immediate release of Timothy Jackman, who was convicted in 2020 for the manslaughter of his transgender partner, Angel Joseph, in 2018.

Jackman, initially sentenced to 11 years and nine months, successfully appealed after his attorney, Wendel Alexander, argued that the sentencing judge made a “mathematical error” in calculating his term.

He was briefly freed in July last year but was rearrested after prison authorities claimed his release was premature.
