Oklahoma Man Avoids Prison for Ammo in Turks and Caicos

An American, Ryan Watson, was given a suspended sentence of 13 weeks and a $2,000 fine in Turks and Caicos for possessing four rounds of ammunition in his carry-on bag. Watson, who had been out on bail, can now return to the U.S. The case, along with similar ones involving other Americans, has led to changes in the islands' firearms laws, allowing judges more discretion in sentencing.
