A gang member who tried to shoot a rival dead in broad daylight has been found guilty by a jury.Noet Barnett, who has the mental age of a nine or ten year old according to a psychologist, now faces a lengthy jail sentence.The 25-year-old attacked Jeremiah Dill, 28, in a drive-by shooting on Parson's Road, Pembroke on October 4 2010. Mr Dill suffered multiple but non life-threatening wounds.The trial began on November 28, with Barnett accused of attempted murder and using a firearm to commit that crime. He was further charged with handling the gun in question between the date of the shooting and the date police found it on December 22. He was found guilty this afternoon of all three charges.The key prosecution witness was a woman who witnessed the shooting. She told the jury she'd known Barnett since schooldays and recognised him as the gunman.The witness, who cannot be identified due to a reporting restriction, said she'd seen Barnett earlier that day wearing the same dark clothes and helmet and riding the same white cycle as during the shooting. The visor was up earlier in the day.The woman said although the visor was down when the shooting happened, she recognised Barnett by his mouth, as he has "small dark smoker's lips".Victim Mr Dill told the jury the gunman uttered the words "what happened pussy?" before opening fire, shooting him once in each thigh and once in his buttocks as he ran away. He said he could not see his attacker's face due to the dark visor he wore. He recalled how he threw his helmet at the gunman and tried to kick him off his bike.He agreed with defence lawyer Victoria Pearman that Barnett has a stutter, and said he did not hear a stutter when the gunman spoke.Mr Dill explained that he grew up with Barnett in Spanish Point, Pembroke. Barnett is godfather to his young daughter and was in a relationship with his sister, Tookie Binns, at the time of the shooting.According to prosecutors, the defendant committed the crime against his former friend due to them being on opposite sides of the ongoing feud between the 42 and Parkside gangs.Police gang expert Alexander Rollin named Barnett as a member of 42 and Mr Dill as a member of Parkside. He said Barnett has a tattoo on his arm reading 4 Life 42 in reference to his affiliation.The jury watched videos of Barnett's interviews with police. He told detectives he loved Mr Dill and his family but Mr Dill had not spoken to him since "the war" began between the gangs. He also told them he lost three cousins to the gang war; Kumi Harford, Perry Puckerin and Shane Minors, who he believes were killed by Parkside. Although he insisted he had "no beef at all" with Jeremiah Dill, police and prosecutors believe he carried out the shooting to avenge the deaths of his cousins.Barnett claimed he was travelling by bus to a job interview at the Southampton Princess hotel at the time of the shooting. However, prosecutors later called evidence from staff at the hotel showing he was lying, as his interview was actually on September 28, six days before the crime. Phone records also contradicted his accounts of calls to and from the hotel to arrange the interview.The jury went on to hear how the gun used to shoot Mr Dill was found in bushes on East Gate Lane, Pembroke on December 22 2010, more than eleven weeks after the attack. A ballistics expert linked the weapon, a Rexio RJ Serie .38 Special revolver, to the shooting of Mr Dill and three other shootings in Bermuda.Police witnesses told how a man named Kofi Dill and a woman named Thayja Simons were arrested over the discovery of the firearm, in addition to Barnett. Kofi Dill was later charged and pleaded guilty.Barnett's DNA was found on the gun, along with that of Kofi Dill and Thayja Simons. That was one of the pieces of evidence cited by prosecutors in respect of the charge that Barnett handled the gun between the date of the shooting and the date it was found.The defence dismissed the DNA evidence, from US expert Candy Zuleger, as unreliable. They called British DNA expert Michael Appleby, who raised concerns the DNA may have been incomplete or contaminated. However, prosecutor Carrington Mahoney cast doubt on Mr Appleby's expertise and credibility as a witness.The jury also watched a cell phone video found by police when they raided Kofi Dill's home on the date the revolver used in the shooting was found. The footage showed Barnett, Kofi Dill, Jerome "Fire" Dublin, Julian Washington and Kamie Dublin fooling around with what appeared to be a semi-automatic pistol.The footage was filmed on October 28, two-and-a-half weeks after Barnett committed the shooting using a different gun. All the men, except Kamie Dublin, were identified by Sgt Rollin as members of the 42 gang. He identified sections of the video where Kofi Dill performed a rap containing death threats towards Parkside.Barnett made shooting actions with the gun and also made shooting noises. He could be heard joining in the chorus of Kofi Dill's threatening rap.Defence lawyer Victoria Pearman called evidence from psychologist Guy Fowle, who said Barnett has a "very low" IQ of 63. He described him as having the mental age of a nine or ten year old and being mildly retarded.Dr Fowle suggested Barnett, who cannot read and did not finish school, may have trouble understanding times and dates.He raised the prospect that he may have been "confused" about time in relation to his job interview rather than deliberately lying to the police about his whereabouts on the morning of the shooting.However, he later agreed with prosecutor Rory Field that nine and ten year olds are just as capable of lying as adults, and that criminals do not have to be intelligent people.Barnett was remanded into custody to be sentenced later.
