US social media star Jayda Cheaves aka Jayda Wayda and George Wright, a member of her entourage, have been convicted of illegal possession of firearm and ammunition.

They were about to depart the Sangster Airport aboard a private jet Monday when the weapons were found.

The pair appeared in the Western Regional Gun Court earlier today where they were fined JM $500,000 (US $3,367) or 12 months imprisonment for illegal possession of a firearm and $300,000 (US $2,020) or 12 months imprisonment for illegal possession of ammunition.

She reportedly left the island today.
