Salisbury woman bailed after allegedly attempting to “disfigure” woman

A young woman from Salisbury was granted $20,000 bail and urged to stay away from a female whom she allegedly “injured badly” last week in her community.

Michelle Jno-Charles, according to the charge read before Magistrate Candia George last week, caused grievous bodily harm to Kerna Adams with intent to disfigure her on November 1, 2010.

Her preliminary inquiry has been set for March 29, 2011 and disclosure was ordered to be made by January 31, 2011.

“Keep your distance from Kerna Adams,” the magistrate told Jno-Charles.

The complainant’s lawyer Zena Dyer further asked the court to prohibit Jno-Charles from venturing unto a track which is situated in the vicinity of the complainant’s home. Jno-Charles told the court that she did not use “pass in any track” in the complainant’s yard.

Dyer said that her client had been “injured badly” and could not make it to court at the hearing.

Jno-Charles was represented by David Bruney.

    WAT COULD HAVE CAUSED SUCH BEHAVIOR FROM A GROWN WOMAN?
    I DON’T KNOW WHAT CAUSED IT SO I WILL WAIT TO HEAR THE NEWS

    The fact of it all in my opinion, it’s a child that the Michelle attacked. Whether the child provoked her, I do believe the child has parents and there is also the law, if the parents refuse to handle the situation. There is no reason why someone should attack another in this manner. Michelle did not attack another grown woman, she attacked a minor. She needs to act her age and not her shoe size. I do hope the courts punish her for her actions and she learn a great deal from it all.

    the complaint may be a child but remember there is something call provokation we do not know the details of the story so just chill…………………………..and Hon Hector John has nothing to do with that can he be everywhere at the same time? …………………..no………………yes he is the parl rep but this problem has been going on from at least two years back.They need to stop that nonsense.

  12. Get off the politics
    November 9, 2010

    Why does it always have to come down to politics. Mr John ain’t got nothing to do with that. I am not for UWP but you have to give credit where credit is due. Everything that happen don’t have to be politics. Shait man. We Dominicans need to get off the politics sometimes.

    u know sometimes we like to take matters into our own hand until it is to late but sometimes we act without even knowing what we do and again some women deserve the biting espically if that man dont belong to them and again its not the woman we have to fight is the man who lead the women into the act.how can u say u there with me and still be up and down the damn place with other women it hurts and thats y we act without thinking

    I am at a lost here! is this a civil matter or a criminal matter? was the police involved in this, what is this bail about? Toujours wed, what does Hector John have to do with bringing this to the public? are you from salisbury? do you know whether or not he has tried to mediate in the matter between the women?

  21. Lizavier4Jesus

    But what was the reason for that gruesome attack? Why the intent to disfigure the victim? Those of us who live abroad would like to have these information from the news report.

    @toujours wed what does hector have to do with that?? Yes he can address the matter but its a neigbourhood thing thats going on for years since before Hector was elected.

    Yes Hector is the Parl Rep but dd he cause them to fight? NO he did not these young women are responsible for their actions and should act like adults and young ladies. No matter who the representative was for that area this disaster would still happen.

    Hector John these are your constituents.

    Why the silence? Why haven’t you addressed the matter?

    I saw the fb pics of the young lady who has been ‘disfigured’ and I must say she is lucky to be alive.

    For those young girls to try make a living is fight they fighting. Salisbury is known for beautiful people and hard working community oriented individuals.

    It’s a pity. Whatever provoked the attacked this was unnecessary.
