Two St. Lucians among four charged for murder of Chris Blanc

Blanc went missing on December 30, 2016

Four men, two St. Lucians and two Dominicans, have been charged with murder in connection with the death of Chris Blanc from Fond Cole.

The two St. Lucians are Fimbar Mohamed Greenidge of Ravin Poison and Garie Elwin Dariah of Anse La Raye.

The two Dominicans are Ronel Desiree of Giraudel and Kimran Burke of Bath Estate.

Blanc went missing on December 30, 2016 after spending some time with friends in St. Joseph.

On January 5, 2017, his lifeless and partly decomposed body was discovered in a small precipice in the heights of St. Joseph.

The police immediately launched an investigation into what they said was a suspected homicide.

They have since concluded their investigations and the four men were arrested and charged, police PRO, Inspector Pellam Jno Baptiste said. 

No court date has been set in the matter.

    Time to bring back the death penalty and execute murders in general . I know there are applicants available for the job. Once they are convicted and sentence to death . Forget life it costs more money to support them. Again speaking openly. Not on this case as these individuals has not been tried convicted or judged by 12 individual peers

    I would like to know what Garie was charged with beca use as far as I know he wasn’t Dominica when Chris went missing. So can someone help me please. He went to St Lucia on the 27th of December 2016 and returned to Dominica on the 2nd of January 2017. Chris went missing on the 30th of December, when they found him he was already decomposing. Maybe I am lost but I do not see how he did it.

      You ever heard the expression “accessory to a crime? you do not have to be personally- or directly involved to be found guilty.

    To the Dominica police, I have nothing against solving a crime and those responsible should pay. But one of the st lucian guys was not even in Dominica the time if the incident, you have his ticket which proves it yet you charge him as well. Smh. I guess you solve these crimes by any means even framing individuals.

      January 16, 2017

      Dat the same thing I am saying. I think the police just want props for themselves by convicting a st Lucian. They know dam well he wasn’t in Dominica. GARIE ALWIN DARIAH was not in Dominica. I cannot say nothing for the rest but that’s the truth.

        January 16, 2017

        If you know nothing of law and crime you should call the CID for clarification. Just a little enlightenment for you, there are accomplices who do not even have to be present at the crime scene. There is a word called accessory before and after the fact. Now make that call and get educated.

      Do you knows of ways to be charged of crime and not be present. Please research. You are a man of the cloth?

      I am a bit confused but what was the purpose of his travel from the 27th of Dec. to the 2nd of Jan. all sound very fishy.
      it’s sad for both families having to say good bye to a son brother and friend and to have a family member accused of such a crime.

    • priest
      January 17, 2017

      All of you can sit behind a screen an make intelligent comments like ‘ accessory to crime’ without knowing the details of the matter. All you care about is someone was charged for the matter whether they are guilty or not. So you feel good that the police did their job not realizing the real killers are still out there. The police are giving the impression that they are solving crimes but are they really? Stop making yourselves look good with numbers and do your jobs truthfully. And to all the police commenting you know what I am talking about.

      No evidence but those that did the crime too like to talk and as for their friends they are walkie talkies.. so that’s why they are charged now!

  18. WHO HAVE A BACKHOE?
    January 15, 2017

    Before I comment on the matter at hand let’s clear the air on the former Nigerian oil minister because on the 4th of January 2017, PM Skerrit told us that she is in London, a free woman, has not been charged etc. But three days later I found something to suggest something different. So please open this link to find the truth.
    Now concerning the four arrestedal I will say at this time is, It’s one thing to arrest and another thing to get a conviction these days in Dominica. In fact not to long one was bought down from the US, in connection with the alleged GON E Manuel fire combing. He was arrested at the airport, charged and brought before the Court. Was he convicted? Ask the braying donkey

      Read the link. The lady has not been charged, moneis in local banks in Nigeria in her name were seized . On the CBS show it was Lennox who stated that the lady had a diplomatic passport and no evidence was offered by Lennox or CBS to show that this lady was still in possession of a Dominican diplomatic passport.

  19. The Truth Be Told
    January 15, 2017

    Two St. Lucians and two D/cans murdered him. Why men?
    St. Lucians, you came to D/ca to murder our national? Again why?
    Why did you not stay in your country? Why did you have to come to D/ca, to be there at all? For what reason?
    His lifeless decomposed body? Was he not the one who was found headless?
    This is such a sad ending for him. What did he do to you men to deserve this?
    I hope those four men remain incarcerated. No bail for them. A hearing, yes which they are entitled to but do not release them on bail whatsoever.
    They, four men, have willfully murdered one man. Four against one. I visualize he did not stand a chance in getting away from them. He may have begged them for mercy and they did not grant it.
    You four men have brought much grief to his family and also to other nationals.
    My condolence to Blanc’s family. Keep strong and in the Lord.
    God is love. Know that He sees your grief and is saddened by what was done to a member of your family.

    ” like the flies are attracted to the light , they buzz…whence cometh the morning the flies are littered on the floor all dead”

    The flies will all drop One By One, time is the only constant for dealing with evils…simply put “TIME WILL TELL”

    Make no mistake some greedy money-hungry lawyer will run come to the defense of such barbarians, but as I said before Time will tell . The Light represent Greed and Love of Money and Bling which attracts the flies, but one thing is certain all that is attracted toward this light will find their place on the floor come sunrise.

    Godspeed

        Yes, but you can still be detained and refused bail before a hearing to determine whether you are guilty or not, People on remand are in that category, locked up before a verdict is delivered. locked up, especially if their is a flight risk or interference with potential witnesses.
