Alpha Alexander, Lian Connie denied bail for attempted murder

Two men charged with attempted murder, grievous bodily harm, robbery and possession of firearm were denied bail this morning.

Alpha Alexander of Goodwill and Lian Connie of Morne Rachette appeared before Magistrate Candia George at the Roseau Magistrate Court Tuesday morning when the four charges were read to them.

According to the facts of the case, the charges stem from an episode which occurred in Roseau on May 20 between the complainant Margarvin Peters and the suspects.
“In the interest of the accused safety and the safety of the public by extension they should be held without bail,” the police prosecutor said in objecting to the bail of the gentlemen.

Lawyer Zena Dyer represented the defendants at court. “The whole issue of the seriousness of the offense falls when there is no evidence,” Dyer told the court as she made a failed application for the bail of the gentlemen.

The trial is carded for September 16.

Magistrate George also requested that police make a disclosure of its evidence to the lawyer’s office before July 31.

Nurse Dalrymple still waiting on justice for the killing of her son. The young man from fond cole tht was brutally mudered by is niece’s boyfriend, they still waiting for justice cuz right now d man out on the road. The 2 brothers from Grandbay, their killer is outside. So is not one set tht does do, DA ppl to bias and one sided.

    Sadly, we are not addressing the root of the issue. Locking up Alpha is not solving the problem. How many times has he been locked up, when he comes out he does the same thing. It shows that the system is not working.

    Prison is a very dangerous and dreadful place to be. The longer one stays behind bars, he becomes like an animal, a beast, his heart becomes as hard as stone.

    Alpha and his colleagues need deep rehabilitation and therapy. They need strong intervention programmes, unfortunately, we do not have this system set up.

    All that is good, criminals must pay for their crimes, but pray tell when will the criminals responsible for the fire at Mr. Emanuel’s house be brought to justice or will they ever??? Unless that happens law enforcement you will have no credibility, no matter how poor and powerless criminals you bring to justice. Equal Justice under the law, that is not the case in Dominica.

      May 25, 2011

      be careful what you wish for. three strikes does not work. it just drains the government of all its money. if you think dominica cant afford good roads and health care now just wait and see what would happen if there is three strikes. intervention and a way for young men to make money is the only way to decrease crime

      • The truth
        May 25, 2011

        did you only read one half of my comment? i did say capital punishment too. and you can cry for jobs but there are jobs. i come to dominica for two weeks now and again and get work everytime. thing is, these guys dont want the kind of money that i will work for. they want the rich fast scheme. even if you give them jobs they do not want it, and the ones that can pay them the kind of money they want, they are not qualified for because they do not like to learn. so there you go. further more, right now, the only place with frequent jobs is china and places like asia. with the fact that dominicans hate muslims so much, i do not anticipate them going to malaysia for work, nor singapore. china? bit far. but then again, they hate the chinese in their country so… i guess its look for jobs in dca or nothing

          See if they could do that in an Islamic country. My people man made laws are foolish and inconsistent. Wake up Dominicans, embrace Islam, let’s have Islamic law in the land :-D Criminals will sh*t in their pants.
