A second man has now been charged in relation to the killing of Marvlyn Robinson.
Bernie Samuel of Gutter Village was charged with murder when he appeared in a Roseau court on Thursday morning.
The preliminary inquiry into the matter is set for April 9, 2013.
He did not enter a plea because the offense is an indictable one.
Samuel was remanded in custody.
He was arrested on Wednesday.
Robinson died from numerous stab wounds inflicted on various parts of her body at her Giraudel residence in the wee hours of November 3.
what ever all u say.. bernie is my friend.. i am still doubting that bernie would do such a thing .. it is said that one shall not trust no man! anybody can do anything .. but for those of u wishing that he will rot and hanged in jail.. it could happen to any one of u.. remember i said that. i still cannot belive my dawg is sitting at stockfarm. bernie. i will continue to say a prayer.
you backing a murder he should be killed for murdering my mother and i hope God hears my prays and gives this man that he deserves for killing my mother in her own home.She wouldn’t hurt nobody so why on earth somebody would want to hurt her,trust me she will never be forgotten if it wasn’t for her i wouldn’t be where i am today. I LOVE U MOM RIP
Well i can say Mrs. Robinsion had a wonderful send off today… as much as it heart my heart that she was killed by some young guys who she was trying to help change there life i can say she is resting in peace. I pray that she hunt all you in jail and all you would never be able to sleep because all you too dam evil.
All of all u will run ur mouth wii. I tired of all u, not because we know bernie and his family. A case must be called and thats all, when it is called we will all know the details. And to the person living overs is not no good people that living gutter. Stop judge it could be any of u children or family.
THAT YOUR MAN IS NOT FROM GUTTER
All you really fast for true wii. weh boy. wait for the case to call nuh all you already judging Bernie.
Right now, no one has been convicted of any crimes so I don’t get why people on DNO are playing police, lawyer, and judge… Let the courts do what they were appointed for… It’s sad.. These are all my friends and I wish the best for them and all the families involved, including that of Mervlyn Robinson, R.I.P.

They were arrested and charged “for murder”. Even though the case has not yet been called, they inflicted stab wombs and murdered her. Is this not enough to know that they are guilty? You think that they will be acquitted? I doubt this very much. I hope they will not be released on bail. They do not deserve to walk the streets. It was not about a murder where they had a quarrel and then the wounds were inflicted which caused her death. They went to her home while she was sleeping. This is a heinous crime. The more I write about this, the more I become angry knowing that Marvlyn died at the hands of those wicked young men. They, too, should have been sleeping in their beds. It is as if Satan was with them, leading them and prompting them to injure and kill her. They can’t put the blame on him. The choice was theirs. If there is no hanging, I hope they rot in prison for the rest of their lives.
people people…IT appears to be a trend with some of you guys here.
Dont you guys learn? Look just de other day someone else was arrested as a SUSPECT for murder. It turned out that he was the worng guy so they let him go. yOU GUYS SO MANY BAD THINGS TO SAY ABOUT THE GUY WITHOUT EVEN FINDING OUT IF THERE WAS ANY EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT HIS GUILT. They released him as they determined HE WAS not part of the crime.
Look now the same things you guys saying. I dont know if is foolish some of you people foolish or something.
STUPID PEOPLE police sometimes arrests persons they suspect may have committed a crime that does not mean they actually committed that crime. They need need probable cause to arrest someone it doesn’t have to be any proof so stop acting like you have no common sense at all.
I must say some of you really sound dumb and Ignorant
he wrote a confession eno… 8 pages so he confess guilty…
He is an accomplice. Look up the word ‘accomplice’. He is guilty of a crime. If you encourage someone, if you drove the person to the area knowing that a crime will be committed and if you are with them at the time of the crime, you are downright guilty of the crime, be it a less demeanor. Imprisonment for you. I do not have to be a lawyer to know this, just basic common sense.
the one they let go have a case coming but not that , that’s why they thought of him.
wen u see u know somebody an u not expecting d person to do such it does hurt u bad all now i jus cold
yes sah fada
yes sah boi…. i feeling funny eh…. iw wrok woth d guy i jus cah believe that
wat u feeling for?
Bad company corrupts. He should have known to run away from trouble and not encourage Clarence to do what he did. They thought they would not get caught. There is a God above and Marvlyn had time to identify him and to inform her family and friend about it. Otherwise, they could have well escaped and probably no one would know what the primary perpetrator did along with his accomplice. Let them pay the price of their evil actions.
Praise be to God! He ordains all to be that they would be caught.
It is sad that Marvlyn lost her life in such a manner. May she rest in peace. Amen!
Had he not been there, he would not have been accused or considered a suspect. Don’t be quick to judge because the majority of you on here knows him or his family, would the comment be the same had it been your family member? Some Dominicans are too hypocritical. Marvlyn was killed in her home by these two animals. I say hang them and set examples for the others, criminals in Dominica get away with too much.
i hope u dont get ever get in trouble
They may not have said anything if it were their family. They would be extremely sad. It would be expected that they would say anything. This is no reason to criticize those who comment and provide their opinion. They are entitled to do so.
Another simple–looking expression, his seems even more innocent and childish than the Clarence Lewis, it is so had for me to imagine murder on the minds of those young men.
O dear God, what happened on that night Marvlyn Robinson was killed? Please tell it to us for peace sake! And the quicker You do so the sooner the rest of us will have peace of mind. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen!
Satan finds some mischief for idle hands to do. Idleness is the devil’s playground. This is a typical example. I hope they receive spiritual counseling in prison that, hopefully, they may be converted and eventually saved. They will have to do much penance and sacrifice with a humble and contrite heart as a means of appeasing God who does not deceive and cannnot be deceived. For their sake I hope they change their ungodliness hearts to godliness for their mortal and spiritual benefit.
you in Da or what just look at the kill in there must of them is to stop something from happening the lady had a case on these boys coming up. fire is two places to kill for what some they doing. look out DA people you pointing at the wrong picture the young men shock you. well well there is always a saying beware of bad company.
who and where that buy what all you take from that lady house ( her family want to know) remember you had alot of friends. Some of them now doing like the Bible Verses
Please,please as a son of the soul,living in the diaper i would like to know who is that young man.as a young man living in gutter village in the 70, 80 and middle 90 all we did was play foot ball and cricket in the street, and I remember going to the river. What I can say is that Samuel is not one of the original guy he must be an inported one that is spoiling the village name. Can some body tell me would is his family in gutter village. I am away but I still love my village a proud son of gutter village. I would like to big up all the people of gutter village stay strong, there is still good people living and working in gutter village. In ending I must say that we had a coach in London with the dominica athletics team so there is still good in my village.
The situation is wherever they reside in Dominica, some of those young men are bad people. What I ask is what happened to Dominica that some of them have turned to crimes/murders? I have said it before it is due to godlessness and idleness. They want to live off the avails of people’s property by stealing what which does not belong to them and without working for what they want. They have brought it upon themselves. They only have themselves to blame with the free mind and will which God gave them.
if guilty i would give him more jail time because he living further had more time to change his mine
Imagine how far they lived and they found themselves all the way in Giraudel. You are correct, this should also be taken into consideration when their cases are called and they are sentenced for they will be sentenced unless they die in jail prior to their cases being called.
Hold on ma boy know deep down u aint do this most likely wrong place, wrong friend, wrong time. N being da soldier u are dem want to keep a good man down ur true friends are prayn 4 da best outcome for u. I know yall will hate but i donot care i know bernie and he couldnot hurt a fly far less a nice old lady…………………… so wish him whateva cu want but its only gonna come right bac at u..,..,…
i am in total shock now! i cannot believe that bernie was involved in this! your mom, sister and little brother must be devastated! boy what the lady do all you like that??
Note how they can put their family to shame and cause them distress. Of course, their families must be hurting at what they have done. These two must have been disobedient and stubborn children and also as young adults. In fact all those who commit crimes/murders are disobedient and stubborn people. For one, they are non-law abiding people. They have no regard for others.
Here you guys go again leveling accusations.
remember the other guy that they released after all of you hacked on him. trust me Bernie Innocent
Allu not easy to do de lady that boy
This is what is so shocking, what they did to her. I visualize how fearful she was and much she suffered. She wanted to live!
They are arrogant, brazen and wicked of heart. I bet that Dominican residents and those in the rest of the world are anxiously waiting to see the commencement of this case and the results.
and you are who again? Stop acting like you’re ‘in the know’. You know nothing!
and wat u know
thats true burnie not in dat
This time, we will do the same, hack on him. Let us see what happens. It appears that the police got their man. He may be the correct one.
why r we so quick to judge. A man is not guilty until proven by a court of law.he will have his day in court and then and only then we can judge him, not by the rhetoric tht are going around from those who seek to judge prematurely.
Wacks boy there is no smoke without fire. The fact that he has been charged means that the police think that they have enough on him.
Guess who this is KR. I did enjoy my trip
What are you stating? It is known that Clarence murdered her. We would like to hear their testimony and the verdict.
Wait awhile… HOW DNO GET THAT PICTURE???????????
awa wi bernie u suprise me alot man…u look so innocent man..come on… hve to pay for it wi.. sorry
u not sure lets not judge people
what??!! Bernie but what u put urself in dere nuh boyyyy??!!!!
I Loved you so much, u were the first man i actually fell inlove with and you go and do this….. sigh, Lord Help him..i will pray for u
well u have good taste. pleaes
Some of you make me laugh. He appeared innocent then. Or shall I say, “A thief is never a thief until caught.”
lol…you have very poor judgement
wat do u mean by poor judgement??? smh!!1
Do you not know that those who commit crimes do not really look different from those who do not commit crimes. As the saying, “You could have fooled me.” They are as kind, loving, gentle and even helpful as ever; even soft spoken. This is how those who know them are deceived. Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
wait wait somebody please tell me is that( shaber)the nice young man that was working on the kubuli truck i really want to kno if am seeing right he was such a nice person he was always friendly with people u mean is he that there
they to dam lazy just want to get rich overnight watch your soap dont let it fall then you will know what hard work is go to jail dont pay $200 if and when you pass GO
bernie.. u let me down .. as a real positive soldier.. always consious.. u let me down fada.. trust me .. u put shame into the nation.. u were well known. i been through fustration before.. but damn.. i hope u ask the Fatherfor forgiveness every minite of the day.. and pray hard my boy.
When things like this take place we are always quick to give comments b4 the fax are set before us whatever happen to innocent untill bproven guilty. I will not sit here and bash u Bernie neither will I rejoice or lead u 2 believe u did the right thing I will be the first to condem u but first I will wait for da facts of this case I am so sorry to the family who have lost a mother aunt sister grandmom friend confident. The other family has lost a future gracefully accept ur punishment bernie hopefully the family will 4give u for whatever part u played in da tragic death of their lost one.
Why don’t all you witnesses who saw Bernie do it, judges, jurors, and executioners who abuse DNO and pass sentence, even before proof by the court, shut up and wait for a conviction!!!
yes i real talk wii i do understand them ner on dno
bernie i cannot belive is u that do that bernie i used to look up to u as my big brother bernie u broke my hearttt ……..
ppl are already sayin what they expect n dnt expect , what happenend to innocent until found guiltyall made so much harsh comments for the other guy whom the police caught and then some of yall had to apologize for the comments made ,, dominicans to fast to critisize,, where it comes to her family. accept my sympathy
I am confused, where did this suspect appear from, please correct me if I am wrong. Didn’t Mrs Robertson say who stabbed her before she passed away.What was this man’s role in the murderer of this poor lady.
No doubt, an accomplice. Think and use your intelligence.
wat is wrong with the young ppl of D/A nah i just cant understand wat the hell is going on with young ppl now a days go school n educate ur self in steed u go n do that non sense poor D/A future
the word is instead.. u go school and learn u online doing like other dominicans just dr to talk talk talk INSTEED LOL
I with u on that the-brown-bottle some of these ppl leaving comment and my god they still cannot express themselves correctly..check this WE-WI INSTEAD-INSTEED LOL IF U CANT SPELL STAY U BUTT OF THE PPL THEM COMMENTS.
Boy Bernie you really disappoint me, i never thought you’d find yourself in such a situation.I no that Marvlyn’s family, friends, the country and the diaspora has lost a patriotic Dominican and one who always looked forward to the independence celebration…… Why did you all had to kill her so brutally? Bernie you? ah ah ah Lord help us parents with our young boy’s and girl’s……R.I.P Marvlyn!
When all u dont know the story all u will say anything. It can happen to any of us . Ur son, brother, cousin. Bernie that is not u and i know that, we behind u one hundred percent and we praying for u.
What hurts more is when u know these people who do such things. But I hate the act ! Afterall !!! People need to think twice!! That’s sad!!
he resembles the guy that was released Mist
aken i dentity?????
mister nuh…. hmmmm.. well sa.. they really say never judge a book by it’s cover and is true. Cuz i never saw him to be that kind of person. I came in contact with him all the time, he used to work kubuli..tsk tsk tsk well sa
bernie???? is always the quiet ones that does surprise u.. omg man.. whatever possessed u to do this hellish crime.. smh… ur sis and mum must be devasted!! and u have a little BROTHER looking up to you.. shame on u bernie.. i’m disappointed.
Again, he has only been charged. Not convicted. Can we please wait to see what happens as both individuals go through the justice system?
don’t be so quick to judge. Titus Williams was arrested for conspiracy to murder in the same case and later was released since there was no case againt him.
Were you there?? Did you see him do it?? Why don’t you shut up and wait for the verdict!!!
when stuff like dis happens,dats when all de most ridiculars comments are out. eg. wat boy. so & so. u dat do dat? we went to school together, he was so quiet. nice handsome boy. and the list goes on.”HYPOCRITES” wat is wrong with the saying?”ONLY KNIFE DAT KNO’S WAT IS IN THE HEART OF PUMPKIN”.smdh
uhhh there is nothing hypocrite about these comments… what would be hypocrite is..’he was always my friend, we always use to hang out together” when it truth u never did hang out with him and he hated his guts… “but he was quiet’ means that the person knew him… and “he was quiet” and they never expected him to do it…. nothing hypocrite about that…
i know this is ur opinion, james bond,,, but its also a rebuttal to other ppl opinion,,,,,, so i think u should comment on the point, and let ppl state their words,,,,,, that way we will have a great dno,,,,,,
Like!!
No need to point fimgers we all fall short sometimes. Our young people need to stay of that powder they pushing up their nose. Cause it changes them to criminals.
Don’t you find that he has a slight resemblance to the guy who was released?
That’s true wee !!!! Yes papa,,,
He certainly do resembles the one released. Could that have been a mistake in identify? I wonder which one is really the culprit.
Must be his twin?
You do the crime……..you pay the time.
wicked souls
I cannot believe I went to school with these fellas. SMH
the cause of death doesnt even make sence .did they even had authopsy .my father passed last year and they say cause of death was lung cancer,kidney failure,hernia,heart failure and something else i cannot remember.r.i.p.miss robinson may your blood be on your killers shoulder for life
To bad for him so sad for lady family
Young good looking boys we, them man should be busy looking for those beautiful girls in Dca they have foriegners taking our girls whilst they committing murder to go prison…smdh.
you are soo right…while us as women sit and bust our behinds in school to get a nice husband to settle wid we have to go nd cross borders to get worthy husbands because all our men are sitting, either behind bars or on the blocks selling dope to each other…Man up guys
I sincerely hope you graduate from student to informed, because you are making some real sad and ignorant comments.To think you are a student i.e Secondary-tertiary level and even a pupil i.e primary level thinks more intelligently and can articulate much better than you, I can truly see why our men would ignore you! Take a breather you are out of your element. A STUDENT would have known that throughout the Caribbean women have the same complaints yet move to the opposing islands and find great relationships. I’m sorry for this generation of head bangers like you. Yesterday you were mad that people who could barely read and write were in the courts of all places,amongst young college grads and lawyers, today you come with this. Get hold of book and leave DNO alone before you implode!
Stop talking nonsense @student. a lot of women fall these gangstars thats why a lot of young boys look up to them instead of looking up to the sports men and women in Dominica. Men will always go into things that makes them get a lot of girls. Right now its the gangstar life. thats the life that attracts the women right now. Do you see a guy having plenty young girls after him because he is a national footballer or basketballer? NO!

There are a lot of good men in Dominica but the women are attracted to the wrong set of guys. Its not men fault that you would choose a womaniser knowing he have 4 women and then complain about not being number 1. if you wanted to be number 1 you would go after a single guy.
Some women does make money fool them that’s why they crossing borders because to stay with a hard working Dominican and build something too hard since it taking too long. But the secret is the foreigners rarely look at them seriously…
Bernie was a good student! he was very well educated..thanks to him i passed trigonometry at school and he helped me do my SBA…HE Not a stupid person..so shut ur mouth if u have nothing good to say!
My boy how did you get yourself involved in such a crime???
Now you have to spend time in prison and maybe even visit the gallows …………… Shame on you my boy …….. real disappointed.
my brothe you? awa wi pardner.
Bernie boi u break my heart! I never expected to see your face dere. Boy, u were so irie in school how u get yourself into dat? Sorry to say but u should be punished severely for your crimes.
Were you there?? Did you see Bernie do it?? Why don’t you shut up and wait for the verdict/conviction!!!!
Oh Lord, Bless us. Help our children wi bondie, parents take back control.
Send them to the gallows.
Need to make a few examples. Seriously. Things have gone overboard.(Men in maternity ward).Liars committing crime not serving time.
