She is not operating as herself – Mother of Sarah Lyn Augustine speaks

Sarah Lyn Augustine and her mom Lena Augustine

Lena Augustine, the mother of Sarah Lyn Augustine, is convinced that her daughter has had a breakdown and that “she is not operating as herself.”

She was reacting to news, broken by Dominica News Online, that the younger Augustine, who has admitted to killing her two children, wanted to go back to court to “tell her side of the story.”

“I am not running away from justice,” Augustine told DNO. “But no one will let me talk. I don’t want to be quiet. They have kept me quiet for too long.”

In an interview with Dominica Source, the elder Augustine said days ago she began to realize something was not right with her daughter because in conversations she began noticing some differences. “She referred to herself as a second party, as Sarah Carter, who said that she was going to see to it that Sarah Lyn Augustine, the person who did this, would be brought to justice and that the children needed justice,” she revealed.

She said she was taken by surprise when her daughter referred to herself as Sarah Carter. “We have a close relationship where we always end up telling each other how much we love each other….then she said ‘mom I know you love me, that’s one thing I am sure about’ and then in the same conversation she just switched and then she referred to herself as Sarah Carter….I was a bit shocked,” Lena Augustine said.

She went on to say that by then Sarah’s manner of speech was becoming new to her. “And of course as a mother I knew long before that…I knew something was coming up because she wasn’t sleeping, palpitating and talking real fast,” the mother stated. “I could tell the change in her tone that she has taken a rapid speed for the worst.”

“Yes, she got a breakdown and is definitely not operating as herself,” she concluded. “She hasn’t slept and when she hasn’t slept she snaps…”

When asked by Dominica Source whether she believed Sarah should be in prison as many people think, Augustine said everyone is entitled to their own opinion. “Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I think if I were in their place I too would probably have an opinion. I do not judge anyone, I am not angry with anyone for their opinions but as a mother I know my responsibilities,” she said. “I love my daughter. She is mine when she is good, when she is bad, when she is up, when she is down. She is my precious princess. I cannot say much on people’s view.”

Sarah Lyn Augustine was charged on September 28, 2010 for the murder of her two children, five-year-old Rachael Vigilant and two-month-old Sophia Vigilant. The incident, which shocked the nation, took place at their Mahaut home in the wee hours of September 16, 2010. Augustine is alleged to have stabbed Rachel 45 times and Sophia 31 times.

Earlier this year, Director of Public Prosecution Gene Pestaina, decided to discontinue the murder case against Augustine. He said his decision was based on a psychiatrist’s report which said she was “mentally fit to plead and answer the charges against her” but also said she was “diagnosed as suffering with Postpartum Depression, a clinical illness characterized by a major depressive episode”.

He also said his decision was based on the fact that Canadian authorities agreed to provide necessary psychiatric facilities for Augustine.

    I can understand that Sarah Lyn Augustine was pressured by her family and she felt driven to kill her kids but however, she has come to reality right now about what she has done but shows no remorse for her actions when she was interviewed. :(

    I heard her on Mat (Hit Seat)and she really sounding confused, like she is in her own world, like she is trying so much to justify her crime that is more focused on making people feel sorry for her.

    September 2, 2012

    You guys who think that this woman should be in jail have no idea of the justice system. Any one who kills, is not in their right frame of mind. This woman did not have an abortion and she did raise a previous child for 5 yrs. and did a fantastic job. Do you really think jail is the answer? . No. I am Dominican and Canadian, I have paid substantial taxes in both countries and it is ok if my tax money goes to help this woman. Just two years ago a cardiologist in Montreal killed his two sons because his wife was living him for her personal trainer. The doctor received no jail time . He was found not criminally responsible. I think he was suffering from what we call depression. This things happen everywhere . Leave serah alone.

    As a nurse and a relative to Ms Augustine who I have not seen for a while i can say based on what her mother said she is not demonized but it’s clear that she is not only suffering from depression but it seems that she might also have multiple personality disorder. In people with this disorder there are different names that will come up and when she talks about them trying to shut her up it does not necessarily mean her family but these other personalities. When the real Sarah Lynn surfaces she wants to speak the truth but the other personality that may have created the crime prevents her from doing that. So pray for her instead of judging her. She is going through a battle in her mind WHICH no one can understand,unless you have been there. When your mind is not free you are in mental prison. I pray for peace for Sara Lynn her mom and brother. To Lina, God is still on the thrown and has not forgotten you or your children. He will come through. He is still working. Keep the Faith.

    I thought when people commit crimes and they are found to be mentally unfit for trial the job of psychiatrist is to medicate them and get them fit to stand trial.

    The guy who killed the people in the movie theatre in Colorado is also psycho, but Dominicans wait and see what’s going to happen to him.

    When known psycho in Roseau steals or do something silly they bring them to court and then send them straight to Stock Farm. Known vagrants we’re talking about here. There are a number of mentally I’ll people at stock farm as I write, doing time for their crime. So if and I say again “if” she is/was really mentally ill why the difference in treatment.

    Dominicans will continue to loose confidence and trust in the legal system and this is a very dangerous trend.

    I understood that Sarah is in a mental institution,is this is a true, what better way to get out of that horrible place then to ask to return to Dominica.We know how slowly justice grinds in Dominica.

      so how many children did you kill or tempted to kill? we understand each situation is different. And of course, I was being sarcastic in my opening question. Sarah case is unique, the children were stabbed multiple times. These were children so of course we agree that it was not a normal situation so something had to have been wrong. We will have a different reason as to what really happened. I believe that it was demonic influence and those children had to be sacrificed. Dr. Benji, however, said that she was fit to stand trial. I do not think that if it were a matter of depression and PTSD he would not have made that recommendation, so you see why we are confused. Had he said that she was experiencing what you described, then we could tend to agree with you. And I sympathize with your situation, hence my rhetorical question.

This is an individual that is mentally sick> She is deemed to be unfit to be tried and lets move one. We seem to forget the victims that were involve. Common now.

    I am no psychologist, but if a mentally ill person wants to speak up, I thought the wisest thing to do would be to allow them to speak….. … …….if she is mentally ill or she has two personalities, there is nothing wrong with that, but allow her to speak……. unless the family is really hiding something.

    i think what Matt did was just pure nonesense… Sarah-Lynn needs help and it’s obvious to everyone… well most of us that she’s needs some kind of attention… whether medical or spiritual…. And for Matt to air what was said…. Hmmmmmm…. Ebeh….. Matt was only thinking about what Sarah-Lynn had to say and not listening carefully before broadcasting this…. We need to remember that the kids had a father and relatives on his side that are feelig the pain also… and for this thing to keep going on, reminding the people of this when they are trying to move on….. It just really hurts me to see how selfish and all-for-themselves some people are!

      If someone else had done it would it be wrong? enough with the Matt bashing. Sarah Lynn has a right to be heard whether you and all your systems believe she is devoid of logic.You have not evaluated her, and by the way in mental hospitals people are not just medicated and robotized with no power of expression. They are allowed to speak out. OH why should they simply get to MOVE ON according to you. LEST WE NEVER FORGET!!!!! Who is really selfish here? turn your dial. The woman irrespective of her state of mind is a criminal and it’s the same whitewashing game that cause her to flee her day in court. All of you who aided in this escape and suppression of justice must hear her rantings, the voices of the children and be tormented for life. Matt and more media houses need to interview her over and over.

    Patient Privacy Act, is there such a thing in Dominica? Well there should be. I really do not understand how DNO can openly discuss a matter concerning a patient,it was deemed a non criminal act therefore she deserves the protection of the government & the Medical Board . The mother was hoping for a sympathetic ear for her daughter, not recognizing the canibalistic views of the Dominican public forum. Dog eat Dog! Criminals names are witheld. People with political clout can order the press to not publish their information. People with money can pay to have their names kept out of the papers. Yet this young lady who is obviously suffering from a mental disorder is exposed to the ignorance of the public;Why would the public be given the opportunity to gloat on the hardship of this young lady. Suggestion:DNO, maybe in future you could report sensitive matters without the opportunity for the public to leave a comment which is usually in such poor taste.

      @ Wendy

      Dominica is a small place. When crimes are committed, no different to other countries, they are broadcasted. She is an adult and so her name was broadcasted and printed. This is acceptable. This is what DNO did. In addition, Sarah Lyn has been writing on her Face Book and also contacted the Media.
      Who deemed it was not a criminal act? By a one-man show or a few family members? Sarah Lyn has not yet said that she was not at fault. She is now speaking and nobody knows if she is telling the truth.
      It was a criminal act. The fact remains that she murdered her two children. If the case was called in DA, it would be left to the Court after hearing the evidence of her defense and the prosecution to decide her demeanor when she stabbed her children and caused their murder. A hearing to that effect did not take place. She did not stand trial for their murder.
      We do not know the truth. We do not know who is telling the truth. The majority of us are suspicious and of the reason why she was allowed to leave Dominica, citing that she would receive better medical care in Canada. This was not enough to satisfy Dominicans. Furthermore Dr. Benjamin stated that she was fit to stand trial. These psychiatrists are trained professionals. They know the questions to ask supposedly patients, to determine whether they are sane or not – able to stand trial or not.
      When she arrived in Canada did she receive immediate medical care? We also do not know that. Much has been withheld from Dominican nationals.

      @ Wendy Williams really? Wasn’t it political clout that forced the DPP to drop the charges? Wasn’t it political clout that got her bail and even at the funeral? wasn’t it political clout of a pastor friend that move all those wheels.Dominicans are canibalistic? you would know, because after you all used the upper might of politicians to make well her escape now you want to speak bs. But this case has to haunt each and everyone of you, because Dominicans will not be silenced!!

    It is very sad that a young lady who suffered a mental breakdown and inadvertently killed her two innocent children , must continue to take this public flogging , as though this was her penalty for mental illness .
    Matt seems like a good person , but , when situations like that keep recurring , it gives cause for pause .

    We can all debate this, n share our opinions, the fact remains she killed two innocent children, not simply but in a very violent and brutal way. Regardless of reason, postpartum, multiple disorder, depression, abuse, possession etc the facts are she killed two children. She should be in jail for a very long time. They can treat her from jail, but she should not be out walking freely. Only in dominica u can commit murder n get away with it.

      @ pnie

      Generally the murderer is imprisoned. If doctors/psychiatrists diagnose that the person is suffering from a mental condition, they are not allowed to be out walking the streets or even to leave the country. They will be sent to a mental institution where they will receive relevant treatment. If after receiving medical treatment the doctors diagnose that the murderer is fit to stand trial, then the person will stand trial but the person will be imprisoned. There must be a Court hearing to determine eligibility for parole or not. This is how the Law operates. It should not be an exception in Dominica.
      Based under her circumstances as the DPP stated to DA Nationals, did she leave Dominica all by herself and traveled to Canada or was she accompanied by a reliable adult? If she did not, the airline authorities should have been notified for obvious reasons, if a passenger is suffering from a mental disorder. They would not be pleased that this person travelled all by herself. Known murderers are not merely put on a plane and sent to another country for the safety of other passengers. I am not insinuating that she traveled all alone. It is just a speculation. I am also questioning it. Dominicans have reasons to question all of this and to know the truth, in fact to demand it which was withheld from them. Keep in mind two small children were murdered by their mother. The mother did not stand trial. This is a serious matter and not one to be taken lightly. Furthermore, were it another mother or father who resided in DA and did this, how would the DA Law handle their case? The Law has to be fair to everyone with no exception.

    Dear DNO,
    I have been looking for a story on your site and am very disappointed that you did not run it. I see all who steal from thier employers, with phots attached, and all other stories, but not the one of the man caught by the police in the act of abusing a 13 year old girl, and who was granted bail on Thursday. Why I would so much like to see the story run is because he has a habbit and has been getting away with this nonesense for years. We act like we care for children so much and this little monster’s face should be all over the news for everyone to see.

    You run the story when welfare division is concerned, so run the ones when the monsters are caught.

    Every one has let dis woman down by not allowing her to face justice,she is crying out to face justice like everyone else n crying out for her family to understand that she is a woman now whom they’ve sheild for too long even to the point of her killing her kids and they r there covering her up. let her face justice then she will forgive herself n shut up for once. Everyone seems to be in control of Dominica, why was she allowed to leave like dis flown out of Dominica freely. this is absolute rubbish. Her mum needs to allow her to face justice n be locked up, this is normal punishment. After listening to dis woman in my opinion when she is out of this rehab unit she will seek justice within her family.

      This is the only way this case could be closed. She cannot do it on her own. She will need a defense lawyer and a Court hearing so that, hopefully, the truth will come out to rest this case. Where is she going to do this if not in Dominica where she murdered her two children? We already know what she did. What can she say which will clear her name?

    as a mother of 3 young children residing in the UK,if i was to travel to D/CA n commit such a crime i would av to face trial and improisment, nothing would av saved my backside, not postnatal depression, bipolar disorder, family stress, financial stress absolutely nothing. so in my view yes she is ill n wat she has done is hunting her likewise it would to any of us and after listening to her and her mum, my view is that dis woman wants punishment for wat she has done, she knows she should pay for dis crime dis is wat she means by justice for the kids. As well she is saying she was pushed/ pressured by her family especially her mum n sister, as well she was stressed by de kids dad. so in her view they to she be punished for dis crime n i totally agreee with her, however she needs to be punished for wat she did at a time of madness and it is my view that the day she is punished then she will feel at peace with herself otherwise dis she is going to carry on and something worst might happen. mental illness or not she should be punished for de crime she commited and dis is all she is crying out for.

      We are in the year and month September 2012. She left Dominica approximately one year ago. She avoided a Court hearing supposedly due to her mental condition, so it was stated.
      The question is when she arrived in Canada, did she receive immediate medical care since this was the reason why she was sneaked out of Dominica without nationals knowing about it. We would like to know and also the result if she did receive this care soon after arrival. This irks all of us who are concerned about this situation and who feel extremely sad at what occurred to those two innocent children.

    A new born baby would deem this young lady incompetent. Listening to this lady answering to simple questions and making a complete soup of the answers is cause to deem her incompetent. I think to suggest that she is insane is going a bit to far but surely she is out of her mind. Yes her grammer is ok, use of words ok, psychotropic terms ok but there is/are fuses that are shortings. Everyone is free to express opinions but i urge those who suggest that she is mentally and emotionally stable must listen to her again. This young lady playing smart but not being clever is dearly deserved to be helped. Her situation right now is made into a talkorama and I am hoping that those who are making so will see fit to appropriately and quickly bring help to her.

      September 2, 2012

      What I am reiterating is, “Did she receive help approximately one year ago” after she arrived in Canada. Dominicans have not received an update of her mental condition. I do think they should have received one from the DPP himself who arranged for her to leave to Dominica for treatment, stating that he was in contact with ‘Canadian Authorities’? Who are those Canadian Authorities. He did not state the Canadian government as the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
      Dominicans are entitled to it because of the murder of her two children and she did not stand trial for them. Remember that she was out on bail. Do governments grant bail to murderers whom they know are insane? If later they realize that they are insane, under no circumstances should they ever be allowed to leave the country.
      Some of us could make better investigative Police Authorities without such training because we utilize our common sense. Are you aware that this could make a good book and an intriguing one?

    This picture was sent to delude DNO readers and make them feel sorry for Sarah Lyn Augustine. She is feigning sick and so is her family who is cooperating with her. I am not moved. We want to know the truth of this matter.
    Some of us could make excellent investigators. We put on our thinking cap. This is a serious matter and one to be taken seriously. Those with a conscience and sympathy for the two innocent children who were murdered by Sarah Lyn, their mother will be concerned how she deluded the Dominica Justice System and did not stand trial for the murder of her two children while she was in Dominica, prior to being allowed to return to Canada.
    The truth of this matter has not been told and I am certain not to Canadian authorities who have a right to know that two Canadian children were murdered by their mother in DA. They would also want to know the reason why she murdered them.
    Sarah Lyn left Canada with her two children and did not return with them. Was she required to divulge this to immigration when she returned to Canada without them?
    When Pestaina and Sarah Lyn’s family were making arrangements for her return to Canada with the so-called Canadian authorities, were they notified that she murdered her two Canadian children? If he or her family did in fact speak to the Canadian authorities, did he divulge to them that she murdered her two children?
    Someone had to purchase an airline ticket for Sarah Lyn in Dominica or renewed her ticket for return to Canada. Dominicans were aware that she murdered her two children. They saw her picture and knew her name.
    Did she have a year-round return ticket? She also had two tickets for her children. What happened to those tickets? Were they cashed-in or were all the tickets expired?
    Was Sarah Lyn’s air line ticket purchased/renewed in Dominica under her real name with her passport? Was her identity kept a secret? Did she go to the airline office or did someone perform the transaction for her?
    Was the sales person at the airline office aware that she was departing Dominica? If her real name was used, was a specific person at the airline office handled this transaction and was that person sworn to secrecy?
    In order to return to Canada she would have had to use her Canadian passport. When she arrived in Canada, who met her at the airport? I assumed her family.
    Were the Canadian authorities aware that she was returning to Canada on that day/evening? Being a murderer, did the Canadian authorities meet her at the airport so as to place her in a hospital since Pestaina stated that he will not pursue the case and that the Canadian authorities agreed to return her to Canada for treatment? Surely, the Canadian authorities would already have reserved a hospital or home to place her for treatment.
    It is one year since she returned to Canada. The day after she arrived in Canada did she visit a doctor? What type of treatment she received when she arrived in Canada or soon thereafter? Prove of this should be provided.
    Pertaining to the Canadian births and deaths registry, did she or her family report to the government that she murdered hr children? The place, time, date, day, month, year and reason must be recorded on the death certificates. It is imperative that the truth be told about those children.
    I believe, although they are in Heaven their blood is crying to Heaven for vengeance because prior to their death, they suffered at the hands of their mother, while she was stabbing them many times. They must have been crying and wailing while she was murdering them. This was her intention which was heartless of her.

      Give me a good program that I could learn something from (they are few) and a good comedy, even those old ones, I appreciate them better. Young people even some older ones still view them.

      To all of you who say that she is not all there; that she is crazy, she should be asked if she is presently seeing a psychiatrist and did she see one when she arrived in Canada and for how long and did the psychiatrist state that she is insane. We need to know that.
      There are some people who are very good at pretending. She wants to exonerate herself. She cannot exonerate herself from murder. Unless we know that she is truly insane and was insane then, we cannot make a rational judgment about her insanity.

      @ Canadian

      There are many bleeding hearts who only feel sorry for people but this is as far as their help goes which is why some people do not get better but worst. Canada has many of those people.
      Since you know so much, then tell us, when she left Dominica did she receive appropriate medical treatment as soon as she returned to Canada? Did her family ensure that she received this immediate treatment? How long did it take for her to be examined by a psychiatrist? I wonder if they were negligent about that when she returned to Canada?
      She was having fun in this year’s Caribana band. She was not insane at that time.
      For the Canadian records, it is imperative that the Canadian government know that she murdered her two children and that they are recorded as such in the Registry of Deaths.
      The government and all relevant departments will keep their eyes on her. I am not stating that they will be following her around but to a certain extent if she needs help, her condition and the fact she murdered her two children will be in their archives. She will no longer be a free person to roam the Ontario streets.
      If she is truly sick it will be in her interest, mortally (morally) and spiritually to pray to God, to worship Him and ask for His Divine Assistance. She is in dire need of the Healing Presence and Power of Our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope that all of you will offer her this godly advice. I hope that all of you will offer her this godly advice and ensure that she gets it. Only God Heals!

    I like that bwa kwaieb: Sarah lyn shouldn’t be institutionalized because of public opinion. She should be in a psych ward or prison because she murdered two human beings in cold blood. Whether she meant to do it or not she needs to be somewhere without access to facebook or the media. The kid are no longer here. Doesn’t anybody care that these two children were on earth and they’re now not? Her family keeps on making so many excuses yet all sarah lyn’s action displays someone in total control of their mind. It seems that anyone can just walk around killing, raping and abusing anyone in Dominica without repercussions. This is a society without adherence and enforcement of laws. This government , judiciary and leaders in this country are pathetic in my opinion. Useless! Why do you even need leadership if the leaders won’t lead?

      @ concerned

      Did you give it a thought that if he rejected her in this case I feel sorry for her. Human beings should know that affairs of the heart and such disappointments are not easy to accept and to get over. It could cause people, man or woman to go insane if they truly love the one who disappointed them.
      This is something for Dear Abby/Ann Landers (old articles) and Dear Bella on DNO. :lol:
      She may be missing her ex-boyfriend. After all she was (must still be) in love with him. She had two beautiful children for him. The thought that he is married and he is finished with her could send her insane and worst yet that she murdered her two children when she was supposedly rejected by him.
      Put on your thinking cap. If she is in a psychiatric ward, I do hope her family will be honest and inform the doctor of what happened to her in Dominica and what she did. He/she could better treat her, offer advice, counseling and that she could be restored to health of mind. If she and her family are hiding it from the doctor(s), she may never get cured.
      Life is worth living. There is hope for Sarah Lyn but she must try to help herself, primarily with the help of God.
      Our Lord said, “In this world you will have trouble. Take heart. I have conquered the world.” The problem is that people do not turn to him when they encounter problems. Give this a good thought.

    Has anyone considered her frame of mind before the incident occured? Were there family members around who could tell what she was going through? I don’t believe that anyone in their right frame of mind would do such a heinous crimeespecially against her own children. Many times we are quick to judge but we must first have evidence before we criticise or condemn anyone.
    Of course the children’s lives are taken into consideration because they were both innocent. No mother would intentionally murder her children unless she is really mentally disturbed which I believe is the situation and now Mrs. Augustine confesses that she is not herself.
    We must also try to understand the total situation instead of being so judgmental. The young lady really needs help.

    All you people talking none sense about what should be done to Sarah! None of you are nurses or doctors but you all have the most opinions on what she should and shouln’t do if she has Post Pardum Depression. This is my cousin and while I donot agree with what she did, I know she loved her kids; and speaking from a medical stand point, Post Pardum Depression can lead anyone under a stressfull situation to commit a crime like that. Clearly Sarah’s actions over the last couple days are those of one with a mental disorder. So for those of you who don’t know how to be compassionate in a situation like this one, shut you all mouths, and go read on mental disorders before you come online posting about mental disease from pure ignorance.

    I’m not judging here,but my bible tells me by there fruit you shall know them…..I heard someone said “no mother would brutally murder their child”,but so many parents we know who physically abuse their children (brutally)all because they have a problem with they other parent.how many mothers do we know who past their RAGE on their unspecting children because they are mad at the father??

    This young lady told us this morning in an interview that she had so much rage in her,that she’s glad that’s it’s her children she kill and not someone else, which means she wanted to hurt someone ……when asked “why did you kill your children?” answer:”I was going to kill myself….. and I did not want my sister to have them”does this sound like someone who wasn’t aware of what she was doing?……from my own life experience, when a person is enrage they are capable of anything-some just have more controll than others…just my humble opionion

    Something is even more strange about this story. In all of this where is the children father. In all of that he has gone unscrutinized. Rumors has it that he was the last person Sarah spoke to on that dreadful night, if this is a fact, did he not observe any signs that all was not well with Sarah? I know it’s hard to imagine someone you know well would do something as dreadful as this. However, did he feel comfortable that his children or Sarah would be okay that night after he left?

    Something tells me that this girl sent off loud and clear signals before she committed this heart wrenching crime.

    I think this guy has gotten a free pass by our legal system, the media and the court of public opinion.

    I saw somewhere in her postings on Facebook where she indicated that the guy family was afraid that he would also be held responsible for the murders.

    I have a lot of question for this guy

    • Justice and Truth
      September 2, 2012

      Your first sentences may be correct that he was the last person she spoke to. He would not have murdered his children? If he knew this would have happened he probably would have tried to take them away from her. Two young people who probably did not know how to handle a situation as an argument. It could happen to anyone.
      He must be hurting too that his children were murdered. I do believe that someday he will have to talk. I am certain that those who conducted the investigation spoke to him. They, too, better speak up. This case is not over.
      In the frame of mind that some people are stating that Sarah Lyn is in, I hope she does not implicate him. What a melee this would be. Who would believe her? She was alone with the children.

    • September 3, 2012

      @Aye Dominique

      I have a few questions as well; but it is for both Sarah’s family and her children’s father.

      I am thinking that Sarah Lynn Augustine could not have declared a “Sarah Carter” of her mind after she did that crime–otherwise she would not be claiming “not to be alone” when she committed that crime.

      Sarah Lyn Augustine has been sick for a long time, and is getting worse–because she is being held hostage of both, her mind and her family who may have taken control of her existence, because of her weakness–for whatever the reason.

      All of those people here, who are declaring God will, God will, and God will; I hope they know and understand that God is Spirit and He needs the mind and body of a person in the physical to do His work, in whatever form He must do so. Otherwise nothing will be done, when everyone simply sit around and say God will.

      And so, Sarah’s healing demands that her family surrender their time to God, on her behalf, that through them He might give healing to their daughter, or whatever her relation is to the others.

  47. Finally
    August 31, 2012

    Finally! I’ve been reading most of the comments and finally i have to say i am very proud of the way most people are being supportive to Sarah’s mom and Sarah. Mental illness is a life long battle and only one that study the field or suffering from a mental disorder can truly attest to how their life and lifestyle have been altered by such a monstrous disease.
    I know that Sarah is seeking the help she deserves and is presently coming to reality with the crime she committed, while she was in an unconscious state of mind. Anyone that committed a crime or snapped under pressure would experience remorse. I think some of her wanting justice is, because she understood to an extent the severity of her actions. But without saying it is clear that this young lady does not deserve to be in a prison, but instead in an institution where she can get the best medical and psychological help available to her.
    I pray that one day the good Lord will help her love ones through this. Though, we know she will never be the same individual again i pray that she will be able to return to some form of normality without judgement. Like many people commented, looking into her face we could be looking into the faces of our family members. We would love it if such disaster should hit our home front that we be treated with respect to grieve in peace as well!

Just the love of God continue to flow in you and to show that love to your daughter, and let her know that God loves her, and that He forgives. It’s only human that don’t forgive, if we can’t forgive how can God forgive us. Jesus said he who is without sin let him cast the first stone. I pray that your daughter will get the necessary help that she needs and that God will help her to go through this.

    There is a devil loose upon this earth and he is here to destroy lives, it doesn’t matter who the person is, but for all the other people who are making judgments, check yourself individually.

    There are many who have aborted their children, if they ask for mercy God will give it to them, whatever the sin is. SIN IS SIN.

    My prayers are for you and your family that God will bring healing to you all. To those who have negative comments, I would like to say to you that JESUS IS COMING SOON, ARE YOU READY FOR ETERNITY.

    Clearly she’s severely mentally ill. Between her free posting on Facebook, these stories and various comments on the stories, what I am gleaning from this whole mess is that she is ‘in and out’ of a mental facility.

    And I don’t understand that part. She is clearly a danger to others – she should be permanently hospitalized. There are people who have committed horrible crimes who are deemed insane – and they are put into hospitals for the criminally insane.

    This woman seems to be a textbook case of criminally insane. I am fearful that she is being given such freedom that people can report seeing her out and about and that she is allowed access to social media. She is a danger and the first focus should be protecting society from HER and then the second focus protecting HER from herself.

  51. August 31, 2012

    It is now quite obvious that Sarah Lyn Augustine is suffering from the condition of (split personality), her mother`s description is exactly what I have read in books about people with that condition.

    Those stories are true stories written by psychiatrists themselves, who were treating those people for that condition.

    Those story have spoken of that certain person entering the treatment place, like their first person–their normal self–and would suddenly change to who ever they are possessed with–just as Sarah`s mother described in the above news article.

    Sometimes the person enters the treatment place with a new possessor–the doctor would have to ask questions like (who are you today) The person would reveal a new name, and with a new attitude or conduct, which the doctor had not yet seen.

    Most of the time that person`s possessor is someone stronger in character in whatever form–that is the primary reason that person`s mind gives birth to different identities.

    Just like Sarah`s mother said about Sarah Carter–whom Sarah claims, saying that they love each other. In Sarah`s case, she might have felt extremely helpless because Love was all that she needed, but she did not receive that love, from anyone. Love does not wait unless her loved one in under water to throw out her lifeline. Our words must reveal its action, otherwise those words are empty or futile.

    Also the sick person`s possessor can be either a person who hatea her, wanting to destroy her Life. That kind of possessor would be because the normal person does not think much about herself–that is the time we can say that person is demon possessed.

    Now I do not think that Sarah Lyn Augustine is demon possessed, but she does need medical treatment for a long time to come, prison term will not help her.

    It could be that in Sarah`s case,(Sarah Carter) is in defense on her behalf–even to kill her own children, whom she believed was standing in her way–as a young person who desired a glamorous existence of gaiety and freedom

    I believe that as people, we all have a different personality for the sake of our protection and satisfaction, but when it happens like in the case of Sarah Lyn Augustine, that is the time professional treatment should be called for.

    I am just wondering why did it take (mom) so long to report those things–it is quite obvious that Sarah has been suffering from that personality condition, even before she killed her children. Perhaps this action could have been avoided.

    That is why we need to pay close attention to the habits of our loved ones–and to know how to treat them with Love–in whatever way is needed–before the matter gets out of hand.

    It could be that is what Sarah Lynn Augustine is talking about when she speaks about the negativity of those who claim to love her.

    First of all , why should miss Sarah Augustine be out of Dominica. Secondly, why is she not locked up for murder. Thirdly, if she is mentally sick and is unfit to stand trial, why is she not institutionalized at a mental facility in Dominica.
    Fourthly, why is she free to even be able to blog on the internet and even have the temerity to want to share her side of her story. Her side of the story should have been heard by the jury who should have judged her actions, and today, two years after the crime, we should be praising those jurors and the prosecutor for seeking justice for the two innocent kids who were killed by a monster. Sarah, should not be in the news until she would have come up for parole in the next 15 years.
    To me, the prosecutor in this case should be banned from his profession and should be exiled for being the most unjust, incompetent and the biggest fool who ever walk the face of this earth.
    How can a justice system in a country allow this can of practice and behavior to take place? Is there any law and order in Dominica? Are we that incompetent and nonchalant as a society? Is there any standard, or is anyone above the law? Who gave the prosecutor to carry out this injustice against the people of Dominica and those two innocent children? Did these innocent children get any justice for being wiped out from the face of the earth? I am nonplussed by the stupidity of the prosecutor, however, I am ashamed of our legal system,and is out raged to be called a Dominican.
    The last time i read the Bible it clearly stated that thou shall not kill. I also know that in many countries the old system of an eye for an eye still exist. I succintly believe that Dominica is the only country on the planet earth where such an injustice and foolish act could happen. Not even in heaven or in hell could such folishness could have taken place. We have made ourselves the greatest jokers in the entire world. NO one should have ever gone free on such a heinous crime. They should either be spending the rest of their life in prison, or spending the rest of their life in a mental institution. It sickens me when i see this woman is free after committing such a grievous crime against society.
    We do not have a right to judge her heart, but we have a right to judge her actions, because they are quite conspicuous for all to see. And let not fool ourselves, because we know that no murderer can enter the kingdom of God, and it does not matter how much we pray for her nothing will happen until she confess her sins to God, ask for his forgiveness and live a righteous life through faith in Jesus Christ. I think that the authority of Canada should investigate the case, and then deport her to Dominica to stand trial.

Dominica has lots more important issues to address than what you guys are doing now, tell us the Dominican people why is it that a government in office for twelve years now does not see the importance of adressing the health issues in Dominica but instead building a state palace, tell us the Dominican people where the government and opposition does have their priorities wrong in not addressing the social ills in the country, tells us why is it we still have vagrans on the city streets husseling our tourist when we consider tourism to be everybody business, I urge you guys to pl let this Sarah Augustine thing rest in peace and allow this lady with a medical condition recoup.

      I do not know where you reside. I reside in Canada.
      Ask her mother and other members of the family when she returned to Canada did she receive psychiatric help.
      Do you not know that the Canadian people as well have a right to know? After all, two young Canadians were murdered by their mother in another country, namely, Dominica. It was kept a hush, hush by Pestaina and his department and her family. Generally, when Canadians get into accidents and are murdered overseas, the Media reports it. All of Canada hear and read about it. Why were these murders of two Canadian children in Dominica, not broadcasted in the Canadian Media? Something is wrong somewhere. It is fishy.
      I will further inform you the Media has not got hold of it yet as the Toronto Star and other Canadian Media outlets especially in Toronto, TV, Radio and Newspaper ones. I think it is time they hear about it ad pursue this story, be it in the interest of the mother so that if she is indeed sick she should get help. How much is her family assisting her?
      We are not heartless in this country when it pertains to babies that are murdered and if the mother who is the perpetrator is in dire need of medical care.

        Since you people are residing in Canada, you all need to bring your concerns to the Canadian Authorities, this is very fishy, there is more to this sad situation that you and I and others will never know,

    Mr. DPP! All you had to do was allow her to get the treatment in Canada until she is competent to stand trial, and then arrange with Canadian authorities to extradite her back to Dominica to face justice.
    Just because Canada said they will treat her, you don’t just dismiss the charges against her and let her walk free.

      You are correct. They are protecting her. Did Canada say they will treat her? This is the question.
      Murders of Canadians overseas, children or adults are not usually kept secret and are hidden from Canadian Media and nationals. I do not think that these people told the truth to the so-called Canadian authorities. I have my doubts about that. I do not think the Canadian government/ authorities would take these murders lightly. Worst yet where Canadian children are concerned.

        Only this week? Well, then, how can we ever believe that she was sneaked out of Dominica for medical treatment. I always put ‘two and two together’ and based on the situation. I had a feeling all along that there was a plot to get her out of DA. If the case was called, she surely would be imprisoned for some years unless she had a good lawyer to defend her and convince the Court that she was insane. This is difficult to prove since Dr. Benjamin stated that she was fit to stand trial. They knew what they did. If this case is pursued be it in Canada, as I have stated, some people will have a lot of explaining to do.

    Sarah lyn shouldn’t be institutionalized because of public opinion. She should be in a psych ward or prison because she murdered two human beings in cold blood. Whether she meant to do it or not she needs to be somewhere without access to facebook or the media. The kid are no longer here. Doesn’t anybody care that these two children were on earth and they’re now not? Her family keeps on making so many excuses yet all sarah lyn’s action displays someone in total control of their mind. It seems that anyone can just walk around killing, raping and abusing anyone in Dominica without repercussions. This is a society without adherence and enforcement of laws. This government , judiciary and leaders in this country are pathetic in my opinion. Useless! Why do you even need leadership if the leaders won’t lead?

      Bwa Kwaieb, This does not mean that the country is without adherence or enforcement of laws. People in other big countries are institutionalized as opposed to being thrown in jail for crimes they commit when the Judge gets the opinion of professional people. Even in the US this happens all the time. Yes I think she should be facing justice however she may needs treatment as well, the people who made the decision received the help of the country where she was born and I see no problem with that but that does not mean that the country is lawless.

    Environmental evidence suggests tht environmental factors play a significant role in the development and course of bipolar disorder, and that recent life events and interpersonal relationships contribute to the likelihood of onsets and recurrences of bipolar mood episodes, as they do for onsets and recurrences of unipolar depression. There have been repeated findings that between a third and a half of adults diagnosed with bipolar disorder report traumatic/abusive experiences in childhood, which is associated on average with earlier onset, a worse course, and more co-occurring disorders. she total number of reported stressful events in childhood is higher in those with an adult diagnosis of bipolar spectrum disorder compared to those without, particularly events stemming from a harsh environment rather than from the child’s own behavior. (taken from an article on the net) This explanation concurs with what Sarah Lynn said in her interview. The two people she spoke about: 1. she was caught between who she really was (adventurous, free spirited, carefree), and 2. who others wanted her to be (a good role model and strong christian). This girl to me wass trapped in a cocoon, wanting to be free, struggling to reveal her true self, yet being pressured to remain in that cocoon. I see a volcano brewing for years not being able to find a place to exhale. After remain concealed for so so long was forced to vent out causing massive destruction to those who are closest to it and affecting the lives of those who are NOT even directly involved. Could it be that her environment played a pivital role in in what has happened. LORD HAVE MERCY!!. My heart goes out to this young girl as i sit and listened and began to question MY OWN parenting skills. Father i pray that you show us your way. Amen.

    This isn’t even funny. I am a prosecutor and have tried many murder cases among others and this young woman sounded pretty sane to me. Yes maybe we may not agree with her logic etc or what she was saying – but she was clear – she knows she killed her children and she said it in the interview that she is basically happy and not alive in this terrible world to go thru what she has gone thru in her life. She killed them – she does not show any remorse and she feels justified. I think she should have gone to trial and should be in a prison now as opposed to a mental insitution but that is just my opinion base don what I heard this morning. I am sure her doctors know exactly why she is where she is. What I do not understand is how she has access to phones, facebook etc. Is she not being monitored ?

It is a unique situation and people have every right to question this, simply because it is not a normal act. So you just expect someone to kill their children, come on the radio talk so much incoherent things and expect us to shut up. It is unique and we have questions. We are not the ones who brought it back in the spotlight. AS a matter of fact, DOminicans almost forgot about This but know that it will be in our history book as one of the most heinous crimes. So if you guys do not wish for people to respond, then tell Sarah to stop talking and do not bring it back to our attention.

      The fact that she was on the radio and DNO means that she wants us to be in the know. She desires our feedback, so sit back, relax, read and enjoy.

Citizens of Dominica let us help the mother to cope with this unbearable situation. Why are you trying so hard to kill the mother with your wicked words. Every mother feels th pain of a child when she has comitted such acts and you too would. Emphathize with her.

    Over the last two days,I took the pain to read the majority of the comments in the previous article. Most left me feeling dismayed,but I was also encouraged by others. Then I ask the Lord what should my response be to such a perplexing situation. He reminded me of his mercy and grace, the essence of his character. Believe me, as tragic as this incident is and as henious as this crime is, God looks upon this family through his lens of grace and mercy. It is how they respond to his outstreched hand that will determine the final outcome. Therefore my reponse to all this was prayer and we did during our home bible study last night, took you sharalyn, and the entire family before the Lord,knowing there is an abundance of grace and mercy available to you. Please join in continuing in Prayer for them.

    I totally feel for this mother and for her daughter too. No matter what the circumstances, and even the fact that two kids were brutally killed, I always belived there was more to this story and and always felt sorry for Sara-Lyn because no mother in their right mind would be so vicious to their own kids. The young lady could never have been in her right mind, there must have been a force stronger than her, I honestly believe that this young lady was not even conscious or aware of doing what she did at the time it was being done. Sometimes we must put ourselves in the other persons place because trust me we live in a wicked, corrupt and perverse world where the devil is raging, moving to and fro, seeking whom he may devor. If we are vulnerable, we are easy prey and not only that, it is very easy for one to lose their mind. The difference between sanity and insanity is so thin,and some people can snap so easily because they can only take so much.

    We need to stop saying those negative things that are being said and not only pray for Sara-Lyne and her family but for our families. It may seem hard to belive, but anyone of us could find ourselves in this situation be it with us directly or with a family member.
    My pray is that this spirit be destroyed and not show up it’s ugly head in our land.

    The bible says, “if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” Intercessors, God fearing people, annointed people, we need to rise up to the call and take our stand, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood, it is a spiritual battle and if we don’t stand, then we are sure to fall. I take comfort in the Word of God that says, ” The gates of hell shall not prevail” in Jesus Name!!

      The ‘devil’ is our mind, which becomes so focused on trivial things that we turn to do evil things. I wish people would stop referencing this ‘devil’ force/person—-in life we all have to choose who we will follow–God, goodness, humility, grace, or some devil guy. I propose that everyone remains good, so that they can do good! The ‘devil’ had nothing to do w/ this–Sarah Lynn’s mind did this. As mom, I understand post partum depression, but I hope that she gets the help that she needs, because we cannot blame other things/people for our sins–Life does not work like that!

      Thank you for your kind comment. As a relative of Sarah Lynn it really hurts me to hear the negative and judgemental comments that people have to say. It is like a witch hunt, everybody is hungry for blood. I believe it is ignorance, because we can be so narrow-minded, and we fail to see that mental illness can be as serious as cancer or some other chronic condition. It is a known fact that unless we suffer from mental illness ourselves we can never know what emotions living with a mental illness is like. The fact remains that our precious babies were killed, but you will never know what goes on in a sick person’s mind to drive them to do something horrifying. Can we at least take the time to educate ourselves and try to empathise, instead of being so quick to make judgemental and cruel remarks? You never know when you will have to see someone you love go through the same thing, and I pray that you never have to find yourself in a similar situation. “Anonymous”, your kind words are heartwarming and encouraging, it is good to know that some persons have the mind of christ and stil believe in mercy and love.

        I believe that the young lady is mentally ill. I would not be so sure that she is not a threat to anyone else. Therefore she should be in a mental facility receiving treatment and being monitored. If her family think that just being free is the best thing for her they are sadly mistaken and chances are things will only get worse for her. She is vulnerable and needs specialist care.

    No one should argue with that. This is the rhythm of a mother’s heartbeat. I really do feel for her. She lost her grand kids and now is struggling to deal with her “precious princess”.

I doubt that Sarah herself knows the truth, so why should she be given a chance to say it? She needs to talk but definitely not through the media, where matters will get out of hand. What Sarah needs in pray, fasting and intercession. She also needs to be seeing a good, God fearing councellor who will guide her and assist her to deal with what is fighting within her. So if you are truly a fmaily member, do the right thing and stay out of this forum with your negative comments!! oh by the way, I do not know Sarah nor her mother

      But this is what I don’t understand. After giving Sarah the opportunity to speak on the airwaves, plus the numerous facebook posting, why is she not revealing that truth. After all, the mother is not with her holding her hostage. I believe that if she really had something to say she would say it because she does not appear shy.

      Some people say she is sane, some say she is not..The chief Psychiatrist said she is fit to stand trial. Dominicans are curious because if she is fit and was set free, we are left puzzle because there are other crimes of similar nature that persons are not set free. SO yes, this is of national interest to us DOminicans.

        Based on her postings on facebook and her interview, Sarah lynn seems conflicted by her actions and the actions of the poeple in her family. It is clear that evil is part of this story. She keep reference to her family not wanting her to tell the truth and the evil of those around her. A mother’s love will not allow her to do these things to her kids in her right state of mind. Yes she wants to tell her story but I don’t think she can because of all the forces stopping her. IF she truly accepted and ask the lord for forgiveness he will give her the strength to talk and set herself free…
        This girl knows what she is talking about but is being silenced by a higher being….. So all we can do is pray for her and ask god to deliver her. Whether she did it or not is not our cross to bear, though we are saddened, but just remember that where as evil is concerned anyone of us, as human can fall into a boat we do not know how to stare… Sarah Lynn I have said a prayer for you and will continue to do so… only God can save you

        Yes since the young lady wants to speak she should return to D’ICA that’s if she is not here already and reopen the case the DPP office should comply and make it happen.Some folks looking to blame the DPP office I say nonsence the decision was based on medical advice from both doctors and they made the decision at the time but now things have change bring her back to court to answer questions she wants to return to the Courts to do so then those who are in authority should make it happen bring her back to Dominica to stand trial. she is in CANADA and the tax payers there are footing the bill to have her in the facility she is in taking treatment, I also believed the first doctor was on the ball but we all have to learn from these mishaps in life and keep moving on.
        I haven got the professional training so I cannot give a medical opinion but listening to her speak their are times when she speaks in the pass tence also it’s as if she is talking with a sencodary person and that could only be the evil that’s in her she needs medical help, I thought only in the North Americas that some lawyers would peel their client as being insane so they could get a free ride thru the justic system, she needs to retun to D’ica to stand trial.
        She is coreect when she said the children are crying

      She is free to speak the truth as she is doing through the Media and Face Book. No one is preventing her from doing so.
      At her age, her first child was given up for adoption. She had two other children with another man which she murdered because he did not marry her.
      I do not think she is a godly, obedient and exemplary child. She appears to be someone who want her ways, has her ways and did not obey her mother.

    you should hear the stories of some women suffering from post partom syndrome…some want to throw their babies off the window…fight the urge to kill trier babies with knifes or strange their babies to death….

      why do you keep saying she was suffering from post partum? She wasn’t. The woman tell all you not making excuses for her. What is so hard to understand that she was having issues with her familys’ control over wanting to take her children and impose the same church beliefs they had on them as they did with her and this is why she came to DCA to get her bigger daughter? She also stated she had a fight with the man, because she was torn between him and her family and their values. She clearly stated she committed the act after a fight with her mother. What is so hard to believe in that, no you all rather invent demons, and syndrome. Sarah went overboard, but this is not far fetched as some of you want to make it. So many Dominican women are guilty of brutalizing their kids, beating them to a pulp, burning them, bursting their heads, verbally abusing them,it so happen nobody hand never give the last fatal blow and often the kids were 8-9 etc.

      Man problems, family pressure and selfishness as she stated by her own account she has no regrets they are better of. To some of you only a sick mind would do it, but she took that option. Sarah needs to be tried and imprisoned plain and simple. Enough with the pity party of syndromes and disorders

      @ tiny

      We are not disputing this. We have heard and read about it. This is prevalent (more so) in big countries for whatever reason. How many Dominican women – in Dominica – of yester year and today do you know who experienced post partum depression? Some of them had many children. They experienced personal difficulties while pregnant and afterwards. They were (are) religious and their faith, hope and trust in God kept them strong.
      Why did she not telephone her mother when she was experiencing difficulty and rejection from her boyfriend? Her mother would have given her some advice and to take the children to a relative. She did not have to stab them so many times and murder them. Something is remiss here.

      You are sooo right. From what I read, many people don’t understand how serious this is, and it doesn’t take much for something to trigger postpartum depression. At that time hormones are all over the place. The body is still unstable and when you are under stress and not getting support, it is easy for this to be triggered. That’s why it is important to support women after they have gone through the whole pregnancy and delivery process.
