An 18-year-old from Madrelle, Loubiere is now remanded at the Dominica State Prison after being charged by the police for murder.<\/p>\n

George \u2018Ronnie\u2019 Parker appeared before the Magistrate Court yesterday \u2013September 4\u2013 where the charge was read to him.<\/p>\n

According to the police report, on Saturday 29, August 2020, Denzel Avelyn Lenon James, 24 of\u00a0 Citronier, sustained a stab wound to his back on Great George Street in Roseau. He was then transported to the Accident & Emergency Department of the Dominica China Friendship Hospital via private vehicle about 11:45 a.m.<\/p>\n

James later succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead by a Medical Doctor.<\/p>\n

Since the matter is an indictable offence and is expected to be heard before a Judge and jury, Parker was not required to enter a plea.<\/p>\n

The Chief Magistrate, Candia Carette-George who presided over the matter, advised the defendant that any application for bail must be made to the High Court of Justice through his attorney.<\/p>\n

The accused is represented by attorney-at-law Gina Abraham-Thomas from the chambers of Norde & Lambert.<\/p>\n

The matter was adjourned to December 15, 2020, for a preliminary inquiry to determine if there is enough evidence in the case for trial at the High Court.<\/p>\n

Meantime, the mother of the accused could be heard outside the court describing the circumstances as \u201cunfortunate.\u201d<\/p>\n
