Murder accused trio further remanded

Sep 24, 2010 News

Trevor Abrams, Josephine Henry and her husband, Frank Henry who were jointly charged with the capital offence of murder appeared yesterday at the Charity Magistrate’s Court and were further remanded by Magistrate Faith Mc Gusty.
The trio is jointly charged with the murder of Pomeroon farmer, Victor Williams aka Willo.
According to police on July 3 last at Friendship, Canal, Lower Pomeroon, Williams was discovered in a trench, sometime around 23:00 hrs.
In an earlier report, Ivy Williams, the dead man’s wife said that her son Sheldon told her that his father indentified his killers before he succumbed to his injuries. Williams died of injuries he sustained to both his forehead and leg, before receiving medical attention.
Mrs. Williams, who shared a union of 30 years with her now dead husband, said that on the fateful day, at Friendship, she and her husband attended a wedding a mile away from their residence.
The woman had recounted that at the wedding her husband was seen socializing with friends. Mrs. Williams noted that later in the evening, her son-in-law, Dexter Benjamin, approached her and questioned her about the whereabouts of her husband.
She told her son-in-law that she last saw her husband with some friends and alerted their sons Sheldon and Victor Jr., to go in search of their father.
She also related that a woman, upon seeing her two sons approaching the area where their father was later found, had warned Williams’s attackers of their presence. She claims that the trio then fled.
Both sons later assisted their father out of the trench and subsequently transported him to the Charity Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Police recovered a blood stained T-shirt, a hat and a pair of slippers.
