Picture Boy Double Murder Trial…Matter will go to the jury
Justice Diana Insanally yesterday overruled the no-case submissions made by the defense and it is expected that double murder accused, Ceon Collier, called ‘Picture Boy’, will commence his defense today before a mixed Demerara Assizes jury.
Collier is charged with the murders of Victoria brothers; Ray Walcott called ‘Sugar’, and Carl Andrews, called ‘Alo’ on September 23, 2006.
When the trial resumed yesterday, Senior State Counsel Judith Gildharie-Mursalin responded to the no-case submissions made by Defense Counsel, Lyndon Amsterdam last Friday. These submissions were all done in the absence of the jury.
Following the Prosecutor’s submissions, Justice Insanally immediately handed down her ruling that she will call upon the accused to lead a defense. Collier is being represented by attorney at law Lyndon Amsterdam.
Amsterdam then sought an adjournment to today to commence that process.
