Anderson Nicholson
Nicholson allegedly killed Trevlyn Amelia Kingston, who was 23 at the time and a mother of one, on October 14, 2008 at D Edward, West Bank Berbice.
State prosecutor, attorney at law Priteema Kissoon, presented the indictment to the court which is being presided over by Justice Roxanne George Wiltshire.
Nicholson is being represented by attorney at law Tanya Warren Clement. The judge then adjourned the matter to Monday to give the attorney enough time to go through the deposition. She also stated that she will be unavailable on Thursday and Friday.
When his name was called Nicholson told the court that he answered to the alias ‘Andy’, but does not know the name ‘Cowboy’.
It was reported that on the day in question the man killed the woman at their home following a misunderstanding. He escaped, but subsequently turned himself over to the police a day later in the company of a lawyer.
They had been married for only four months after living in a common-law relationship for a number of years.
The state is expected to call seven witnesses.
