However, the case was adjourned to June 29, 2015, because Critchlow’s lawyer, Dexter Todd, and the virtual complainants Tenisha Harry and Latoya Kellman were absent from the hearing. During his first court appearance Critchlow was placed on $10,000 bail for each charge.
The charges read that on the day in question, Critchlow being armed with a cutlass in one hand and while bearing the coffin of his son in the other hand went into the Plaisance health centre, making threatening remarks towards the nurses.
Critchlow was accused of blurting out “Blood will shed here today”, and then he chopped a table before leaving.
The man, who suffers from hypertension, is maintaining his innocence and has opined that he is now being framed and victimized by members of the health sector, in their attempt to cover up being culpable for the death of his baby boy.
Kevon Critchlow died in March, less than 24 hours after he was injected by a nurse at the Plaisance health centre. Although the preliminary post mortem indicated that the child died of brain hemorrhage, the family maintains he was given a wrong injection.
