Single mother says police doing nothing about husband’s death

Jan 27, 2018 News

A single mother of one is frustrated and still contemplating her next move, after her husband died one month ago. The Police seem to be dragging their feet on the matter ever since, she says.
Cezanna Domingo said that her 34-year old husband, Winston Domingo, was killed when the driver of a Toyota Carina 212, struck him as he was returning home on his bicycle, on the Public Road at Anna Catherina, West Coast Demerara.
He was rushed to the Leonora Cottage Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
The 20-year old mother said that her husband, who was a cane harvester, was the sole bread winner of the home and that she has been scraping to manage her daily expenses.
“Right now it really hard on me. I have me baby to send to school, I have my bills and all them thing. I trying to find a wuk but it hard and the man who do this to me husband still walking free.”
She expressed great dissatisfaction over the fact that the person who killed her husband was released after 72 hours of being in the custody of Police, at the Leonora Police Station.
Domingo said, “Every time I go to the Station to find out what really happening with the matter, the Commander asking me why I goin there and that they gun call me”.
She said she was even told at one time that she needs to get evidence and witnesses to her husband’s death.
A senior officer at the Leonora Police station said that indeed the woman was asked to provide witnesses to her husband’s death, and this was only due to the fact that both sides of the story are needed. In the same breath, the rank said that only the driver’s side of the story was given.
He added that the he had related to the woman that the Police cannot charge someone without sufficient evidence. He said he even requested that she brought witnesses, which she claimed she had.
The officer also said that as far as he knows, the matter was being sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions for advice.
