‘Spoil Child’ remanded to prison for paramour’s murder.

Mar 13, 2020 News

Thirty-three-year-old Teon Allen, aka Spoil Child, appeared in front of Magistrate Dylon Bess, at the Linden Magistrate’s Court, under heavy police guard, on Wednesday. He was charged with murdering his girlfriend, Colessa Hunte, 28, on Friday, February 27, last.
The charge was indictable, so Allen was not required to plead. He was remanded to prison until April 6, 2020.
Colessa Hunte, a mother of two, was shot at the couple’s home at Wenbar Road, in a remote and bushy area aback of Central Amelia’s Ward on February 27.
Both Hunte and Allen were subsequently taken to the Linden Hospital Complex, where Hunte succumbed.
Allen was hospitalised at the said institution, under police guard.
There were earlier media reports, suggesting that Allen was the target of the attack, which was suspected to be gang related, and orchestrated by a rival gang that Allen had an ongoing feud.
However, following police investigations, Allen became the prime suspect, after his injuries were found to be superficial, and not consistent with fresh gunshot wounds.
Allen has had several brushes with the law. In November 2019, he was shot at Rahaman’s Turn, Houston, East Bank Demerara.
At the time, he was before the courts for having an illegal AK-47 in his possession. He was arrested and charged for harbouring wanted men, Uree Varswyck and Mark Royden Williams, who broke out of the Camp Street Prison on July 9, 2017 during a fire and riot.
Prior to this, he was charged with discharging a firearm with intent to commit murder and released on $50,000 bail.
He was also wanted by police in Linden for the attempted murder of Denise Grant and Tiffany McBeth, in Amelia’s Ward, on September 2, 2019.
In December 2019, he was charged for shooting at a policeman and for being in possession of illegal arms and ammunition.
