Creavone Thorne, the woman whose decomposing body was found in a trench on Thursday, died as a result of manual strangulation.
Thorne, 26, of Lot 35 Lyng Street, Charlestown, was found in a trench along Thomas Lands on Thursday morning. A post-mortem examination was conducted on Thorne’s remains by Government Pathologist Dr Nehaul Singh at the Georgetown Hospital mortuary yesterday.
Stabroek News was reliably informed that when the woman’s swollen body was found, what appeared to be a belt mark was visible around her neck, while a wound consistent with it being banged against a solid subject was evident at the back of her head.
Meanwhile, Thorne’s boyfriend, who was arrested hours after the gruesome discovery was made, remains in police custody. Police went to the house the couple shared and removed items belonging to the man yesterday. According to reports, the man was the last person to speak with Thorne.
At the house, relatives were still in shock and continued to question what might have led to Thorne’s tragic death. Several of her friends turned up and recalled their last moments with her.
They also reflected on her life, which they described as very outgoing.
Relatives had told Stabroek News that the Antigua-based woman was last seen on Monday night when she told a cousin that she was going “to mek a fine spin.” Her semi-nude body was already in a state of decomposition when it was fished out of the trench halfway between the African Cultural Development Association (ACDA) building and Albert Street, opposite the National Park. The spot was in a trench outside the Guyana Sports Club ground. This newspaper had incorrectly said that the body was found outside the Malteenos Sports Club Ground, which is actually located further up Thomas Lands.





Violence against women must not be tolerated.
A day in the life of a woman in Guyana is not easy. They have to find, food, shelter, clothing, school supplies, bus fare etc. etc.
He goes to work, (maybe) blows half the money on his friends (women), comes home and expect meat or fish on the table. The old saying goes “only a woman knows where the roof is leaking”.
Women are working harder each day and getting abused more because some men cannot deal with the strength and endurance of a woman. The laws must change to punish the perps; the law enforcement officers need to respect the women when they make a complaint and protect the women.
Prayers go out to Ms. Thorne’s family.
i might sound like a cynic but find what she did in antigua then you will understand the cause for rage even though i am not condoning her murder but some people can’t handle the truth
Just be careful that ’cause’ does not mean justification.
Birdman ah true king dat is
More powa and strength
“Keep it “LIT”
Empress if that’s you in the little square’ You look beautiful,
I can’t see it too clear, but you look like a woman name “Viola”
The candle is “LIT” when it out I’m ready to meet my maker.
Love is a two way street, and you have to look in each other eyes everyday,
You have to touch, and hold hands every day .You have to hug and embrace each other everyday, you have to have a picnic while eating, and another thing is, I feel bad, if my wife is cooking and I am watching TV,
. So I’m also in the kitchen, It’s one long “DATE” we are on.I cant only want her for sex, I have to want her for who she is, And it is BETTER, and Fulfilling that way.
Because you are both EQUAL.
God made woman for man, Why would we want to destroy them.
God made woman for our love and comfort, Why would we want to kill them
God made woman to bear our children, to endure 9 months of pain, for our
“FEW MINUTES OF PLEASURE”
We should learn to treat them like Queens, Work and put money on the table to feed and clothes them until they become adults,
We men should not say it’s the woman’s fault she got pregnant,
We should not be saying that it,s her child , she must take care of the child,
We have to get real, and be MEN
God Bless all Women.
You with this “keep it lit” people “like me” may misconstrue your meaning, in this case it looks like you are talking about smoking the dangerous drug cannabis sativa, and you do look like you smoke a lot of it too. please save me the explaination about the word ” looks”, or any other details. “keep it out”.

BIRDMAN69,your words bring water to my eye,i am in love with my husband for 27yrs now and i can tell you he never lift a finger on me ,and i pray to god that my son’s would take their father foot step………………….once again condolances to the thorne family.
Can somebody please tell me what the hell is a fine spin.
Is that all that bothers you in this report? You got to be kidding!
Me too gtbeat. And is a ‘fat spin’ the opposite? Not to malign the deceased (God Rest Her Soul) but she sure worked in a lot of countries. Maybe ‘fine spin’ is associated with bars and clubs. Maybe young girls should be educated on this spinning thing cos it might be dangerous.
Thanks to all of you for the kind words.
You got me there, I cant help you, I also would like to know ,What is a fine spin.?
Thanks Mr moderator, you’re OK in my book.
Birdman…..maximum respect!
