School stabbing death

The Richard Ishmael student who is accused of stabbing a 34-year-old woman to death in the school compound in December 2005 will soon known her fate.

The preliminary inquiry into the murder case is at present before Magistrate Oneidge Waldron-Allicock in the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court and it is now the defence’s turn to present its closing arguments. After this the magistrate would decide whether or not there is enough evidence for the case to go to the High Court before a judge and jury.

The case, however, which was scheduled for yesterday, was adjourned until February 12.

The teenager is alleged to have murdered Jacklyn ‘Jackie’ Levius on November 30, 2005.
