Four couples bonded to keep peace after alleged Easter assaults

Four couples were on Tuesday bonded to keep the peace when they appeared in a city magistrate’s court to answer separate assault charges.

Christopher George and his wife Karen George, Melinda John and her partner Godfrey Lowe, Rawle Cappell and his wife Trisha Cappell, and Kevin Dickie and his common-law wife Latoya Tappin all made appearances in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court 10 before Magistrate Geeta Chandan-Edmond.

In some cases, indications had been made that at least one party did not wish to continue with the matter. However, Magistrate Chandan-Edmond insisted on proceeding with all of the domestic violence charges. In the case of the Georges, both parties were charged with unlawfully assaulting each other on April 20
