A mother of two was yesterday remanded after a court heard that she critically wounded a man with a pair of scissors.
Twenty-two-year-old Marie Walcott of East Ruimveldt, Georgetown was arraigned at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court yesterday before Magistrate Rhondell Weever.
She was not required to plead to the charge that stated that on January 23, at East Ruimveldt, she unlawfully and maliciously wounded Keishon Braithwaite also called Keishon Griffith.
She told the court that she is a cashier and has two children. The Police Prosecutor told the Court that Walcott used the scissors to stab the man in his chest. The injury has been reported as serious and he is in a critical condition. The Police Prosecutor said that the man is currently in the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
The Police Prosecutor objected to Walcott’s release on bail. She said that the offence is serious and she took into consideration that the man is still in the ICU.
Walcott was then remanded and the matter has been adjourned to February 21.
