Twenty-two-year-old Marlon Garrett now awaits sentencing after admitting yesterday morning to the 2017 killing of vagrant Omesh Chateram, who he stabbed at Bourda Market.

The man had been originally indicted for murder, but threw himself at the mercy of the Court, pleading guilty to the lesser offence of manslaughter at his arraignment yesterday.

Garrett accepted the charge which stated that on September 11th, 2016, at Robb and Bourda streets, Georgetown he unlawfully killed the then unidentified man.
