A 14 year old boy appeared before a magistrate in San Fernando on Monday July 25 to answer a charge of murder.
The boy was arrested last Tuesday in connection with the murder of O’Brien George, 49, who was beaten to death on March 3.
On that day, George was accosted by four persons as he walked to his home at Springvale Avenue, Taradale, Ste Madeleine, according to police reports. He was beaten to death. Police reported the motive for the attack was robbery.
The boy is one of several persons arrested and charged for the killing, but only the 14-year-old appeared in court yesterday.
The boy was kept at the homicide office in the San Fernando Police Station, before he was taken to the San Fernando Magistrates’ Court. A policeman then escorted the boy before Chief Magistrate Marcia Ayers-Caesar.
The magistrate then read the charge against the boy that on March 3, 2011, at Taradale Gardens, Ste Madeleine, he murdered O’Brien George. The charge was laid indictably.
Ayers-Caesar asked the boy’s mother whether she was seeking the services of an attorney, and she replied: “Yes ma’am.”
The magistrate remanded the accused to the St Michael’s Home for Boys in Diego Martin to reappear on August 2. Another person has been charged with George’s murder.
