Home News Attempted murder accused slapped with more charges
A 26-year-old woman, who is no stranger to the court, was on Friday further remanded to prison by Magistrate Leron Daly on two charges – assault and threatening language – when she appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
Lisa Bobb of Royal Drive, Campbellville, Georgetown, denied both charges.
The court heard that on June 6, 2018, while being a prisoner at the East La Penitence Police Station, she unlawfully and maliciously wounded another female inmate, Cydella Blair.
A second charge stated that on June 4, 2018, while being in custody at the said Police station, she used threatening language to Blair.
Police Prosecutor Gordon Mansfield objected to bail being granted in this matter since the accused is incarcerated for an attempted murder among other charges that are pending.
Magistrate Daly agreed with the prosecution and remanded the woman to prison.
However, Blair was also charged with assaulting and using threatening language against Bobb.
She pleaded not guilty to the charges and was released on $30,000 bail.
The matter is expected to continue on June 11.
Bobb was charged for wounding her cousin, Christel Bobb with intent to commit murder.
The court heard that the Virtual Complainant, Christel Bobb, and Lisa Bobb are cousins who have reportedly had several misunderstandings in the past.
On February 14, 2018, at Royal Drive, Campbellville, Christel had just returned home when she was allegedly pounced upon by Lisa, who dealt her a stab to her upper left arm. This attack reportedly stemmed from a misunderstanding the cousins had the previous night.
Christel was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital where she was admitted a patient. On her previous appearance in court, Lisa Bobb had been sent to be mentally evaluated.
