Golden Grove murder: LBI woman remanded for killing reputed husband

A 30-year-old unemployed woman was on Friday remanded to prison for fatally stabbing her reputed husband during a domestic dispute at their Golden Grove, East Coast Demerara (ECD) home.

Aquiella Abrams of Onion Field, La Bonne Intention (LBI), ECD, appeared before Magistrate Fabayo Azore and was not required to plead to the capital offence, which stated that on October 10, 2022, at Lot 109 Sideline Dam, Golden Grove, ECD, she murdered 40-year-old Michael Wilson.
She was remanded to prison until November 30.
It was reported that Wilson was stabbed twice in his abdomen by Abrams.
According to the Police, the couple often had domestic disputes over allegations of infidelity levelled against the suspect by her reputed husband. This, according to Police, had previously led to physical and verbal abuse against the woman.
Investigators said during one of their arguments on Sunday, the woman told the man that she was ending their relationship and would be moving back into her parents’ home.

However, on the day in question, the couple had another argument as the woman was packing her belongings to move out of the house. Police said the man armed himself with a knife and assaulted the woman, causing her to receive injuries to her forearm.
The woman eventually succeeded in disarming Wilson and reportedly dealt him two stabs to his abdomen.
Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) were summoned and the man was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital where he died whilst receiving treatment.
