A six-year-old boy watched helplessly as his mother was brutally stabbed to death on Friday evening by his stepfather, who accused her of being unfaithful.
The dead woman has been identified as Tacina Dazzle, 28, a housewife of Lot 46 Ujamma Housing Scheme, La Bonne Intention (LBI), East Coast Demerara (ECD).
Thirty-six-year-old Quincy Roache, a businessman who subsequently confessed to the crime, remains in Police custody.
According to Police reports, Dazzle and the suspect shared a common law relationship and would often have domestic issues. However, the now deceased woman never made any reports to the Police regarding this.
However, on the day in question at about 23:40h, the deceased cousin who was at her neighbour’s house was awakened by loud screams coming from Dazzle.
As such, the cousin immediately opened the door and saw Dazzle running out of her yard and onto a bridge where she collapsed and remained motionless.
Soon after the accused exited the house, went to his minibus, and shouted: “Now y’all can call the Police, I done do what I had to do.”
He then entered the minibus and drove off. The injured mother of one was picked up and taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital where she was pronounced dead. The body was examined and at least 13 stab wounds were seen.
The suspect later went to the Turkeyen Police Station where he confessed to killing his fiancé. He was then taken to the Sparendaam Police Station where he told investigators that he went through the deceased’s mobile phone and saw that she was conversing with another male.
