Sophia woman brutally killed by boyfriend in front of son

…stabbed 22 times – Police

A mother of two who attempted to end her rocky relationship of just four months was stabbed some 22 times by her boyfriend, in the presence of her young son at their Lot 604, ‘C’ Field Sophia, Greater Georgetown home.
According to Police, the incident occurred at around 03:00h on Wednesday, and Lisa George, a 31-year-old security guard employed at Atlas Security, is dead. George’s two children: a 12-year-old son and a six-year-old daughter, resided with her in Sophia. According to reports, the victim’s 12-year-old son, who was at home when the incident occurred, was awakened by his mother screaming, and ventured into her bedroom, where he saw his mother lying on her back on the bed in a pool of blood.

According to the traumatised 12-year-old boy, the 23-year-old suspect was on top of his mother at the time of the discovery, continuously stabbing her about her body with a knife.
At the said time, the victim’s sister, Lovern George, who lives next door, rushed over at the sound of her screams, and entered the house after her 12-year-old nephew ran to open the door. Lovern’s husband accompanied her into the bedroom, and immediately wrestled the knives away from the assailant.
Speaking with Guyana Times, the victim’s mother, 55-year-old Yonette George, shared that when her son-in-law rushed over to the scene, he saw the knife in the suspect’s hand, and he took it away. However, he did not realize that the man had another one in his possession, which he reached for to continue the gruesome act.
She added that the 6-year-old daughter of the deceased was also on the bed with her mother at the time.
“When he came over, he saw the guy with the knife in his hand, and he pull it away from [him]. When he take away the knife, he didn’t realize he had a second knife in [his] waist, and he pull out the one from he waist and he was about to continue and the guy manhandle him and took it away. At the time, she already had multiple stab wounds,” the distraught mother shared as tears came to her eyes.
According to Lisa’s cousin Beverley Solomon, while her cousin had never confided in her about any concern for her safety in the relationship, she did uncover unpleasant things about the suspect, and had told him she no longer wanted the relationship. She shared that at that time she just wants justice for Lisa.
“Within that relationship, she found out something…about the young man and she decided that she didn’t want to be in that relationship any longer,” Solomon disclosed.

However, according to Lovern, her sister was fearful for her life after the suspect began talking about guns and started making other nasty remarks.
“Because he keep talking about guns and what he have and how she never see the [other] side of he and different things,” the devastated sister shared.
As she broke down in tears, Lovern added, “He didn’t had to kill [her] even if the relationship [wasn’t] working. He could have leave, he didn’t have to take she life, she had two children. He start jook my sister in she sleep.”
Lisa was described as a very loving, caring and humble woman, who was family-oriented and always there for those in need. She was also an exceptional mother who always had the best interest of her children at heart and would work hard to provide for them.
The news of the murder broke several friends and family members to share their grief on social media and express hopes that justice would be delivered to the family.
