A Jamaican-born man who is believed to have killed his partner and allegedly wounded her son with the intention to kill him, is expected to enter a plea next month.
Linsome Boyd, 54, was charged in March 2021 with the murder of Passport Division worker, 47-year-old Althea Henry, and severely injuring of her son, Tajma Francis, who was 21 at the time.
Henry’s body was discovered at her Cashew Hill home on the afternoon of 20 June, 2021 with what appeared to be multiple wounds.
Her son was rushed to the hospital with injuries to his upper body and left eye, allegedly received during an altercation with the accused.
The prosecution has mounted several pieces of evidence and has a list of more than 10 witnesses they could call should the Cashew Hill resident plead not guilty.
His arraignment is set to take place on 10 February.
