Defense Seeks Pause in Barima Murder Case | Guyana News
A high-stakes legal showdown looms over the MV Barima shipwreck murder case, as the defense seeks to halt proceedings with a dramatic “abuse of process” motion. Dr. Dexter Todd will argue that marine casualty investigations—not criminal court—should handle this case, citing past rulings and existing laws. The prosecution has until October 12th to respond, with a ruling expected by October 19th—a tight deadline that could reshape Guyana’s approach to maritime crime. With three defendants facing charges for killing passengers after the July 18th capsizing, uncertainty remains over whether all will join the defense push, while the magistrate aims to resolve everything by November’s end.
