Were they murdered?

To date, however, we have not heard anything further from the relevant authorities like the Police Service and Forensic Science Centre as to whether they were indeed homicides or deaths due to natural causes etc.

First, the dead body of Enrico Penco was found on February 1 somewhere in Macoya, Tunapuna.

Second, the decomposing body of a person was found in a house on February 7 in Cocorite.

Third, skeletal remains of someone were found on February 16 somewhere along the M2 Ring Road or in Debe. Fourth, on February 19, skeletal remains of someone were found in Tobago.

The public awaits further word on these as they impact on the number of murders for the year in our country.
