Man in court for woman’s murder

Taylor of Fanny Village, is alleged to have beaten Kelly Ann Clarke, 23, to death with a piece of wood last week Tuesday. He appeared in the First Court to answer the charge laid by Cpl Stephen Forbes, of the Homicide Bureau of Investigations (Region III). The accused was not called upon to plead and Magistrate Rambachan remanded Taylor, who was unrepresented by counsel, into police custody and adjourned the case to August 15.

Police found Clarke’s semi nude body between the Point Fortin Hardware and another building along the Guapo/Cap-de-Ville Road. An autopsy revealed she was beaten to death. Clarke, a mother of one, was from Warden Road in Point Fortin.
