A teary-eyed mother of three who is accused of fatally stabbing her reputed husband was yesterday charged and remanded to prison for the offence.
Melissa Playter, 25, of 41 Prince William Street, Plaisance, East Coast Demerara, appeared before Magistrate Alisha George in the Sparendaam Magistrate’s Court where the murder charge was read to her.
Playter was not required to plead to the indictable offence which stated that on December 2, last, at 41 Prince William Street, Plaisance, East Coast Demerara, she murdered Victor Roberts, 38, her reputed husband.
She was remanded to prison by the Magistrate and is expected to make her next court appearance on January 17, 2019.
According to information on the day in question, Playter and Roberts had an argument at their residence when she became annoyed and stabbed Roberts, once, to the region of the heart with a knife.
Roberts fell to the ground and was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
The matter was then reported and Playter was arrested.
Neighbours told police that they did not pay much attention to the couple when they were arguing, since they often had arguments. It is unclear what caused the argument on the day in question.
