COME Tuesday, May 24, Justice Jo-Ann Barlow is expected to sum up the evidence in the trial of Donell Trapp, also called ‘Short Man’, who is accused of the 2016 murder of 60-year-old re-migrant agriculturist, Anthony Breedy.

Trapp, formerly of Timehri, East Bank Demerara (EBD), had pleaded not guilty, on Wednesday before last, to the indictment which read that he murdered Breedy between March 12 and 14, 2016 at Hill Foot, Soesdyke-Linden Highway.

Prosecutors, Lisa Cave and Latifah Elliott, are on record for the state, while Trapp is represented by attorneys-at-law, Dexter Smartt and Javon Cox.
On Thursday last, the prosecution and defence gave closing statements. Justice Barlow adjourned the matter to May 24 when she will make her summation.

Following that, the judge will hand over the case to a 12-member jury for consideration which will result in a verdict.
Based on reports, Breedy’s body was found, with hands and feet bound, on the lower flat of his two-storey house.

It was also reported that he sustained multiple injuries to his head.
It is believed that, after the act was committed, the perpetrators made off with his Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) and other belongings, including an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) card.
