THE preliminary inquiry against Sedley Liverpool called ‘Birdman’, who is charged for the murder of Terrence Lanferman, who was gunned down at his Mocha, East Bank Demerara home concluded on Monday before City Magistrate Fabayo Azore.

Liverpool, a pork knocker was charged for killing 23-year- old Terrence Lanferman on June 01, 2015 at his Nelson Street, Mocha Arcadia, East Bank Demerara home. Liverpool will go on trial before a judge and jury at the High Court.

In 2017, Kenkassie Lynch, of Eccles, East Bank Demerara, the cousin of Liverpool was committed to the High Court for the same offence.

According to reports the shooting was part of a feud between ‘Birdman’ and Lanferman but Lynch reportedly admitted that he alone carried out the shooting.
On the day in question, Lynch allegedly returned to Mocha and met his cousin, Liverpool after which he visited Nelson Street, located in the same community, to conduct surveillance on Lanferman’s house, which is located in the bottom flat of a two-storey building.

Lynch then returned to Liverpool’s house, and at around 19.00 hours, the cousin allegedly gave him a handgun. The two headed back to Nelson Street on a CG motorcycle.
While Liverpool waited in a nearby street, Lynch allegedly went to Lanferman’s residence and knocked on the front door. Lanferman opened his front door to greet his visitor, only to be confronted by the gunman.
