Alicia Edmonson, 42, and her son, Malachi Kennedy, a 22-year-old Linesman, both residents of Perry Street, Tucville, Georgetown, were Monday charged for the murder of 36-year-old, Amaiziah Hohenkirk, a Labourer of Unity Place, Festival City, and Georgetown.
The mother and son appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court and were not required to enter a plea to the charge of murder. They were remanded to prison until May 7, 2024.
According to reports, at about 23:15 hrs Thursday, Alicia and another son, 24-year-old Darrel Kennedy had a misunderstanding with Hohenkirk over a damaged ‘speaker box.’
Around 6:50 hrs Friday, Alicia told Kennedy that Darrel abused her. Following the complaint, he went in search of Darrel but instead ran into Hohenkirk and another man identified as Sean.
Another argument ensued, leading them to Alicia’s residence.
During the confrontation there, Sean allegedly struck Alicia on her left wrist with a hockey stick. She armed herself with a knife and stabbed Hohenkirk once in the abdomen and once on his left and right wrists.
Hohenkirk fled the scene with Sean, entered a motor vehicle, and proceeded to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC), where he succumbed to his injuries while receiving treatment.
