Suspect linked to more deaths

PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad – The person who murdered Diane Williams and her ten-year-old son Shaquille Morgan, and sawed their bodies into pieces, may have been responsible for several other deaths in San Fernando.Investigators have described the suspect as a “serial killer” who found unusual methods to dispose of his victims.The search continued on Sunday for the suspect who was released from prison two months ago.Williams, who was described as a caring mother, promised her dead husband to shelter the man until he could find his own home, her relatives said. But her kindness might have caused her death, relatives said, as the man refused to leave her home.She and her son lived in a house at Tarodale Heights, Ste Madeleine. “She wanted the man to leave her house. He used to eat out all her groceries and when he buy anything he would hide it. She was a hustler, who tried to provide for her son,” a relative who did not want to be identified said.Williams and her son were diagnosed with a terminal illness. They were weak and frail, relatives said. Police believe the suspect is a man wanted in connection with the murders of 49-year-old Rudolph Sammy and Peter Samaroo in November 2005. Their decomposing bodies were found in old barrels in bushes at Skinner Street, Mon Repos.The men lived in adjacent apartments in the same building. Police believe that Samaroo, a painter, and Sammy, a San Fernando City Corporation worker, were killed on the same day and an attempt made to conceal their bodies in water barrels.“This man is a demon. No one can kill someone like that. He cut up their bodies and ripped out her insides. A person cannot watch another human being and do something like that. We are afraid for our own lives because he might come for her family too,” her cousin said.After they were stabbed to death, the mother and son were cut into pieces with a power tool, police said. The woman’s body was severed at the hips and knees.Last Wednesday scavengers at the Forres Park Landfill at Claxton Bay found the body parts wrapped in black plastic bags.The two heads, the woman’s left arm and the boy’s right leg were missing. It was the trace of the registration number plate on a white Kia van that helped police crack the case.The vehicle was identified as one that went to the dump the evening before. Five men were seen dumping bags from the vehicle. The registered owner of the van was questioned by police and released. Their investigations led officers to a house along the Old Train Line at Ste Madeleine where police found the two heads and the remaining limbs buried in the dirt. (Trinidad Express)
