THE WOMAN WHOSE husband was allegedly gunned down by policeman Everton Gittens just over a year ago is devastated by calls for him to be released on bail.
To make matters worse, Marleen Knight said, she and her son Junior Knight, who suffered a gunshot injury, would be very uncomfortable if Gittens was granted bail and returned to live in the same community.
Her response followed comments Wednesday by Attorney General Adriel Brathwaite and president of the Barbados Police Association, Constable Mervin Grace, who both called for Gittens to be released on bail.
Gittens, a constable, has spent the last year on remand at HMP Dodds charged with murdering Selwyn “Blues” Knight and shooting Junior on March 15, 2015, while off duty. (RB)
