Three men who had escaped from prison have been charged with capital murder in connection with the deaths of an American couple who disappeared in the Caribbean in February after their catamaran was hijacked.
The Royal Grenada Police Force announced Friday that Trevon Robertson, 23; Atiba Stanislaus, 25; and Ron Mitchell, 30, were re-arrested on two counts of capital murder in the slayings of Ralph Hendry and Kathleen Brandel.
Grenada police added that the trio have also been charged with escaping lawful custody, housebreaking, robbery and two counts of kidnapping. Additionally, Stanislaus was charged with one count of rape, police said.
The three men made their first court appearance Thursday and were remanded to Richmond Hill prison, also known as His Majesty’s prison. Their next court appearance has been scheduled for 27 March.
