No bail for man charged with ‘Savage’ murder
A Georgetown man, whose lawyer requested bail on the same premise as the historic Antonique Thomas ruling, was denied bail after he allegedly shot a man to death.
Rhyse Henry appeared at the Serious Offences Court before Chief Magistrate Colin John yesterday, August 6,2026 where he was charged that on August 1, 2026, at Dickson Village, Georgetown, he with malice aforethought caused the death of Clydon Cato of Georgetown by an unlawful act.
While the matter was laid indictably, lawyer Grant Connell, sought to take a page from the book of the legal team that represented Antonique Thomas, who was recently granted a historic EC$25,000 bail for murder by High Court Judge, Justice Gertel Thom at the High Court on July 23, 2026.
Police investigative reports in Thomas’ case revealed that the 16-year-old allegedly struck 65-year-old Winston McMillan on the head with a two-by-four piece of wood during a physical altercation.
