BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – AFTER his trial ended in a hung jury at the last criminal assizes, (May 2011), Devon Williams is once again before His Lordship Justice Errol Thomas and a new panel of jurors, for his charge of causing death by dangerous driving resulting in the death of Keith Brombill.
The trial began on Tuesday, Oct. 4 and the prosecution in the matter is now being led by Crown Counsel Garth Wilkin, while Williams is unrepresented.
According to the prosecution, Williams of Sandy Point, who also resides at St. Johnston Village, did hit Brombill on August 11, 2009 while driving on the Island’s Main Road in Sandy Point.
According to previous reports carried by this media house, Brombill was struck by a motorcar bearing registration number R173 which was first reported to be driven by Jevon Allen of Old Road.
Brombill was pronounced dead on the scene.
A total of 13 witnesses on behalf of the prosecution will give evidence in the matter.
Originally, all three persons in the vehicle were charged with causing death by dangerous driving. However, after the preliminary inquiry, the charges against Kelly and Allen were dropped.
Allen was allegedly seen driving the vehicle after the accident, and early police reports stated that the three men had fled the scene in the vehicle in an attempt to avoid the authorities.
