Four Grenada law enforcement officers were arrested and charged in connection with a prison escape that led to the fatal hijacking of a retired American couple's yacht.
Three Caribbean prison escapees, who allegedly killed an American couple, were placed in the wrong cells that were less secure, despite warnings they were dangerous and flight risks, the Grenada prime minister said this week. Ron Mitchell, 30, Trevon Robertson, 23, and Abita Stanislaus, 25, were supposed to be placed in individual jail cells that had a 'secure locking mechanism,' Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell said.
Despite the negligence and arrests, Mitchell expressed his support for law enforcement and said 'disrespecting the police will not be tolerated.' WATCH BLOODIED SUSPECT'S ARREST Authorities still have not found Hendry or Brandel's bodies in the 70-plus miles of water between the two islands. Last week, the suspects were returned to Grenada, where they were all charged with two counts of capital murder, escaping lawful custody, housebreaking, robbery and two counts of kidnapping.
