After two previous trials ended in hung juries, a third sealed the fate of Cyon Collier, called ‘Picture Boy,’ who was yesterday sentenced to death by hanging for the 2006 murders of Victoria brothers Ray Walcott and Carl Andrews, after jurors returned unanimous guilty verdicts.
Collier’s fate was read to him by Justice Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, after the 12-member jury had deliberated for some three hours. The case was prosecuted by Narissa Leander and Tuanna Hardy.
“Thank you, Jesus!” a relative of the deceased declared from the back of the court, after the declaration of the verdicts.
