Samples were taken from the remains of school teacher Kescia Branche and the individuals who were detained for questioning over her death, according to Crime Chief (ag) Paul Williams, who says they will be sent overseas for DNA testing.
“There is a procedure we have to follow when it comes to the testing and when that’s complete it will be sent,” Williams said, while noting that the samples has not yet left for testing. Branche, 22, a mother of one and a teacher at Richard Ishmael Secondary School, was found on November 5th along Cemetery Road, obliquely opposite the cemetery office, sometime around 5 am.
She succumbed to her injuries on November 7th in the Intensive Care Unit of the Georgetown Public Hospital.
