A New Amsterdam woman, who was on the run after allegedly burning her husband with a pan of hot oil on the morning of January 30th, surrendered to police last Thursday.
A senior police source confirmed to Sunday Stabroek that after the woman surrendered at the New Amsterdam Police Station, in the company of her attorney. However, a senior officer in the division subsequently instructed that the woman, Sandy Thomas, 35, be released on $50,000 station bail. “She didn’t even make it into the lock ups and a man nearly lost his life,” the source said.
It is unclear whether any file is being prepared to be sent for legal advice in order to file charges against the woman.
Her husband, Devon Thomas, 38, a lecturer at the New Amsterdam Technical Institute, was rushed to the New Amsterdam Public Hospital, where he was admitted after sustaining serious burn injuries to his face, shoulders, and stomach.
The man was burned at the couple’s Lot 4 Garrison Road, New Amsterdam home.
This newspaper was told that Devon Thomas asked the woman to remove from their home but she refused. He had indicated his intention to divorce her. After the man reportedly told her that he had made up his mind about the divorce, she allegedly doused him with the hot oil.
