The mother of Nursing Assistant Schenise Apple believes that the investigation surrounding her death was at a standstill for months and was only recently fast-tracked after a new detective took over the case.
“To me it was at standstill, like nothing didn’t do before. Everyone was saying things was being done but nothing was done,” Shonette Apple yesterday told Stabroek News.
Apple said she was aware that the file was initially sent for legal advice last year. The latest update, she said she received was about two weeks ago after she was approached by the police for a statement for the first time since Schenise death.
