Justice Navindra Singh yesterday sentenced Sitaffa Joseph and Rickford Marcus to life imprisonment for the October 2020 murder of Seon London.
The sentencing came after an emotional hearing in the High Court in Georgetown.
Defence attorney Leslie Sobers argued that the pre-sentencing reports were inadequate, noting that his clients had not undergone psychiatric evaluations. Sobers said that Joseph was under the influence of psychotropic substances at the time of the killing, impairing his judgement. He also highlighted that Marcus had completed anger management courses in prison and expressed remorse for his role in the crime.
