A High Court judge has freed a man of the murder of a policewoman and her family, which took place 18 years ago, while his co-accused remains charged with murder.
Justice Maria Busby Earle-Caddle agreed with the defence in a pre-trial hearing that the evidence the State had against the man was inadmissible. Zwadie Gomez, 39, was charged with Daniel Mendoza for the murders of WPC Elizabeth Sutherland, 47; her husband, Ivan Sutherland, 48; their daughter, Anika Sutherland, 23; and family friend Kevin Serrette.
