Almost two decades after her gruesome murder, Amy Emily Annamunthodo’s stepfather, Marlon King, wias ordered to face a third trial.

A San Fernando jury remained hung, unable to deliver a verdict after four hours of deliberations at the O’Meara Judicial Centre on September 23. King was before Justice Hayden St Clair-Douglas for his second trial.

In 2012, he was sentenced to hang by then-High Court judge Anthony Carmona after a jury returned a similar guilty verdict. On July 29, 2021, the Court of Appeal ordered a new trial after upholding King's appeal against conviction.
