A MALABAR man has pleaded guilty to the 2010 murder of an elderly pensioner in Arima.

Keston Liverpool appeared before Justice Hayden St Clair-Douglas on March 5, where he pleaded guilty to felony murder—a charge that does not carry the automatic death sentence.

Liverpool had been in plea discussions with the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), who agreed to the deal suggested by his attorneys Michelle Gonzales and Ayanna Norville-Modeste of the Public Defenders’ Department.
