One day af­ter a brazen day­light shoot­ing at a Cou­va com­mu­nal play­park left a cou­ple dead, res­i­dents re­main trau­ma­tised and afraid to leave their homes. Blood­stains were still vis­i­ble on the grass and road at the play­park, and an eerie si­lence blan­ket­ed the com­mu­ni­ty at Jade Court when Guardian Me­dia vis­it­ed yes­ter­day. A foot­ball and a lol­lipop on the play­ground were stark re­minders of the ter­ror that un­fold­ed on Fri­day, when De­vaughn Tou­s­saint, 38, and his girl­friend, Amelia Her­nan­dez, 34, were killed.

The cou­ple share a three year old child.

The ruth­less killings, cap­tured on CCTV, have trig­gered na­tion­wide out­rage.
