A Laventille man has been freed of murdering a fellow resident in 2009 after the State’s main witness admitted he had lied.
Ashton “Doi Doi” Medina spent more than 16 years on remand before he was found not guilty of murder, attempted murder, and shooting with intent at the end of his judge-alone trial before Justice Trevor Jones earlier this week.
Medina was accused of murdering 20-year-old Kenroy Joseph on April 26, 2009. Joseph, of Prizgar Lands, Laventille, was driving his car in Success Village when a gunman opened fire on him.
