Man convicted of double murder
A Supreme Court jury has unanimously convicted a man of double murder.
The jury accepted the contention of prosecutors that Jamaican Serrano Adderley shot Kevin Forbes, 40, of Miller's Heights, and Alwayne Leslie, 28, of Jamaica, on July 11, 2011 at a Haitian shantytown near Montgomery Avenue.
Adderley denied that he was present when the crime occurred.
The prosecution’s main witness, Shawn Knowles, placed Adderley on the scene.
Knowles is on bail, accused of the murder of Adderley’s pregnant girlfriend Erica Ward several weeks later.
Knowles and Timothy Saunders are charged with the July 30, 2011 shooting deaths of Edward Braynen, Ward, who was eight months pregnant, and Chackara Rahming at an apartment at Montgomery Avenue. Fetal homicide is not an offense under Bahamian law.
