Murderer gets less than 7 years for cutting wife’s throat

Lennox Da Silva outside the Magistrate’s Court

St Vincent native Lennox Da Silva has been slapped with a six-and-a-half year prison sentence for killing his wife at their Greenland apartment roughly two years ago.

His sentence is to take effect on the date he was first placed on remand.

“You have brought pain and anguish to the family … But, you have shown remorse, and I wish you well,” Justice Ann-Marie Smith said after handing down the sentence on Friday.

The court said the murder was aggravated by the fact that it took place in the presence of children. She said the crime was further aggravated by the use of a murder weapon and the fact that the offender made attempts to leave the crime scene before police arrived.

On the other hand, the court said the fact that Da Silva took responsibility for the offence, his ‘exemplary behaviour’ while on remand, his show of remorse, his no previous convictions and his early guilty plea were mitigating factors that worked to his benefit

The court said it also noted that the offender was ‘provoked by the victim’.

Impact statement

An impact statement written by the victim’s older sister, who is now the caretaker of the deceased woman’s children, said the youngsters are still affected by the grisly murder.

The court heard that the victim’s daughter has been recounting the events while the son refuses to speak about it, the statement reportedly said.

Model inmate

In the meantime, a report from Her Majesty’s Prison indicates that Da Silva is an exemplary inmate with good conduct.

The court heard that he acts as a mentor for other prisoners and is currently a bass guitarist at the penitentiary.

He is also involved in church.

Incident affected him too

And according to psychiatrist Dr June Samuel’s report of the offender, Da Silva was also affected by the incident.

The report, Justice Smith said, indicated that he had flashbacks, suffered from anxiety, and had difficulty sleeping.

She cheated on me

Meanwhile, the court heard that after cutting his wife’s throat, Da Silva reportedly told his nextdoor neighbour that his slain wife was unfaithful.

“Man, she got pregnant for someone else and got an abortion,” he reportedly said.

The court heard that Da Silva further told his neighbour that his late wife was sexually involved with two other men so he followed her to Pockwood Pond and witnessed her unfaithfulness on the night in question.

When she came home, she was reportedly peeved that he had followed her and started packing her bags to leave him, the court heard.

An argument ensued between the two, and she reportedly told him that gunmen should have killed him in Jamaica, referring to an incident which took place while they were in her home country.

Reports are that a gunman had shot Da Silva multiple times at her family’s residence in the Old Pasley area of Palmers Cross, Clarendon.

That incident was labelled as a robbery at the time.

“I felt like an evil spirit came over me … I saw black,” Da Silva said while recalling the night of the murder.

The offender killed his wife Sherika Nelson-Da Silva on Saturday, June 10, 2017.

    I don’t doubt you. Where there is wickedness, the demons abound. All have to suffer the consequences of our evil actions. Some of us are currently align with wicked spirits with a pretext of being happy. But they know that their outcome will be a devastating one. How devastating though is the question.

    This sentence is a travesty of justice. The BVI has become a place whereby you can commit the most heinous of crime including murder and get a slap on the wrist. It appears to me that anyone can commit the worst of crime, and somehow there are those among us who will justify their criminal behavior.

    What people need to realize is that today for me, tomorrow for you. The same justice system that fails one person, is the same justice system that will fail to give you justice should the need arises.

    7 years in prison for killing someone is just outrageous, and it’s just shocking to me that a female magistrate who is a mother would give such a sentence.

    Not only that, she appears to be sympathetic to the criminal:

    “You have brought pain and anguish to the family … But, you have shown remorse, and I wish you well,” Justice Ann-Marie Smith”

    What judge in their right mind wishes a murderer well? Something is wrong with that picture. In my opinion, the magistrates sympathies are in the wrong place, and I question her ability to remain on the bench, make impartial judgments, and leave her emotions behind.

    Whenever this guy gets out, and should he commit a similar crime, we can all look back to this sentence as the root cause.

    Who gives a flying cow if this murderer is “a model inmate”, or if his wife allegedly cheated on him? There is something called divorce. If things are not working out, that’s an option. Killing her is extreme and should not be condoned or made light of by the state.

    No one has a right to kill anyone, and I find it troubling that people tend to find justification and sympathies with criminals such as this guy.

    The system is broken and needs to be fixed, and part of this dysfunction lies with these magistrates on the courts. Some of these magistrates quite frankly need to be removed from their positions.

    As for the notion that this heinous crime affect him too, should we as a public feel sympathy for him for committing this crime? He ought to to be affected by it as no normal person kills another.

    The murderer claims he “.. felt like an evil spirit came over me … (and) saw black,”.

    He felt that way simply because he IS evil.

    Keep it up BVI. The world is watching, and the picture that comes out of these islands is not a good one, and will impact each and everyone of this country in due time. Keep it up.

    We are a society that has become very tolerant of crime and criminals, and that is never a good thing. Our judicial system is simply weak and a fosters a breeding ground for criminals. This is a killers’s paradise imo. No one can expect fair justice in this environment…no one.

    In the words of Justice Ann-Marie Smith: “I wish you well.”

    This is a very disturbing case and sentence. I guess not knowing all the facts one should not judge. But the justice system needs to wakeup.

    There have been a number of men including in this country who have gone through h**l with women and chose to walk away sometimes loosing everything and have to start over.

    Although it may be hard to accept when a woman dont want you, you just have to move on especially if you feel that she has intentionally put your life in danger, then leave her alone.

    Make it worst if she is playing cat and mouse. But you dont have a right to kill her especially in front of her kids.

    But if one was to make a judgement you would say the problem was that he was weak.

    But life is never straight forward especially looking at someone’s else situation from the outside looking in.

      This is indeed absurd. There are people in prison serving more time than this man received for murder and they did not kill anyone. Having an illegal firearm and using it should carry two different penalties. This dude used a weapon to kill someone and got a slap on the wrist.

      How many married men carry on affairs with multiple women and they do not meet the same faith so why in the h**l he was seeing black when this happen to him. He did the same thing to his f***t w*** and she did not kill him. She left him to God, but it is true that karma is a b***h. He should have gotten the maximum sentence.

    Another poster (@So ok) said, “THE MAN SNAPPED!!! What would you have done? Walk away???”

    My answer is YES, I would have walked away. I would have left her. The fact that he “snapped” and committed murder in front of their children indicates that he is incapable of controlling his temper and is prone to violence. The fact that you seem to think he was justified, is equally concerning!

    Was he such a fool to get robbed and all of that and then went straight back for her in Jamaica and married to her? What was so sweet? He should have learned his lesson and move on. Is he the only man that got cheat on , if everyone who get cheated on including me should snap what a world we would live in.

    Wrong witness statement ” caretaker of the deceased woman’s children, said the youngsters are still affected by the grisly murder.”

    As far as the story the deceased only had 1 child a daughter. The other child is not the deceased child but a child of dasilva from a previous marriage. And that child of dasilva is not living with her. How can she witness such and it is not truth.

    Since he used the defence that he lost his mind and saw black, I guess I will use the defense that I saw red when I chop up my cheating husband and his side piece. It is only a matter of time I pull up to the location they meet up at every Wednesday and Friday nights. What they don’t know is I had a tiny camera put in my husband car,no audio but video and I see everything.Okay now keep playing me.

  49. OMG says:

    It doesn’t matter if he becomes a preacher, priest, rabbi, etc, etc. He is wicked. How could a human being slit the woman’s throat in front of her children? And just look at that smirk on his wicked face!

      As per law, if my memory serves me best, 3 months in prison qualifies for deportation. Despite his slap on his wrist, he will be deported back to St.Vincent, no question.

      By the way, for those who think speaking out against this murderer is a slight against all Vincentians, please know that many of us do not share that view.

      There is good and bad in all cultures. One murdering Vincentian should not taint all Vencentians. I personally have many Vincy friends, and I know them to be good law abiding people.

      Lasty, since you have been away for quite some time, I am sure you may recall a period in our home when these kinds of crimes were unheard of.

      What do you think of the state of our country at this moment in time looking at this from afar?

  51. Think about it. says:

    So he was provoked by her cheating and setting him up to be killed, which is probably why he got a short sentence.However, they need to make it where Vincy people need to have a Visa to enter the Bvi becathis is ridiculous tho. The majority of gruesome crimes that occur in the Bvi are by Vincy people.They act like they’re uncivilized for real.

  52. God is good says:

    Only God Knows. He have no right to kill her. But God said if we come boldly to him and confess our sins, he’s faith and just to forgives us. Sin is sin. You tell a lie is sin you kill is sin. You call this second chance. God is ever merciful. No one knows this man hear, only God. Thats why he got this less sentence he didnt get away, hes doing his penitalty. But it just not a long long.
