The Royal Saint Lucia Police Force (RSLPF) is investigating the discovery of two decomposing bodies on September 27. The first body was that of a male which was found at about 6:00 am in a forested area in Garrand. The RSLPF says that the body “was in a advanced state of decomposition, with facial features unrecognizable.” The discovery was made “in an area with suspected marijuana plants and a firearm was recovered in the vicinity of the body.” The death is being investigated as a suspicious death, and a post mortem examination is scheduled for later this week.
The second discovery was made at about 9:00 am in Monchy, after the Gros Islet Police Station received a report of a death. “On arrival they noticed a decomposing body of a male within a residence. The body was examined by a pathologist on the scene. The residence is that of 76-year-old Edgar Delice, who is also believed to be the deceased.” The RSLPF indicated that a post mortem examination is also scheduled for later this week, at which point further details will be provided.
