A senior police officer in Antigua and Barbuda has expressed frustration after her court case was postponed once more.

Tulip Horsford, a veteran of the Royal Police Force for over 20 years, left the courtroom visibly upset after proceedings were adjourned until 10 June. The case stems from a fatal accident on 18 May 2023 on All Saints Road, which claimed the life of 18-year-old Keane Gregoire.

Horsford’s daughter, La-Shanti Cooper, was allegedly behind the wheel of a Toyota BB when the vehicle crashed. Police say she was speeding when she lost control, veering off the road and colliding with a column. Cooper, then 19 and holding only a learner’s permit, initially denied driving. She later faced multiple charges, including causing death by dangerous driving and driving without a licence or insurance.

Horsford was charged separately for permitting her daughter to drive without insurance. The case has faced repeated delays, prolonging the wait for justice.

  1. She have some nerve to be angry when another mother is without her son.,your status as a police officer only show you should’ve known better and deserve to be punished and your daughter should be in jail awaiting her punishment.

  2. By the way, Commissioner(ag.),i
    1)s it true that SINBAD GELLIZEAU has been released,without charge from Police custody?
    2) is it true that the residents of both Glanvilles and Seatons have vehemently voiced their opposition̈ to this suspected accomplice to murder living among them, and so close to infant, primary and secondary schools in the area?
    3) is it true that “SIN” is related to an infamous Opposition political figure who resides in the area?
    4) Is it true that Chantel’s parading as a majorette in last year’s ABLP Labour Day parade placed her case on the back burner and hence the inexplicable reason(s) for SIN’S release?
    WHERE IS SINBAD “SIN” GELLIZEAU right now?
