A Cane Garden woman is in hospital nursing injuries to her mouth, reportedly inflicted with a hammer, and chop wounds sustained during an attack allegedly by a former lover on Thursday.

The woman, Monique Hutchins, 45, was attacked in the East Kingstown community even as she is recovering from two broken arms, sustained during an attack allegedly by the same man a month earlier, her daughter told iWitness News.

Anika Hutchins, who lives in Canada, told iWitness News, on Thursday, that her mother cannot speak as a result of the attack in which she lost several teeth, and which has left her with a swollen face.

  1. Jesus take the wheel! Lord alone knows why that man is still alive never mind in custody for questioning

  2. Young girl, you need to go home to see about your mother, cause lord knows, I would go all MADEA on his behind! Hot Gritts would have been the least of his worries! For Shame!

  3. Why is that person, was not arrested before?
    An attack happened to the same woman before and again!
    Is that attacker a officer of the law? It appeared that most of the crimes committed these days, allegedly to be law keepers in uniforms.

  4. This kind of abuse is too prevalent in St Vincent and the authorities thereare not serious. Too many women are victims of domestic abuse in my country and the police is pussyfooting. This has been going on for countless years. Mr Prime Minister, Mr Commissioner of Police, I hope when those women start to retaliate, you will still turn a blind eye…sickening

  6. Those criminals need to placed in a dungeon. For years, vincentian women have been used as punching bags and disfigured by their so called lovers. The authorities and the judiciary have been very lenient with those rats. The churches, the women’s group, the real so-called men are failing those vulnerable women. There are countless women out there, get somebody.

  7. Just recently a young man knock his St Vincent girlfriend unconscious with his hands.. Police lock him up for a few days then let him go without any charges.. This is why we heard of so many women dieing in relationship’s.. why would you let free an animal to go kill people children..

  8. Another COWARD posing as a man. I hope the lady recovers well and back to good health and strength.

    The COWARD needs to be dealt with to the fullest extent of the law!!!!

  9. This is the kind of things people should be rallying against. When will this end? Where is justice for this woman and all the other cases that just seemed to be swept under rug?

  10. HAMMERED AND BATTERED – SERIOUS QUESTIONS TO ANSWER

    Without a shadow of doubt, the ‘…Hammering’ was senseless and heartless.

    The ‘….Battering’ was most brutal and merciless.’

    This is certainly not the way to treat a woman or ‘…ex-lover,’ whether or not she may have jilted him or had uttered something that may have given him ‘…Dreams To Remember’ [You Tube: Otis Redding].

    If law enforcement personnel had really ‘…Neglected their Duty’ in the earlier ‘…grievous assault,’ then most certainly, ‘…Commissioner Colin John may have some ‘…Serious Questions’ to answer.

    Now the ‘…Hammer’ shall fall upon those who may have been guilty of ‘…Dereliction of Duty.’
