"Ghost's" Family Gets Ready For Burial With Trepidation
posted (January 10, 2013)
As we told you at the top of the newscast, post mortem examinations were conducted on three of the four Dean Street murder victims today. They were all stabbed to death, and Leonard Ghost Meyers got it the worst: his mother claims he was stabbed over 30 times. But for the Meyers family, they now have to bury their loved one - which they plan to do on Sunday in their home of Gales Point. But they say police have already given them a warning - this is how they explained it to us today:..

Area Resident
"They say that they will meet us through the coastal road. We won't have peace in burying our loved one?"

Monica Bodden
"That's what you guys heard?"

Area Resident
"Yes that they will meet us through the coastal road. Can't we have any peace since they had already messed up everything and now they are dealing with us like this. We are getting enough of this, we are grieving."

Betty Welch - Mother of Leonard Meyers
"I am ready for anything because this result here I am not satisfied with because it's a lie."

And tonight the area of Western Dean Street from West Canal, though Plues, George and right up to West Street remain cordoned off by police - closed to vehicular traffic - and swarming with police and BDF.
