Champagnie blasts 10-yr wait for trial in cop-killing case

King’s Counsel Peter Champagnie has blasted the more than decade-long delay in bringing three men accused of murdering police Corporal Judith Williams to trial, saying it is “simply unacceptable” for accused persons to remain in custody for over 10 years before trial. Police Constable Gladstone Williams, Rohan Smith and Jessie ‘Pops’ Anderson have spent more than a decade in custody awaiting trial in the 2016 murder of Corporal Judith Williams.
