Paraplegic to stand trial for murder

Trinidad and Tobago's Newsday: "REGEL QUASIE ALLICK, a 22-year-old paraplegic, was yesterday ordered by Chief Magistrate Sherman Mc Nicolls to stand trial for murder, despite a last ditch attempt by his attorney to have the charge reduced to manslaughter.

Sitting in the Eighth Court of the Port-of-Spain Magistrates’ Court, Mc Nicolls dismissed Allick’s attorney David West’s application for the charge to be reduced on the basis of diminished responsibility. Allick is charged with murdering businessman Damien So’Brien on May 16, 2008."
