Trinidad: Man, wife, teen son killed execution-style

11 September 2024 - 15:44

Three people–a man, his wife and teenage son–were executed on Monday night in Petit Valley, Trinidad after they allegedly refused to disclose the whereabouts of their second son, who was believed to be the target.

Marlon Lee, 41; his common-law wife, Salina Rodriguez, 34; and his son Maleek Lee, 17, were all shot multiple times by armed assailants around 9.36 pm at their home at Sita Trace, off Upper Pioneer Drive.

Approximately 30 9 mm spent shell casings along with two live rounds of 9 mm ammunition and one deformed projectile were recovered at the scene.

Police confirmed “it was an execution-style killing,” and attributed the murders to gang violence.

However senior police officials were unable to verify a theory that the killings were meant to send a message to Lee’s remaining offspring, a teenage boy, who allegedly issued threats to a reported gang leader in the area.

The three victims were reportedly asleep inside the modest board house, located off the main track, when Maleek came out to use the toilet. It was believed he was ambushed and killed first, and that the gunshots alerted the adults inside.
