(L-R) Deceased Robert Dyer & Accused Dayneri Ferrer Vincent-Urlwin
A decision on whether to continue prosecution in the fatal traffic accident involving Police Constable Robert Dyer will be rendered on May 27, when Magistrate Dexter Wason rules on a dismissal motion filed by the defense.
Legal representatives for Dayneri Ferrer Vincent-Urlwin presented arguments this past Monday seeking to terminate proceedings in the death by dangerous driving case.
The case stems from a September 4, 2023 collision that occurred at approximately 11:20am on Sir Sydney Walling Highway. According to reports, Constable Dyer was riding his motorcycle eastbound to westbound when he struck a Jeep Wrangler.
The Jeep, allegedly operated by Vincent-Urlwin, was traveling in the opposite direction and attempting to execute a right turn into Luna Park at the time of impact. Reports indicate Dyer had just completed overtaking several vehicles before the collision occurred. Medical authorities pronounced him deceased at approximately 12:45pm.
Following initial station bail granted after her arrest, Vincent-Urlwin’s release terms were modified during her October 2023 court appearance before Magistrate Wason. The revised conditions established a $50,000 bond requiring an $8,000 cash component, mandated the surrender of travel documentation, required two sureties, established thrice-weekly police reporting requirements, and imposed a suspension of her driving privileges.
Vincent-Urlwin remains on bail awaiting the court’s decision. Should the magistrate reject the defense motion, the matter would proceed toward trial in the High Court. A favorable ruling for the defense would effectively terminate the prosecution.
Once she was following proper procedure and he did not have on his sirens I would say he was at fault
I believe he is at fault. It is rumoured that he loved to zoom in and out of traffic without his siren on.
Sorry for his loss, but he hit her causing the accident and his own demise and she’s on trial? Make it make sense. Dismiss di case!!!
Why is there always a deliberate effort to protect a certain calibre of people? I will never understand it
Let the lady go. It was an accident!!!
People always believe they know when they don’t. All the comments are sickening. Comment when u have facts and stop commenting based on hesrssy
Well if you know something share something. Cause witness said what they had to say.
Heard he was speeding his way to his grave and now the lady is here trying to defend herself. Lemme ask. What about the medical students? Is it because the accused has a person in the law he has not been charged? But this lady is accused and framed for cause the death of a police officer who was speeding? Riding his bike all the way to his death and she’s on trial. Wow. That tells a lot about the justice system in Antigua
I wasn’t a witness so I don’t know what to say. May justice (what ever it looks like) br served
People let it go. It was an accident
