Attorney Wendel Alexander is calling out what he describes as “an unacceptable silence” surrounding the long-delayed coroner’s inquest into the death of Jamaican national Chinlee Robinson, who died while in police custody in January 2025.
Robinson’s death, which was initially surrounded by uncertainty, later took a disturbing turn after a post-mortem confirmed that he died from anoxia, trauma to the neck, and cardiac failure injuries consistent with strangulation.
Alexander, who represents the family, says the prolonged delay has left them distressed and in the dark, accusing the authorities of failing to deliver transparency or justice in a case that “demands answers.”

I find I seeing too much of this man in the news. He not getting enough publicity as it is?
He like Pompey. only seeing all the wrings after the leave the service
What are you trying to say?
Honestly I had forgotten about that case until now. Another one gone to eternity without justice. Antigua Nice
If there’s nothing to hide, then why the delay? An inquest should have been held months ago.
I wonder how wendel can deal with all these cases without having a mental breakdown. Just thinking out loud
These delays always make people question the integrity of the system. The quicker the inquest, the more confidence the public will have.
What was expected?? This is Antigua and there’s no care unless you’re more like up there or know people up there. They released the young man who murdered Chinlee when by rights, given they were in the same cell, they should’ve held the young man until the post mortem came back.
This could all be a paid killing and that’s why the young man was released. You charge a man because of a cell phone, and then kept him in prison because of a missing passport now his only freedom and flight is to eternity……. Considering the young man was released and the police has no trace of him, what happens next?
You are the reason why i dont trust the police sir/ man
If he was the child of the AG or the PM or a Mansoor or a Hadeed inquest would be finished
I hope that by recieves justice…because no one else is recieving any
Its about time some family in this country get justice for their loved ones
