The funeral of 21-year-old murder victim Isaiah Thomas on Monday focused on Thomas s bright future, cut short by violence.
Thomas, who lived in Lambeau, was found floating in water near the Lambeau bridge on February 27. He was reported missing a few days earlier.
An autopsy determined that he died from chop wounds to his head and neck and water was found in his lungs.
Two held for Lambeau murder

Watson Duke, would-be prime minister of Tobago, held a news conference recently. Not for the first time with this high-profile personality from the sister isle, things did not exactly go swimmingly.
I say ‘sister isle’ but for how much longer, I wonder. Trinidad and Tobago remains one country but that’s just for now. That could change at the drop of a hat or, if Duke has his way, at the toss of a coin.

Anyway, the PDP political leader boasted that he is ‘good with words’. A sentence or two later, he was talking about his people not being prepared to surrender to Trinidadian ‘auto-CRA-cy’.
