Lovelace’s wife and mother of three, Marilyn Thomas was in shock yesterday over the murder in which the suspect is a 36-year-old man from Diego Martin who is assisting the Tobago police in their investigations. The kitchen knife used during the attack was later found by police on the ground of the rental apartment Lovelace shared with Thomas at Bacolet.
Thomas, who also has a son with the 36-year-old suspect, said the man entered the Bacolet apartment unannounced.
Speaking from a relative’s home in Signal Hill, Thomas, who was also injured during the attack, said, “He just came upon us unexpected, my door was opened. He just walked inside and take up a knife and just start to do what he had to do.”
