Murder rap for beheading act

Police in St Vincent and the Grenadines were on Wednesday charging with murder, a man accused of beheading a 21 year old woman on the island on Monday.

Hospital clerk Stacy Wilson was returning home from work when she was attacked and killed by a man travelling on the same bus with her.

Eyewitnesses say Sean Samuel, the man detained by police shortly after the slaying, beheaded Ms Wilson in front of horrified onlookers at a bus terminal in the Vincentian capital Kingstown.

Advances rebuffed

The police say both victim and attacker had been travelling on the same bus, and that the extremely brutal attack came after the young woman rebuffed advances made by the man said to be in his early thirties.

Deputy Police Commissioner Lenroy Brewster has confirmed that witnesses reported that the cutlass-wielding assailant pulled Stacy Wilson off the idling bus, cutting off her head after earlier chopping off her right hand at the wrist.

One reporter Glenford Prescott who arrived at the scene shortly after, said people there had tried to intervene, but in vain:

Attempts to stop the killing failed

"Persons made an attempt to try to stop the killing by throwing missiles at him, bottles and stones and other things like that. But he seemed bent on committing the act".

Mr Prescott said Samuel carried out the dastardly act despite being struck several times by those trying to restrain him.

Vincentian police confirmed that Sean Samuel has been in trouble with the law before, and was deported from the United States.

Deputy Commissioner Brewster said Samuel was also known as abdul Rahim, and was a muslim.

"He migrated to Trinidad and he was in the United States. We understand that he had some training, he was in Pakistan" Mr Brewster told BBC Caribbean.

As expected, the family of Stacy Wilson are devastated by her slaying.

Journalist Prescott said the media had tried to respect their privacy: "They are very distraught I can tell you".

And the police say, people who witnessed the killing remain traumatised.

This monster will burn.

Oh Jesus.

..........................jesus that is just too sad.

Oh, dear God...

Damn right this monster will brun.

This world is corrupted.

This is just utterly devestating...I feel so aweful for those who witnessed such a horrible crime; I also pray for the family of this young woman, as well as the family of the man that did such a horrific thing.

He truly deserves everything that will come to him...

Not to ruffle feathers, but should this sort of topic be allowed in this forum? I don't mean the topic itself, but the links to the images? I'm tempted to look at them, and I never am tempted by such morbid things. I wish the temptation would go away. I don't want to engage in a twisted thrill-seeking or bloodlust quality that enters someone's mind when this happens. I don't want this even to be trivialized or dumbed down or for it to become of mere shock value by posting the pictures of this event. No one needs to see them -- certainly not on a family-friendly site that doesn't even allow certain obsene words.

LoL.

I watched a video of Daniel Pearl being beheaded a few years ago on ConsumptionJunction.com, and I was scarred by it for weeks. I'll never forget his face... he's talking... you see he's alive and alert, and two seconds later he has no expression, his eyes have nothing in them... horrifying.

****jaw dropped to the ground****

That SOB deserves to rot.

And all those people and the families... what they must be going through. This freaking crazy!

Exactly my point. I say SON should ban this kind of content. Not discussion, but links to such content. They're not needed. They're gratuitous and sensational. They're negative.

I have no comment on this except that guy is just sick and wrong.....

how is that crowd of people just standing there looking at that?!

My guess is shock. I know I would be. Shocked and scared. The world is full of some crazy assed people. I hope he rots.

Regarding what Kenny said about Daniel Pearl, I saw Nick Berg being beheaded and it is still the scariest and most disturbing thing I have ever seen. It is just as horrifying beforehand. Even typing about it gives me shivers.

shock doesn't do it for me. Enough time had passed for police to arrive and put up tape. Now they're just gawkers!

Gross! And horribly sad!
