NO BODY CAVITY SEARCH!
That was the emphatic evidence of Drug Squad officer Sirphine Carrington yesterday regarding Shanique Myrie’s claims, as the Caribbean Court of Justice concluded the evidentiary process of the Jamaican woman’s discrimination suit against the Barbados Government.
Providing testimony in a hushed No 1 Supreme Court, Carrington came under intense cross-examination by Myrie’s attorney Michelle A. Brown, but repeatedly denied that the 25-year-old first-time visitor to Barbados was ever taken to a bathroom at the Grantley Adams International Airport, stripped of her clothes, asked to bend over a toilet set, and had fingers inserted into her.
“Did you take Shanique Myrie to a bathroom after interviewing her?” Brown asked. “I never took Shanique Myrie to a bathroom,” Carrington responded.
