The judicial proceedings against Dexter Scotland, accused in the fatal shooting of Isaac in Willikies village, are advancing with a trial date now formally set for June 1st. The case stems from a violent incident that occurred on the evening of June 4th, 2023, outside a local establishment.
According to the prosecution’s case, the victim was subjected to a multi-shot assault at approximately 8 p.m., sustaining critical injuries from gunshots to the head and torso.

This preliminary session will address procedural matters and evidentiary preparations ahead of the formal trial proceedings. The upcoming trial will examine the circumstances surrounding the alleged homicide and determine the defendant’s culpability under the law.
The community of Willikies has been awaiting judicial resolution in this case, which represents another instance of gun violence being addressed through the Antiguan legal system. The court’s scheduling indicates the matter is progressing through standard judicial channels toward resolution.
