Jamaican woman stabbed to death in US, ex-husband reportedly taken into custody
GEORGIA, United States — A Jamaican woman, originally from Ballard’s Valley, St Elizabeth, was found dead on Father’s Day in her Georgia apartment after she failed to show up for work.
Investigators theorise that 42-year-old Dr Samantha Banton Woolery had been stabbed to death the day prior.
According to co-workers of the deceased, Woolery’s failure to show up for work was cause for concern, leading them to contact the police.
Police visited Woolery’s apartment in Marietta, a city northwest of Atlanta, where she was found unresponsive with visible bruises.
The police have reportedly taken her ex-husband, 49-year-old Mickey Anthony Woolery, into custody.
