SHADOW OF THE DOCKET: How Two High-Profile Court Cases Collided on the Streets of St. CroixSHADOW OF THE DOCKET: How Two High-Profile Court Cases Collided on the Streets of St. CroixBy: Virgin Islands Free Press News DeskST. CROIX — When the sound of gunfire rang out Monday morning in a parking area serving the R.H. Amphlett Leader Justice Center in Kingshill, it marked more than just the island’s 18th homicide of the year. It brought an abrupt, violent end to a judicial sequence that was supposed to culminate inside a courtroom just steps away. The timeline of that case closely mirrored Monday’s events, following a judicial path through the exact same court division. Both matters involved serious firearm charges moving through the Superior Court. The Virgin Islands Police Department urges anyone with information regarding the shooting outside the Superior Court or the Castle Coakley incident to contact the CIB or Crime Stoppers VI.
