Acting Superintendent Nicholas Pedro, Officer in Charge of the Serious Crime Division - Detectives from the Serious Crime Unit of the Bermuda Police Service continue to investigate the deaths of Mrs. Regina Robinson 48, and Mr. Anthony Robinson 49 – both of St. George’s parish.
The deaths appear to be as a result of acute wounds to both bodies, and the circumstances of their deaths dictate that a comprehensive and thorough investigation will be conducted. A forensic autopsy will be conducted to determine the precise manner of death.
