His father, Tyrone Fynn, said facing his son’s alleged killer in court for the second time was traumatising.
“During his first court appearance, he (Dondre) looked at me and smirked. Seeing no remorse from him gave me sleepless nights. We are thankful that the law is taking it’s course and that the trial will begin soon, which will give us some closure,” Tyrone said.
