The man who admitted to killing MP Asot Michael to make court appearance



The court will decide tomorrow whether Alexta Francis, who admitted to murdering MP Asot Michael, will stand trial in the High Court.
Francis, 26, remains in maximum security at HMP after confessing to the November 5 killing. Michael’s maids found his body in a pool of blood with multiple stab wounds. A family insider described the attack as brutal, with part of the weapon embedded in his body and his teeth knocked out.
Reports indicate Francis and his mother have received death threats, raising security concerns for the hearing. Scotland Yard is assisting the investigation.
Michael’s murder is unprecedented in Antigua and Barbuda, as he was a sitting MP. If convicted, Francis could face life imprisonment or the death penalty.
