Justice for Angel: Hans Williams and Mardea Paykue, Sentenced to Death by Hanging

Monrovia, Friday March 19, 2010: Defendants Hans Williams and Mardea Paykue received a Verdict of Guilty today and were Sentence to Death by hanging. The ruling was made by Judge Blamo Dixon, presiding judge of Criminal Court ‘B’ at the Temple of Justice on Capitol Hill in Monrovia.

Hans Williams and Mardea Paykou were arrested in January 2008 by the Liberia National Police (LNP) after the death of 13-year-old Angel Togba, a relative of Mardea and who until her death, lived with the couple as a foster daughter.

According to Defendants Hans Williams and Mardea Paykou, they discovered the body of Angel hanging from the curtain rail in their guest bathroom in November 2007. They tried all they could to resuscitate her and at the same time rushed her to John F. Kennedy (JFK) Medical Center but Angel was pounced Dead on Arrival. The state, however, charged and indicted the two for murder. In the indictment, defendant Hans Williams was accused of sexually abusing the 13-year-old girl while his wife was accused of strangulating Angel to death after she (Mardea) had discovered the sexual relationship between her husband and Angel. The defendants pleaded not guilty to the charges brought against them. Full story...

Technology helps Liberia turn the page on 'blood timber'

MONROVIA (AFP) – Liberia's rainforests, once ravaged for blood timber sold to fund one of Africa's bloodiest civil wars, are being primed as a lucrative and legal industry using cutting-edge tracking technology.

One by one an electronic tag -- similar to bar codes used on consumer products -- is attached to trees in the thick woodlands covering 45 percent of the West African nation, a painstaking process that will allow consumers to trace the end-product right back to the stump. Full story...
