Beachy Stout’s wife cried out for mother while being killed, ‘hitman’ claims

Beachy Stout’s wife cried out for mother while being killed, ‘hitman’ claims

Denvalyn Minott, who was allegedly contracted by Everton ‘Beachy Stout’ McDonald to kill the businessman’s wife in 2020, testified on Tuesday that she cried for her mother while being stabbed repeatedly by Oscar Barnes, the man who was subcontracted to do the killing.

Tonia McDonald was killed on July 20, 2020 and her charred body found beside her motor vehicle on the Sherwood Forest main road in Portland.

Minott told the Court during the murder trial of Beachy Stout and Barnes that Tonia fought and wrestled with Barnes while he choked her from behind inside her Toyota Axio motorcar.

“He grabbed her around her neck from backways and started to stab her. She shout out and seh, ‘mi mother want mi. Mi mother want mi’ and then mi start see blood spray out of her,” the witness said, explaining that Tonia ended up in the backseat of the car because of how intense the struggle was between herself and Barnes.

According to the witness, he just stood there and watched as Barnes did the job he was sub-contracted to do.

Court then went on a 15 minutes break. When the trial resumes after the break, the jury will hear testimony of what occurred next.
