IPNEWS: Police in Monrovia have charged and sent to court former Chief Justice Cllr. Gloria Musu Scott, and other family members. The four were charged with Murder, Criminal Conspiracy, and False Testimony to Law Enforcement officers.

According to our correspondent at the Liberia National Police Headquarters, the former Chief Justice was handed an arrest warrant and charged with the crime of Murder, Criminal Conspiracy, and False Testimony to Law Enforcement officers, in the case involving the killing of her daughter Charloe Musu, who was reportedly stabbed multiple times with a sharp instrument, sometime in March this year.

Those indicted along with Cllr. Scott are Rebecca Youdeh Wisner, Gertrude Newton and Alice Johnson.

Early this morning, IPNEWS reported of a plan to formally indict the former Chief Justice.

Unimpeachable sources within the corridors of the Ministry of Justice and LNP had hinted the authoritative Independent Probe newspaper that former Chief Justice Scott and three members of her family were expected to make an appearance at the Headquarters of the Liberia National Police today’s, Tuesday, June 20, 2023.

Other sources within the LNP had downplayed the speculations of the former Chief Justice being expected to be formally indicted.

The LNP last Wednesday, requested the Legal Team of Justice Scott to present her and three other family members on Thursday, June 15, at 9:00 am, but their appearance was postponed to Friday, June 16, 2023.

On Friday morning, amid heavy deployment of riot and armed police on the grounds of the LNP Headquarters, Justice Scott’s lawyers presented a letter of excuse, asking for an extension to Tuesday, June 20, 2023, citing health reasons.

The police gave no particular reason for the latest request, but again, in the wake of that, unofficial information about Justice Scott’s planned arrest has emerged.

The three other family members expected at the LNP Headquarters are her aunt, Rebecca Youdeh Wisner, Gertrude Newton and Alice Johnson or AC.
