He turned himself him "quickly"? I wonder if the island has liberals who will see that action as one with conscience.

Well obviously they need more gun control.

Sad, you can’t even go to a deserted beach in a 3rd world country safely any more.

On the islands, a machete is often referred to as a cutlass. Used for cutting sugar cane, and chopping coconuts.

The British press reported it as a rape / killing. Her husband went for a walk with her and was chased away, apparently. What’s wrong with men these days?

That’s odd. The other article I saw elsewhere said she was attacked and raped, the husband ran off to get help, came back, she was dead.

I had a Cutlass. ‘77 and bright red. Got rid of it after the heater crapped-out on me 15 min. into a late November drive from Ann Arbor to Pittsburgh.
