The Virginia woman believed to have been killed alongside her husband by escaped prisoners who commandeered the couple’s yacht in the Caribbean was allegedly raped by one of their murderers, according to police.
One of the three men charged with the couple’s murder allegedly raped Kathy Brandel, 71, before the trio killed her and her 66-year-old husband, Ralph Hendry, on their sailboat last month, according to the Royal Grenada Police Force.
Ron Mitchell, Atiba Stanisclaus and Trevon Robertson were all charged Thursday with two counts of capital murder as well as escaping lawful custody, housebreaking, robbery and two counts of kidnapping, police said. Stanisclaus, 25, was also charged with one count of rape in the deadly case. The Royal Grenada Police confirmed that the rape charge is related to an assault on Brandel in a statement to the Daily Mail.
The Royal Grenada Police did not immediately reply to a question about what evidence led to the additional charge, given that cops have not recovered Brandel’s body.
The bodies of the couple have not been found since they were last seen near their docked catamaran, the Simplicity, in St. George’s, Grenada, on Feb. 18 — the same day the three men allegedly broke out of a police holding cell on the island.
Police believe the escapees hijacked the sailboat while the couple were on board. It was found anchored and deserted days later.
Large amounts of blood were found on the ransacked boat, but Hendry and Brandel were nowhere to be found. Police believe their killers threw their bodies overboard while sailing to St. Vincent.

The Caribbean is as lawless as New York City.
I support...hanging by the neck until dead.
He is trying to find them so he can give them $8000 a month, free housing and expedited citizenship. AND legal protection and a huge monetary settlement if they are ever called illegal.
I like to think the future George Washington Carvers, Ben Carsons, Jackie Robinsons, Walter Paytons, Simon Estes, Ella Fitzgeralds, Louis Armstrongs, Errol Garners, Gen. Chappie James, etc, etc of the world will acfually be born!😀

Blithely and carefree as the breeze, they sail on their million dollar yacht to those filthy, dirt poor, crime infested ports at their own peril. No shotguns, handguns...not needed because world is just a big blue oyster, and who could possibly want to harm them?
This crime is deserving of a quick death penalty.
Hendry and Brandel were nowhere to be found, yet they know she was raped.
Huh? Did I miss something?
Some boat broker will buy it and change the name of the boat and no bad history!! See how that works!
Orcs.
i have my doubts.
Agreed..I should have said “hope” rather than “think”!🤫
Could that yacht be used to deport illegals?
All people around the world are perfect and beautiful.
Elongated cranium, giant nostrils and lips with a 75 IQ.
Why do White skin people never learn to stay far away from Pygmy cannibals. You are asking for trouble. The Pygmy cannibal is ALWAYS on the hunt, looking for its next meal. White flesh is their favorite tastiest morsel.
This couple were very naïve about the world and paid the price. Their bones are at the bottom of the ocean and their flesh in the stomachs of the captors.
