Jealous lover remanded for suicide attempt

Last week a young Indo-Guyanese man in the U.S. killed his wife after she came home and said she was screwing with another man. Apparently, this kind of talk is her daily mantra whether she was having an affair or not. I do not endorse killing as a way to solving marital problems, but the wife also has a responsibility not to cause any aggravation to her husband in this manner. The end game leave one dead and the other in jail while both side families are grieving. 

In Guyana, a man may take his own life when he learned that his wife is having an affair. There are times a man would kill his wife and commit suicide after learning of an alleged affair by his wife. This has never been an easy issue for any couple or the affected families.

In the case of Kenford Baggot: The court will hold him in state custody to prevent his from committing suicide. If Mr. Baggot is suicidal and the court find grounds to free him after hearing his case, don't you think he will find a way to kill himself and perhaps his wife to end this on going misery? I only hope this matter closed without any further incident. 

Baggot was obviously ignorant of the fact that attempting suicide is an offence since he appeared surprised when the Magistrate informed him that he would be staying in statecustody because of the likelihood of another similar attempt.

People act out of passion in a tense moment, but they can be reasonable when the matter is cool down. If Baggot was surprised of the Judge's order to keep him in state confinement, then he is not suicidal. Being locked up will only give the man more leverage to do the unthinkable while his wife is free to do as she pleases. Question: Did the wife reported the incident because she wanted him locked up and not being around? Keep in mind that Baggot never laid a hand on his wife which I respect him for.
