The three-day appeal case of Burney “Nini” Fonseca ended on Friday in Curaçao with the defendant saying he was “tired of the circus” created by Prosecutor Get Rip with the “Magnus” and “Maximus” investigations into the May 5, 2013, paid assassination of PS-leader Helmin Magno Wiels.
The defence team argued that also convicted triggerman Elvis “Monster” Kuwas had committed perjury and that all other testimony singling out their client as the intermediary between the hired killers and those who ordered the murder was equally unreliable, backed by purely circumstantial evidence. The prosecution disagreed and demanded 26 years in prison, one more than Fonseca received from the Court of First Instance.
