VOICES OF JOY [18TH AUGUST 2026] – Nearly three months after 24-year-old Joy St. Omer was fatally shot in Marigot, her family is renewing its call for answers, not only surrounding her killing, but also over whether the systems and institutions tasked with protecting her did enough to prevent the tragedy. With an active protection order in place at the time of her death, the family is now seeking an independent Commission of Inquiry to examine the actions, decisions and possible institutional failures that preceded the young mother’s death.
