Guyanese woman stabbed to death in NY, husband kills self

Just hours after a Queens couple rang in the New Year, the wife became the city’s first murder victim of 2018 — and her abusive husband hanged himself,according to a report in the New York Daily News today.

Authorities were investigating the deaths as a murder-suicide after the bodies were discovered about three hours apart on New Year’s Day, police sources stated.

Stacy Singh, the 26-year-old mother of two small children, and originally from Guyana was stabbed repeatedly in the back and left face-down in the couple’s Richmond Hill home on 103rd Ave. near 113th St., according to the sources.

Loknath “was very abusive to her,” said the dead woman’s brother-in-law Romain Shaw. “She stayed with him no matter what because they had two kids together. She was hoping for him to change, but he never did.

“He was so drunk, so very drunk,” said Shaw. “He always beat her up when he went home high.”

A neighbour, according to the report, said the couple fought constantly, recalling one incident that ended with the battered wife leaving their home in an ambulance.
