The Superior Court: Neither did they hear testimony from family members claiming Toronto police were duped into believing the 14-year-old Dwayne viciously beat his older sister Melonie before committing suicide by jumping from the 22nd floor of a Parkdale apartment building, according to Toronto Star. It was Everton Biddersingh who beat Melonie, then 15, family members now claim; And Biddersingh was with Dwayne just before the teenager went over the balcony the next day. The Superior Court jury now deliberating the fate of Everton Biddersingh didn’t hear how his son, Dwayne, may have met his death on June 15, 1992. But Judge Alfred O’Marra ruled in a pretrial decision that such evidence given at the preliminary hearing is inadmissible.O’Marra also barred evidence which showed police observed and recorded the numerous bruises, welts, scratches and cuts on Melonie body that June day in 1992. She was killed, stuffed in a suitcase and her body set ablaze in 1994 — touching off a cold case mystery that the jury is trying to solve today. Melonie was to suffer horrific abuse for two more years.
