OUDTSHOORN<\/strong> – \u2019n 39-jarige vrou is tot 20 jaar gevangenisstraf gevonnis nadat sy haar sewejarige seun op haar verjaarsdag verlede jaar dood verwurg het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Oudtshoorn-streekhof het \u2019n vonnis van 25 jaar, waarvan vyf jaar opgeskort is, aan Drezene Jonkerman opgel\u00ea nadat sy skuldig bevind is aan die moord op haar seun, Ashwin Jonkerman. Die hof het gehoor dat Jonkerman die kind verwurg het nadat sy beweer het dat sy die seun se pa se gesig gesien het terwyl sy hom gebad het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In \u2019n pleit- en vonnisooreenkoms met die Staat, het Jonkerman erken dat sy op 11 Augustus 2024 \u2013 haar verjaarsdag \u2013 besig was om voor te berei om kerk toe te gaan, toe \u2019n vriend haar huis in Korhaanlaan, Oudtshoorn, besoek het. waarna die twee dwelms gebruik het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens hofdokumente het Jonkerman, nadat haar vriend vertrek het, Ashton wakker gemaak vir \u2019n bad. Terwyl sy hom gewas het, het sy begin dink aan die seun se pa, met wie sy \u201c\u2019n baie slegte verhouding\u201d gehad het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy het die oorledene se pa in haar geestesoog gesien terwyl sy die oorledene gewas het en het baie kwaad geword,\u201d lui hofdokumente. Jonkerman het toe die kind verwurg totdat sy liggaam slap geword het, hom na die slaapkamer gedra, en kerk toe gegaan sonder om mediese hulp te soek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

N\u00e1 haar terugkeer vanaf die kerkdiens, het sy toe eers ‘n buurman ontbied waarna \u2019n ambulans ontbied is. Jonkerman het aan die hof erken dat sy geweet het dat verwurging Ashton se dood kon veroorsaak en ten spyte hiervan, het sy voortgegaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy het verder erken dat haar bedoeling was om hom dood te maak,” het die hof gehoor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tydens haar pleitdooi om versagtende omstandighede, het Jonkerman, wat twee ander minderjarige kinders het, beweer dat haar verhouding met haar eks-k\u00earel, Ashton se pa, \u201cstormagtig\u201d was \u2013 met bewerings van dwelmgebruik, aanrandings en verkragting. Sy het beweer dat sy nooit hierdie voorvalle aangemeld het nie weens finansi\u00eble afhanklikheid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Streekshofaanklaer Goulding Hyron het hierdie bewerings betwis en bewyse voorgel\u00ea waar die oorledene se pa die bewerings ontken het en dat geen amptelike sake deur Jonkerman teen haar eks-vriend geopen is nie. Die voormalige k\u00earel het erken dat hulle albei dwelms gebruik het, maar het verklaar dat Jonkerman se verslawing vererger het tot op die punt waar sy huishoudelike items verkoop het om haar gewoonte te onderhou, wat uiteindelik tot hul skeiding gelei het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die hof het ook gehoor dat \u2019n week voor die moord, Jonkerman aan haar pastoor en werkgewer ges\u00ea het dat sy nie kerk kon bywoon nie omdat dwelmhandelaars haar aangerand het oor onbetaalde skulde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die hof het beveel dat Jonkerman ten minste twee-derdes van haar vonnis moet uitdien voordat sy vir parool oorweeg word. Daarbenewens is sy onbevoeg verklaar om met kinders te werk na haar vrylating en verbied om \u2019n vuurwapen te besit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Wes-Kaapse direkteur van openbare vervolging, Advokaat Nicolette Bell, het haar skok uitgespreek oor die \u201cgevoellose moord gepleeg deur \u2019n moeder op haar eie kind\u201d en die belangrikheid beklemtoon om dwelmmisbruik aan te spreek en die samelewing se mees kwesbare lede te beskerm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
