A bride-to-be is charged with murder
after allegedly stabbing her fiance just hours before the couple's wedding was
to start near Whitehall, Pa. USA. Na Cola Darcel Franklin, 31, and her fiance Billy
Rafael Brewster, 36, were planning to tie the knot in less than 72hrs, but at
some point during the night, Franklin and Brewster began arguing and in the
heat of the argument, Franklin allegedly stabbed Brewster twice with a kitchen
knife, police said. "One of the stab wounds punctured his heart," When
police arrived at the apartment, shortly after 2 a.m., they found Brewster
bleeding from chest wounds on the second floor landing. He was transported to
the Lehigh County Trauma center and pronounced dead at 3:24 a.m., less than
seven hours before the wedding. Police said the couple was not alone in the
apartment when the stabbing took place. The couple's children, and extended
family members were also present because of the impending marriage. Franklin
was arrested and charged with one count of criminal homicide. During her
arraignment, Franklin told District Judge Donna Butler, "You got to check
again," Franklin was unable to accept the fact that her groom was dead.
She cried, rocked herself back and forth and eventually choked out, "I ...
did ... not ... kill ... him ... on ... purpose." She is being held in
Lehigh County Prison without bail. When Franklin told the District Judge via
the video conference arraignment that she wanted to go home, the Judge
responded, "You are not going home any time in the near future."
