According to the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force, Jolie Williams and a friend were staying in a guest house in the capital city of Castries. At approximately 3:40 AM, their attacker broke into the residence and stabbed Williams and her guest.

According to WIC, Williams’ employer Robert ‘Chef Robby’ Skeete confirmed that she had recently ended a relationship with a partner “who was not willing to break up with her”.
Local police are reportedly searching for the alleged partner in connection to the stabbing. This is the second violent death of one of Skeete’s employees in the last two weeks with another woman who worked for him having been shot on June 08, 2025.
