Mistress gets probation for death threats to love-rival

NASSAU- A mistress who threatened to kill her love rival and smashed the glass of her lover’s car was spared jail yesterday.

Shecoya Davis, 34, of Cowpen Road, made multiple harassing phone calls to her lover’s long-suffering wife in 2021.

And on February 28, 2022, she used a pickaxe to break the front glass of her lover’s 2012 Honda Life, resulting in $300 in damage.

Davis pleaded guilty to two counts of threats of death and causing damage at her arraignment before Magistrate Samuel McKinney on March 7.

Davis began an affair with Chico Butler in 2019, two years after he married his wife.

Davis told police in January 2021, an unknown man, disfigured her by throwing acid in her face. She believes that Butler’s jilted wife arranged the attack.

However, police could not act her suspicion due to lack of evidence.

As a result, Davis said she embarked on a campaign of harassment against her love-rival.

Between January 2021 and May 2021, Davis made numerous calls to the wife. On multiple occasions, she threatened to send people to shoot up the wife’s home.

Additionally, Davis told the wife she would have someone shoot and kill her while she walked her dog.

Butler reportedly broke up with Davis in June 2021.

But, on December 17, 2021, Davis called the wife and told her that she would be dead before Christmas.

Davis shattered the glass to Butler’s car with a pick axe while he was at an electronics store on February 28.

Police arrested her on March 4. During her police interrogation,  Davis accused the wife of setting up the acid attack. Consequently, she said planned to make the wife’s life a living hell until she moved to Canada.

Magistrate McKinney placed Davis on probation for 18 months or the death threats. If she breaches the terms of her probation, she will have to pay a $1,500 fine to avoid spending six months in prison.

Butler also has to pay $300 in compensation for the damage to the car in order to avoid spending one month in prison.
