Ap­peal Court judge Wen­dell Kan­ga­loo re­mains in hos­pi­tal in the Unit­ed States. The ju­di­cia­ry's court pro­to­col and in­for­ma­tion man­ag­er, Jones P Madeira, said yes­ter­day fam­i­ly mem­bers of the judge were with him in the US.

Madeira was un­able to pro­vide any new up­dates, how­ev­er, as Kan­ga­loo's fam­i­ly could not be reached for com­ment. Kan­ga­loo was tak­en to the Johns Hop­kins Hos­pi­tal, Bal­ti­more, Mary­land, af­ter be­ing ward­ed at the Er­ic Williams Med­ical Sci­ences Com­plex, Mt Hope, where he was re­ceiv­ing treat­ment af­ter be­ing in­jured in a ve­hic­u­lar ac­ci­dent on May 20.

The se­nior judge was on his way to the Ari­ma Race Club, San­ta Rosa Park, Ari­ma, when a car slammed in­to his SUV, along the Churchill-Roo­sevelt High­way, Trinci­ty. The four peo­ple in the car-Ryan Ramtha­hal, 25, and Jevon Spencer, 22, of Bel­mont; Je­re­my Soy­er, 24, of St James, and 16-year-old Megan Richards, of Bagatelle, Diego Mar­tin-all died. The two po­lice of­fi­cers-Cpl Ter­rence For­tune and PC Mar­vin Cae­sar-who had been ac­com­pa­ny­ing Kan­ga­loo and were in­jured in the ac­ci­dent are said to have re­cov­ered.
