WESTERN BUREAU
The prosecution in the case against Eldon Calvert, the 25-year-old listed among the country's 10 most wanted men and an alleged key player in the notorious Stone Crusher Gang, was given until June 3 to complete the case file.
When the matter was mentioned in the Montego Bay Resident Magistrate's Court on Tuesday, the court was informed that a forensic report, a post-mortem report and two police statements were outstanding.
Calvert, who hails from Meggie Top in Salt Spring, St James, is facing four counts of murder, including a triple murder in which he is charged jointly with Jamar Grant. Both Grant and Calvert were remanded.
Attorney-at-law Roy Fairclough, who appears along with Trevor Ho-Lyn on behalf of Calvert, expressed dissatisfaction at the fact that the incidences against his client took place in 2006, and yet the prosecution is still awaiting documents.
Calvert, who is linked to a series of offences ranging from murder, shooting with intent, illegal possession of a firearm and robbery, was apprehended in January at Wood Grove district near Wait-A-Bit, Trelawny.
He is also before the St James Circuit Court in a matter for which he is charged along with his brother, Gleason and a third accused, Michael Herron. Calvert has also been fingered in several multiple murders including those of five persons, one of whom was beheaded in Flower Hill, St James in 2006.
