Ah bwoy!
I can relate. We had a family friend whose son was murdered in Kingston about 4 years ago, and the day before the case call up the mother (who was a witness)was gunned down at her apt., even though there was security around.“Life is a system of half-truths and lies, opportunistic, convenient evasion.”

Sad. This lady is from Swift River in Portland, Went away and returned home to live and give her dues to Jamaica. Sad indeed.
Even in the country side people are afraid of giving up badmen as they fear the police will pass on the info. One well respected woman told me of a crime and seeing the boys running with the guns and I said you don't call the police? She said "A mi you want them come back and kill?"
Sad.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.

Sass, the woman I mentioned was Daphne Armstrong's (Portie) sister-in-law. The family used to operate a record shop in Kng.“Life is a system of half-truths and lies, opportunistic, convenient evasion.”

Killers of "The Good Samaritan" couple get lengthy sentences
5:02 PM, Mon September 17, 2012
Two men who were found guilty for the 2008 murder of a man and his girlfriend, who were dubbed "The Good Samaritan" couple were handed lengthy prison sentences this afternoon in the Home Circuit Court.
The two, Andre Ennis alias "Ricky" and Passmore Millings alias "Shane Brown were convicted by a 12-member jury in June for the murders of Taiwo McKenzie and his girlfriend Jhanel Whyte.
In handing down the sentence, Justice Lloyd Hibbert ordered the convicted men serve 50 years of their prison sentence at hard labour, before becoming eligible for parole.
Prior to being sentenced Ennis and Millings were asked whether they had anything to say.
Both said no and bore blank stares after Justice Hibbert handed down the sentence.
Ennis and Millings were jointly charged with George Cooper for the murders, however Cooper turned state witness after pleading guilty to a lesser charge .
He was handed a eight-year prison sentence.
In their submissions before the sentencing, defence Counsel C. J. Mitchell and Christian Tavares Finson urged the Judge to take into consideration the Social Enquiry, Antecedents and Psychiatric reports which were prepared on behalf of both men.
Both attorneys persuaded the court to be lenient inspite of the brutal nature of the deaths.
However Justice Hibbert said he took several factors into consideration in arriving at sentencing.
He agreed with Senior Director of Public Prosecutions Paula Llewellyn as well as evidence presented that the crime was a heinous one.
Evidence was given that the men participated in the abduction and slashing of the throats of Mr. . McKenzie and Miss Whyte in november 2008.
Both had gone to take medicine to the three men following a road traffic crash on Border Avenue in Havendale.
The remorseful couple had earlier transported the men to Hospital where they were treated and released.
Mr. McKenzie and Miss Whyte's body were discovered in bushes in Mount Salus Red Hills on November 9, after residents failed to make contact with them.
Mr. McKenzies's mother, attorney Clover Graham was recently killed in similar fashion.
