Teen girl implicated in murders ordered charged or released
Senior magistrate Martin Gayle has ordered the Police High Command to charge or release a 16-year-old girl held in connection with the murders of AIDS support activist Steve Harvey and investment analyst Jamie Lue.

Magistrate Gayle made the order Friday after attorney Robert Fletcher applied for his client to be released.

According to Mr. Fletcher, the teenaged girl has been in custody for more than a month and her rights are being breached.

Head of the Flying Squad, Deputy Superintendent Cornwall Ford, told the magistrate that the girl will be questioned and charged on Friday.

He said the concerns would be passed on to his superiors.

The 16-year-old, who lives in Grants Pen, St. Andrew, was detained in January along with other alleged members of a Grants Pen-based gang, which reportedly kills people and accesses their debit cards.

The gang was smashed after police swooped down on an area of Grants Pen known as Vietnam.

One man was killed, several people were held, and two guns and stolen items were seized.

Investigators linked the 16-year-old to the crime after she was allegedly found with Mr. Harvey's debit card.

The police also alleged they have evidence that she went with gunmen who kidnapped Mr. Harvey from his Duhaney Park house.

The police say they also have photos of gang members, including the 16-year-old, withdrawing money from the automated teller machine following the kidnappings.

The police say members of the criminal gang had been kidnapping persons, taking them to Grants Pen where they are forced to give the bandits the PIN numbers for their automated bank cards.

Mr. Harvey and Mr. Lue were killed after the men withdrew money from their accounts.

The police are probing at least four other cases.


Dudd; So it was not about hate,but simple robbery eh!!
It is really sad when robbery as a motive for murder seem to be favoured,but I can hear the big sigh from Jamaica on this one

lleged ATM gang members charged with murder
The police say two members of a criminal gang based in Grants Pen, St. Andrew have been charged in connection with the murder of AIDS support activist, Steve Harvey.

Head of the Flying Squad, Deputy Superintendent Cornwall Ford, said one of the men was pointed out during an identification parade on Saturday.

The other man was pointed out last week.

According to DSP Ford, the names of the two men are being withheld since they are scheduled to face other identification parades in connection with the murder of investment analyst, Jamie Lue.

In the meantime, 20-year-old Treshauna Spence, an alleged member of the gang, appeared in the Half-Way-Tree Criminal Court on Monday on a charge of unlawful possession of stolen goods.

Investigators say she is also being investigated in connection with the murders of Mr. Harvey and Mr. Lue.

She was remanded until Thursday.

Investigators say another woman arrested in the matter was charged with conspiracy on the weekend.

Five persons, including the two women, were arrested in January during a major police operation in an area of Grants Pen known as Vietnam.

The cops alleged that the suspects were involved in robbing persons of their automated debit cards before killing them.

A number of stolen items and two illegal weapons were also seized in the operation.

The police further report that they have photos of gang members, including the two women, withdrawing money from the automated machine following the kidnapping of Mr. Harvey and Mr. Lue.

The police say members of the criminal gang kidnapped persons and took them to Grants Pen where they were forced to disclose the PIN numbers for their automated bank cards.

Mr. Harvey and Mr. Lue were killed after the men withdrew money from their accounts.

The police are probing at least four other cases.

You can bet she didn't take part in the killing,but is a part of the operation and should be of much assistance to the police if they can protect her.
The problem is that they will likely kill her although she is also charged,because they know that she can turn state witness.

By simple Observation, Who's pic in the news.
What the stories say about them etc. shouldn't be too hard. remember that in Jamaica the educational achievement of the people who resort to those sort of things are much higher than in developed countries,due to the lack of opportunities to use it legally to survive. These are people who would be validictorians and high achievers in normal economies you know.
That is why they seem are so successful, in being a atep ahead of the police.

[/ QUOTE ] Possibly because some have personal body guards and others don't get killed. the goal is the money and if these people can whatever they have to do to get it.
that is just another mode,to the same ends.
Remember that the other Gay man was killed for money too,and the head of the manufacturer's association was drugged tied up with the aim of getting to her cash too.

My question is: Why would these kidnapped persons give their PIN numbers knowing fully well that they will be killed after the money is drawn? On the other hand, not too many would endure being brutally beaten before they die. There should be a way to foil these bank card robber/murderers.

Young man charged with Jamie Lue’s murder

A 22-year-old man has been charged with the killing of financial analyst, Jamie Lue.
He is Linford Allen of Markland Avenue, St. Andrew.

Allen, who was arrested during a police operation last month, is slated to appear in court on March 8.

Mr. Lue went missing on December 29 last year and was found shot dead in his Honda CRV vehicle two days later on Mayfair Avenue in St. Andrew.

At the time of his death, Mr. Lue was employed to Alliance Capital Investments.

The police believe that Mr. Lue was killed by members of a gang which targeted holders of banking cards.

The gang was smashed several weeks ago when police swooped down on an area of Grants Pen known as Vietnam.

The police suspect that members of the gang were also behind the murder of AIDS support activist, Steve Harvey.

yeah, this happened to a Bahamian student at the Adventist college (cant remember the parish it's in) last year.
He was going to KFC one evening and stopped at the ATM, he was forced to withdraw funds, and they stole his car and killed him.

I remember the case. He was a student at Nothern caribbean University in mandeville. They hit his car in an accident,and then he went to meet them and they killed him and burn his car after they used his bank card at the ATM.
the weakness with that ascheme is that thethe ATMs have camaras.
that is why the case is solved,otherwise it would be dumped in the lost files pile.
