JEFFREY DANIEL REMANDED TO PRISON

Magistrate N’gaio Emanuel-Edwards has remanded murder-accused Jeffery Daniel to prison for allegedly killing David Roberts in Newfield last Friday.

Police allege the 26-year-old Cassada Gardens resident stabbed Roberts to death following an altercation that day.

A doctor pronounced Roberts dead after someone discovered his body outside his Newfield home.

Jeffery will return to court for committal proceedings on August 11.

Roberts’ killing is the second homicide so far this year.

In February, Police charged 20-year-old Verel Simon with murder for allegedly killing Corporal Clifton Common at St. John’s Police Station.
