Law enforcement agencies in St Elizabeth, Jamaica, have launched a significant public appeal for assistance in locating multiple individuals connected to ongoing criminal investigations. The Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) has published an extensive list containing both formally wanted suspects and persons of interest believed to possess crucial information regarding serious offenses committed within the parish.
The roster of wanted individuals features several dangerous fugitives, including Anward ‘Kirkie’ Hinds, Javaughn Simms, and Oral Cole, all of whom have escaped lawful custody. The list further identifies multiple homicide suspects such as an individual known only as ‘Okeith’ from Leaseland and Jackson ‘Randy Gayle’ Gayle of Santa Cruz, both wanted for murder charges.
Notably, the wanted catalog includes numerous sex crime offenders, with Lincoln Farquharson, Paul Smith, Merrick Parchment, and Rushane ‘Biggie’ Abrahams all sought for rape-related offenses. David Pottinger faces allegations of engaging in sexual intercourse with a minor under 16 years old, while Aldain ‘CK’ Bailey is wanted for buggery charges.
Additionally, law enforcement seeks various persons of interest who frequent specific districts throughout St Elizabeth and neighboring parishes. These individuals, including individuals known as ‘Merryman’, ‘Kimmel’, and Shakera ‘Lizard’ Whyte, are believed to possess valuable information that could advance multiple criminal investigations.
The JCF has urgently requested that any listed individuals immediately present themselves at the Black River Criminal Investigations Branch. Furthermore, authorities have encouraged community members with relevant information to contact police emergency services at 119, Crime Stop at 311, the St Elizabeth PIU at 876-965-2026, or their nearest police station, emphasizing the critical importance of public cooperation in resolving these cases.
