KINGSTON, Jamaica – Jovial. Easy-going. Friendly. Helpful. That is how family and friends of 18-year-old Devanese Nelson are remembering the slain mother of one, and it’s why they are shocked at her brutal death.

Nelson, also called Pinky, was at her home in Denham Town, Kingston on Sunday night when she was shot and killed.

“Pinky quiet, nuh inna no mischief, nothing at all… she always smiling. if you say something to her, she just smile and walk gone inna di yaad gone doi weh yuh tell her fi do. She nuh deserve this at all,” she continued.

Since Nelson’s death, police have listed her boyfriend and father of her child, Eric Murdock, otherwise called ‘Brando’, and his uncle, Tevin Cross as persons of interest.

Police said Murdock and his uncle, both from Kings Heights, Water Street, Kingston 14, are being asked to turn themselves in to the Denham Town police immediately.

The police said residents reported hearing explosions and summoned members of the security forces. Upon arrival of the police, a joint search of the area was conducted with the military during which they were alerted to the apartment in Kings Heights.
