Deon Lloyd, has been remanded in prison until March 26 following his initial court appearance on Monday.

The Lower Ottos resident is accused of murdering Jevon Williams, a grave charge stemming from a tragic incident on January 2 of this year, during which Lloyd allegedly shot and killed Williams, who succumbed to his injuries instantly at the scene.

The circumstances surrounding the incident were complicated, as Lloyd also sustained injuries and was hospitalized due to wounds he incurred during the altercation that escalated into the shooting.

During his court appearance, he presented before Senior Magistrate Ngaio Emanuel with his right hand in a cast, a visible testament to the violence of that fateful day.

Lloyd is currently being represented by attorney Wendel Alexander as he navigates the legal proceedings ahead.

    You claim self defense let’s say that’s indeed the case. Now are you a licensed firearm holder?? Hmmm

      Being or not being a licensed firearms holder in not the grounds that constitute self defense. The police now have to add or don’t add the additional charges.

    Real man fight with their fists not with guns and knives. Times have really changed. Back in the days I enjoyed watching these fist fights among the peers in the community. The older folks used to throw water on them to behave themselves. I wish fist fight was one tradition we had brought into the twenty first century.
    In Jamaica, they have recorded their 34 murders for 2025.

    Maybe a gun was used to free yourself. But I don’t understand how you ended up with a gun. I will always say you are guilty

    Maybe he took the gun from the assailant and used it against him to preserve his own life.
