Man charged for conspiracy to murder Kadeem Jimenez
The following is a media release from the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force (RVIPF).
Officers of the Major Incident Team today charged one male in relation to last December’s murder of Kadeem Jimenez and charged another for firearm, ammunition, and drug offences.
Nyall George, 26, of Old Plantation was charged with conspiracy to murder Jimenez while both George and John Burgos, 24, of St Croix, USVI were charged with unlawful possession of firearms, unlawful possession of ammunition and unlawful possession of a controlled drug.
A search warrant conducted on George’s Hodges Creek residence uncovered three illegal handguns, a large quantity of ammunition and a quantity of illegal drugs. Both men were arrested at Hodges Creek.
The two men will appear in Magistrate’s Court at the next available sitting.
Kadeem Jimenez was fatally wounded in the early afternoon of December 12 after shots were fired in Major Bay, East End. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
With the escalation in gun violence on the island of Tortola, Commissioner Mark Collins reiterated his commitment and that of the RVIPF in identifying offenders. He noted, however, that officers cannot do so alone.
“We need to present a united front against those who want to put us and our loved ones in danger and in fear. I urge anyone who has any information into the recent murders and the attempted murder on Saturday to come forward,” he said.
Persons can confidentially call the CrimeStoppers line 800-8477 (TIPS) or overseas, call 1-284-800-8477 with information about any of the recent shootings or illegal firearms in the Territory.

It’s we , who put these players called politicians in charge of us , so I guess if they don’t care of all the brutally committed murders, guns or the types of drugs that is circulating in this once peaceful land along with the amount of corruption within government , and they still acting like angels / then I guess that it is expected of us to accept it as no big deal ? ( in other words let the youths do their TING ?
Y’all better start building of bigger prison to make space because this is getting worse.

He was looking at 7 years each on 3 charges but the Judge declared him a candidate for rehabilitation and instead of 14 years+ gave him 4. Abduction, illegal guns and he gets out in less than 4! The Judge also has the blood of this man on his hands.
