Prison inmate slapped with murder charge this week
An inmate at His Majesty’s Prison in Balsam Ghut was charged this week with the April 2023 murder of Long Look resident, Kemo Lettsome.
Lettsome was fatally shot during a drive-by shooting while at a family gathering near the Stickett in Long Look.

The RVIPF stated that the investigation is still ongoing and assures the public that every effort is being made to gather all necessary evidence.
“We will continue to provide updates as they become available while respecting the investigation’s integrity,” the police said in a media release on Wednesday.

If he was already in prison how did he manage to murder someone who was not in prison.
You can be charged with a crime once you played a role in the crime. In this case, even if he was not the person who pulled trigger, he can be charged on the basis of joint enterprise, or conspiracy. Sometimes the person who pulls the trigger was simply pointed in the right/wrong direction by someone else. The “someone else” is just as guilty, if you can prove it.
