Golden Ager had 15 Previous convictions Before he KILLED His TEEN Sister-in-Law
Winston Jarrett is the elderly man convicted for murdering his sister-in-law Julanna White in a fit of jealousy in January last year, before he reported the 18-year-old missing a day after he used a knife to kill her after he led a life of crime since 1978.
Court documents showed that Winston was convicted 15 times previously. The man who resided in St Ann, had been charged with carnal abuse, forgery, uttering forged documents, unlawful wounding, obtaining money by false pretence shop breaking and larceny, housebreaking and larceny, indecent assault, and conspiracy.
The 62-year-old on Wednesday pleaded guilty to the murder of the teen, before Chief Justice Bryan Sykes and will know what his sentence will be, in respect of his latest crime on July 15.
White’s father, called her and got no response, before he called her sister who told him, the teenager had left their St Ann home on the Friday night, (January 24) without telling anyone where she was going. Jarrett was with the worried parents and took the phone from the wife and said maybe Julanna was with “one of her men”. The unsuspecting father then asked Jarrett to report her missing if he could not find her.
Unbeknownst to the parents, earlier that same Saturday morning, Julanna’s body had been seen by someone who was on the Duncans Bay road in Trelawny and it had multiple stab wounds and the throat was slashed. Hours later, the teen’s sister, having heard that a female body was found in Trelawny, told her father who had asked her to make further checks.
However, it was 2 days later, on Monday, before those checks were made by Jarrett, who presented a photo of the teen to the officers, on his phone. He told the police that he had made a missing person’s report at the Runaway Bay Police Station also. Following an interview with the teen’s sister on that Tuesday, investigators once again questioned Jarrett, and he admitted to committing the crime.
