Mavado’s son is charged jointly with 23-year-old Andre Hines for the gruesome murder which left Lorenzo without his head.

The teenager appeared in the Corporate Area Criminal Court in 2018 and denied the murder allegations laid against him, however, it’s now reported that his co-accused has struck a deal with the police and already has given a telling statement about what took place.

A witness statement given to the police stated, “Memba di boss want him head” and Thomas’ neck was cut.

Brooks was earlier represented by lawyer Bert Samuels.

Mavado was on the island in 2018 when violence erupted in his home community of Cassava Piece, he was shot at and allegedly had to run for his life. Shortly after this incident, multiple murders were committed in the area which resulted in Mavado being wanted by the police.

In the midst of all of this, the Gully God went overseas and has not been back in Jamaica since.

The dancehall world now awaits Mavado’s reaction to this latest news about his son.
