Jamaican long jumper Carey McLeod banned for 2 years over whereabouts failures

Convicted serial killer Kemar Thompson, whose bloody 2014 crime spree claimed eight lives in three separate incidents across St Catherine, will remain behind bars for at least 66 years and seven months before parole considerations.

Jamaica athletes swept the podium in the women's 100 metres at yesterday's Diamond League meet in Rabat, Morocco. 
    World Athletics Championships silver medallist Tina Clayton won the event in an impressive season's best 10.85 seconds, the third-fastest time in the world  this year and the second-fastest by a Jamaican woman in the event behind collegiate athlete Shenese Walker's 10.80.

Reggae singer D’Yani and producer Kareem ‘Remus’ Burrell, the son of legendary Xterminator Records founder Phillip ‘Fatis’ Burrell, have teamed up for what both men believe could be a defining moment in their respective careers.

The collaboration has produced Journey, an uplifting and deeply personal single that will be released on digital platforms on June 5, serving as the lead offering from D’Yani’s forthcoming album, Live Life and Prosper. For Burrell, who is steadily carving out his own identity as the head of XTM.Nation while honouring one of reggae music’s most revered legacies, the partnership feels both natural and significant.

When Claudette Crooks set out in 2022 to build a commercial project in Kingston, she had a pointed challenge for Jamaica’s pension fund managers: Instead of investing incremental amounts in New York and London, invest here.
Pension fund managers, credit unions, other investment firms and one individual backed Crooks’ idea and Thursday morning The Sana, a US$25-million, 103,000 sq ft mixed-use landmark at 5–7 South Avenue, Kingston 10, near Half-Way Tree — broke ground. 

Lenise Hewling is crystal clear on the identity for the luxe accessory brand eLSH, which she introduced to the world last August. "I had a desire to create pieces that felt deeply personal and enduring," explains the handbag designer and West Palm Beach, Florida, resident. "[I wanted to make] objects with soul, story, and presence." 
She is hard at work, deftly cutting full-grain cowhide leather sourced from Italy, when she jumps on a Zoom call to discuss inspiration and brand building. For the philosophical Hewling, stitching eLSH's minimalist bags crafts a narrative that extends beyond being statement makers for the fairer sex. 

When the House of Representatives convenes tomorrow, Speaker Juliet Holness has no recourse other than to table the Integrity Commission’s report of its investigation into alleged corruption at the Firearms Licensing Authority (FLA).
If Speaker Holness was burdened by a mistaken assumption of a legal or ethical constraint to the publication of the report, that impediment was lifted by the High Court’s rejection last week of an FLA effort to effectively hobble movement on the report, as well as other separate rulings by Jamaica’s courts on the sub judice rule. One of these was delivered only a day prior to Justice Tara Carr’s in Chambers decision in the FLA matter.
