The man listed as a person of interest in relation to the murders of a Clarendon woman and her four children, is now in police custody.

23 year old Roshane Barnett otherwise called ‘Jett’ or ‘Nick’, was held by the police in Wilson Run, Warsop, Trelawny last evening.

Police believe Barnett can assist in their investigation into the deaths of 34-year-old mother Kemisha Wright and her 4 children – 15-year-old Kimana Smith, 10-year-old Shemari Smith, 5-year-old Kafana Smith, and 1-year-old Kishaun Henry.

The five were found dead at their home in New Road near Chapleton yesterday.

Their throats had been slashed.

Police theorize that the killing stemmed from a domestic dispute among family members.
