Entertainers, parent group, taxi operators voice disgust over Danielle Rowe’s killing
Jun 14th, 2023 | Category: Special Reports | 6:34#JamaicaGleaner JUNE 14, 2023: Amid public outrage over the brutal and callous throat-slashing murder of eight-year-old Danielle Rowe, members of the entertainment fraternity Tuesday supported a call for the Government to resume hanging to punish child killers. The Braeton Primary School student was abducted last Thursday outside her school in St Catherine and was found with her throat slashed in Vineyard Town, in East Kingston. She succumbed two days later at the Bustamante Hospital for Children. “I am still saying go back to capital punishment, go back to hanging because these monsters dem a coward, dem fraid to die and dem a snatch people’s life like it’s nothing,” Carlene Smith, popularly known as Dancehall Queen Carlene, advocated.
