Mail on Sunday stated that Jemmott took some time away from his job, wife, and kids, and Hartin offered him a stay at the Grand Colony hotel in a luxury villa right on the beach, which is run by her husband. The slain cop along with his pal Pacheco arrived at the hotel on May 26. Pacheco is a jeweler and also the killer of his neighbor Jose Villanueva. According to reports, in 2018, he fatally shot Villanueva four times. He was in jail until his murder trial in February 2020. However, Pacheco was acquitted after the judge believed that he murdered Villanueva in self-defense.
