Led by the country’s Head of State, a nation today bade farewell to a police officer in a solemn and dignified funeral service also attended by the Prime Minister and senior Cabinet ministers, the senior ranks of the police force and scores of family and neighbours of a close-knit St Peter community.
It was the final farewell for acting Station Sergeant Newton Carmichael Lewis. His parents Alincia Lewis and Anthony Lewis; his wife Kathy, children and other close family watched as his colleague mourners bore his remains to the graveside.

“Rose up early this morning, to the sound of crying;
Another mother shedding her tears oh Jah, why all the pain and suffering? Why all the senseless killing? Could it be that nobody cares?”
How Many More – John King
I wish to extend profound condolences to the partners, children, parents relatives and friends of all those who have died recently in the surge of murders. While all lives are equal in value, I must single out the killing of Acting Station Sargeant Newton Lewis. The bravery shown by him during an armed robbery that took his life reflects the escalating violence and threat to social stability which we all must endure. May they all rest in peace.
