America Protecting It’s Interest By Watching Scamming Extradition Request In Jamaica Court.…..

Personnel from sev­er­al US law enforce­ment agen­cies are now in the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court for the extra­di­tion hear­ing of eight peo­ple includ­ing a police­man want­ed on lot­tery scam­ming charges.

The US agen­cies rep­re­sent­ed in court are the FBI, the US Postal Investigation Service, the US Marshall Service and the US District Attorney’s Office for North Dakota. The eight accused are Police Constable Jason Jahalal, Alrick McLeod, Dhalia Hunter, Oneil Brown, Xanu-Ann Morgan, Karoe Gray, Dario Palmer and Kimberley Hudson. They are want­ed on an indict­ment hand­ed down in the State of North Dakota in the US. According to the DPP’s office, the eight have each been indict­ed on one count of con­spir­a­cy and attempt­ing to com­mit wire fraud; 48 counts of wire fraud; 15 counts of mail fraud, and one count of mon­ey laun­der­ing in the state of North Dakota in the US. The DPP says in the case against Hudson, pros­e­cu­tors revealed that their coun­ter­parts in North Dakota have alleged that she was part of a crim­i­nal organ­i­sa­tion they believe was led by a Jamaican man iden­ti­fied as Labrick Willocks. Prosecutors charged that the gang began oper­a­tions in 2009 from Jamaica, the US and else­where and used an advance fee scheme to defraud a total of 80 elder­ly vic­tims of approx­i­mate­ly US$5.6 mil­lion. According to them, the cash was sent to Jamaica by mid­dle­men oper­at­ing in the US through blank cheques, wire trans­fers, the mail ser­vice and by mon­ey couriers.

A police cor­po­ral today revealed that United States law enforce­ment per­son­nel par­tic­i­pat­ed as “observers” in a police oper­a­tion in Western Jamaica in March this year tar­get­ing alleged scam­mers to be extra­dit­ed to the United States.

Detective Corporal Nashema Newell of the police Fugitive Apprehension Team made the dec­la­ra­tion in the Kingston and St Andrew parish court at the extra­di­tion hear­ing for eight Jamaicans includ­ing a police con­sta­ble Jason Jahalal. The oth­er accused are: Alrick McLeod, Dhalia Hunter, Oneil Brown, Xanu-Ann Morgan, Karoe Gray, Dario Palmer and Kimberley Hudson. Tom Tavares Finson, the attor­ney for Dhalia Hunter was cross-exam­in­ing cor­po­ral Newell when the issue arose that US law enforce­ment per­son­nel were part of a March 30 oper­a­tion aimed at exe­cut­ing an arrest war­rant on his client.

Tavares Finson want­ed to know on whose author­i­ty the for­eign agents par­tic­i­pat­ed in the oper­a­tion. But Detective Corporal Newell declined to say, not­ing that it was priv­i­leged infor­ma­tion she could not reveal.

While the cop was respond­ing, US agents from the FBI, the US postal inves­ti­ga­tion ser­vice, the US Marshall Service and the US District Attorney’s office for North Dakota, sat in the Half-Way Tree Court lis­ten­ing to her evi­dence. Tavares Finson point­ed to one Special Agent Gosper and asked him to stand. He then asked Corporal Newell if the agent was on the police oper­a­tion. Her response: Not sure But Constable Newell said she was sure the US agents did not trav­el with local police when they went in search of Dahlia Hunter at her four-storey home in Greenwood, St James. She said the American team met up with local police at the Falmouth Police Station in Trelawny.
