Dawn Anderson, 64, was visiting Jamaica for her annual winter break when she was reported missing a week after arriving on the island, and now police are searching for twin brothers who may help with the investigation into her death
Police are on the hunt for a pair of twin brothers after a missing British mum-of-three was found dead in Jamaica.
The body of Dawn Anderson, 64, was discovered in a shallow grave in Westmoreland near her home where she spent her annual winter break on the island.
Dawn, who was described as “devoted” and “caring”, was reported missing by her sister on November 27, while her husband Andre Morrison had also vanished.
Police in Jamaica intensified their search for Andre who they revealed is also being sought by multiple police divisions – along with his twin brother Kemar Morrison who have been listed as a persons of interest.
Speaking with The Jamaica Gleaner on Monday, hours before the discovery, her daughter, Fiona Anderson, said the family had a “gut feeling” that her mother was dead likening the experience to a “horror movie”.
A family source in Westmoreland said: “This is not the news we wanted to hear especially coming up to Christmas. We were hoping that she would be found as she has been missing for a week now. Dawn was such a lovely lady who helped everyone out.
“We will certainly miss her. She will be missed here on the island Our thoughts are with her children and family now. We need this to be dealt with and we are grateful to the police for all the help that they have provided.
“They are doing all it takes to get to the bottom of this. The community here is still in shock. We cannot believe that this has happened here. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mrs Anderson’s immediate family both here and in the UK.”
It is understood that Andre contacted his wife’s daughters in the United Kingdom, telling them that their mum had disappeared after he dropped her off at a beach park in Negril to meet with a client, but that when he returned to pick her up, she was gone.
Westmoreland Police Division, Superintendent Othneil Dobson, told The Jamaica Gleaner that a missing person report was filed for Anderson at the Whithorn Police Station on November 27 – two days after Anderson’s arrival – by her sister.
He said the police are continuing their investigation and are searching for Morrison, the last person seen with Dawn.
