TWO MOTHERS are today weeping for their sons killed by gunmen who are still on the loose.

Maria Telemaque, of Brittons Hill, St Michael, is mourning the loss of her 21-year-old first-born Ashem Telemaque, while Consuela Pond of the nearby Pine community is still trying to coming to grips with the brutal slaying of her 26-year-old, Kemar Leacock.

The two mothers are friends and members of the Collymore Rock Church of the Nazarene.

Pond is convinced that her son was executed. She told the MIDWEEK NATION the New Orleans resident was shot twice while at Bottom Close, Wildey. But after seeking help at a woman’s house, he was reportedly dragged away by about six men who then pumped more bullets into his body.

Please read the full story in today’s Midweek Nation, or in the eNATION edition.
