The family of Cadeisha “Joy” Knight, whose body was found at her home on Friday night, does not believe the teenager took her life and wants the matter delved into.

Her mother, Fiona Knight, and godmother, Josalene “Joslyn” Browne, said they had a strong feeling there was more to Cadeisha’s death than what appeared on the surface. Both women said they suspected foul play and wanted to see justice. cadeisha-joy-knight

Their unease about the matter stems, in part, from Cadeisha receiving “disturbing” WhatsApp voice notes that contained threats from a man, said her mother.

Police said that officers at District ‘B’ Police Station, Boarded Hall, St George, received a report of a hanging in Vauxhall, Christ Church, around 9 p.m. and when they arrived and found Cadeisha, they summoned an ambulance. (SB)
