No tears for Hawkesworth

LOLITA COWARD is not among those mourning the recent death of Chris Hawkesworth even though her late son was once Hawkesworth’s “right-hand man”.

“He shoulda dead ever since,” was her unapologetic response to a SUNDAY SUN team that visited her home in The Pine last week. “I say that with no fear.”

The body of Hawkesworth, who was once linked to a major drug ring, was discovered on October 1 in the passenger seat of a car he was driving. He had been shot in the back of the head.

Coward’s son Anthony, known as “Tone”, met a gruesome death when he was kidnapped on October 21, 2005. His body was found two days later stuffed in the trunk of his girlfriend’s car in a bushy cart road at Neil’s Plantation, St Michael. His hands were severed at the wrists with handcuffs still locked in place. (MB)
