Detectives probe 19-year-old's death
The body of teenager Jahmeiko Perkins was found in a roadside ditch just hours after he told his cousin he was “coming right back” to help her celebrate her birthday.
The 19-year-old, who was known as Meiko, was last seen alive at a family birthday party at about 9pm on Friday.
About 12 hours later his “extensively injured” body was found in a ten foot ditch next to Parsons Lane in Devonshire and police are treating the death as suspicious.
A passer-by spotted the lifeless body of Mr Perkins in the secluded wooded area with a bike laying on its side nearby at about 9am on Saturday.
He was just a couple of roads away from the home he shared with his grandparents in Schools Drive in Devonshire.
Detectives from the Serious Crime Unit are now trying to piece together how Mr Perkins died and foul play has not been ruled out.
The body is not believed to have showed any signs of gunshot wounds but there were “obvious injuries” that raised the suspicions of officers. However, the exact cause of death cannot be determined until an autopsy is carried out.
Cousin Jeanann Liburd said Mr Perkins was “his usual self” as he dashed out of her 43rd birthday party at her Pembroke house.
She said: “That was the last time we saw him. I was having a birthday party and he left saying he’d be ‘right back.’
“The party was continuing until about 12 and I thought he’d be straight back. It was very unusual of him not to come back as he said he would.
“He just left, he didn’t say where he was going. We don’t know where he went or who he was with. He just didn’t show up again, that was it”.
Mr Perkins graduated from the Adult Education Centre last year and was said to enjoy hanging out with friends and working out at the gym.
About ten members of his family, including his aunts and cousins, struggled to hold back the tears as they comforted each other in the living room of his home yesterday afternoon.
A graduation photo of Mr Perkins in his cap and gown proudly sat on the coffee table.

Brand Interactions - Proverb "The truth made simple."
Proverb designed a "Bring Your Own Bag and Bottle" campaign to promote sustainable living in Bermuda. High impact, low budget products extended the campaign beyond traditional media and transformed consumers into ambassadors of the charity's mission. The promotion conveyed the environmental implications of waste and overuse, and gave consumers and retailers a chance to take positive steps. Informed by temples and noodles, the logo for this pan-Asian diner fuses disparate influences to form a funky Chinese diner, a novel concept. The Myers + Chang ads appeal to a young and price sensitive demographic, conveying the restaurant's irreverent attitude and aesthetic. The signage implements inexpensive materials in inventive ways, using cut vinyl in an unexpected and impactful fashion. .
Among the 25% of respondents that have followed a company in social media, 80% have done so via Facebook. Just 6% have done so on Twitter. This raises an interesting question about companies' efforts to attract followers on Twitter vs. similar efforts to acquire "likes" on Facebook. Based on this data, it would seem that consumers are perhaps most interested in that type of interaction via Facebook, reserving Twitter for customer service issues.
