Police investigators believe a domestic dispute may have contributed to the horrific killing of a 29-year-old teacher and her 14-year-old daughter at their home in Mount View Estate, Spanish Town, St Catherine, on Thursday afternoon.
The victims have been identified as Tara Pinnock, a schoolteacher at Bridgeport Primary School in Portmore, and her daughter Talia Wright, a student at a St Catherine high school.
According to Senior Superintendent Hopton Nicholson, head of the St Catherine North Police Division, officers were alerted shortly after 1:00 p.m. and arrived to find both mother and daughter suffering from multiple stab wounds. Their throats had also been slashed.
In the meantime, investigators are appealing to Brandon Maine, a taxi operator who plies the Naggo Head to Spanish Town route, to report to the nearest police station immediately. The police believe he may be able to assist with the investigation.
