Lowe Garwood murder trial continues Monday
Trelawny, JAMAICA— Javan Garwood, the man accused of being involved in the shocking murder of his 51-year-old stepmother Andrea Lowe Garwood while she worshipped at church, will return to court next Monday for the continuation of his trial.
The matter was postponed when it was called up before the Trelawny Circuit Court on Tuesday after his lawyer, Khadine Coleman, asked for time to assess material provided by the Crown.
Lowe-Garwood, who worked at National Commercial Bank, was shot four times by a gunman who had sat behind her during a worship service at Agape Christian Fellowship Church on Market Street, Falmouth.

In March 2021, getaway driver 23-year-old Leon Hines was sentenced to six years in prison for his involvement in the crime. This, after he turned Crown witness and agreed to provide evidence against both his co-accused.
