Detectives assigned to the Centre for the Investigation of Sexual Offences and Child Abuse (CISOCA) are today clarifying that a five-year-old boy who has been purported to be missing in several social media reports in recent days is not missing.
The police’s Corporate Communications Unit (CCU), in a media release, said the child was placed into State care after an investigation carried out by the detectives revealed that the child’s mother was guilty of several offences under the Child Care and Protection Act.
He remains under the care of the Government and is said to be in good health, the CCU said.
The police’s information arm said investigation into the child’s circumstances was launched on Wednesday, May 15, when a concerned citizen visited the CISOCA Headquarters with the boy and made a complaint. The child’s mother was implicated in the investigation and was subsequently arrested and later charged.
The mother, who has been identified as 27-year-old Refallia Roberts of Newark Avenue, Kingston 11, has been charged with cruelty to a child, production of child pornography and distribution of child pornography
Gross
No words, your own child, no words
About ten or more years ago a very disturbing news item was reported in the Observer and picked up by international press. It was a very embarrassing piece about the state of sex in some ghetto communities. All I can say is that the human race is a very disturbing group.
Wow!!
“ state of sex in SOME GHETTO COMMUNITIES??”
Give me a break with your nonsense.
Child exploitation and child pornography is a world wide problem’ but affects especially silent rich communities whiere people have the money to HIDE behind money and high walls, BUY CHILDREN, travel world wide and bribe parents and the poor into sexual exploitation .
This is a SORRY mother.
Hope she never gets her son back again.
I hope this is not the actual child in the pic????
Some does not mean all, nor does it mean the majority of anything. Some is just an arbitrary term which most ppl would interpret to mean more than two. I referenced that article because this case reminded me of it. All I know is that article was awful to read, and the details of which I have no desire to repeat here. A lot more needs to be done to protect innocent children. Kudos to the person who intervened on behalf of this child, we all need to step in when we know of these things.
Ms. Met it seems there is lots more this story. Kamla said she was contacted by the father to be interviewed and it sounds like him full a crap and probably made up everything about the child pornography so he can get the child and stop paying child support.
