Senior Puisne Judge Marva McIntosh has ordered that Jeffrey Perry, the 31-year-old security guard who is charged with the murder of three children at Kilancholly, St. Mary, must return to the Home Circuit Court on May 25.

Perry's lawyer, Robert Fletcher, asked for another mention date when Perry appeared in the Home Circuit Court yesterday. Mr. Fletcher said he needed to get further instructions from Perry.

The Crown is alleging that Perry, who is a cousin of the children, fatally stabbed them on January 28, 2005.

The deceased are 15-year-old Dwane Davidson, 13-year-old Sue Ann Gordon and four-year-old Chadic Williams.
