In a concerning trend, St. Ann has reported its fourth murder within a span of three days, with the latest incident unfolding in Inverness, Alexandria, last evening. The victim, 64-year-old Maxine Parkinson, who had been missing since Monday, is said to have been abducted and killed by her son-in-law in what appears to be a tragic outcome of a family dispute. Community members are grieving the loss of Maxine Parkinson, described as friendly, thoughtful, and kind. Sasha Lee, a resident, expressed shock over the unprecedented incident in the area.
