Limewood Lane shooting now a double murder investigation

Freeport-A man who was shot along with Kim Morley Smith died from his injuries in hospital yesterday, police said.

The pair were shot around 3pm at Limewood Lane in Freeport Grand Bahamas.

Ms. Smith, a mother-of-seven and the widow of alleged gang leader Tony Smith, died at the scene. Denny Rolle Jr., 24, died hours later in hospital.

Police killed Mr. Smith, otherwise known as Jamaal Penn, in front of his wife and children during an alleged shootout when they storm his home in Blair Estates on May 17, 2019.

The officers wanted to quiz Mr. Smith about a murder investigation. Smith and two other men allegedly opened fire on the officers when they broke down the door to the home.

Ms. Smith was three months pregnant at the time. She claimed that an officer kicked her in the stomach and said, “You won’t bring another killer into this world.”


Police allegedly found 23 pounds of marijuana and three guns inside the home after the fatal shooting.

They charged Ms. Smith and three other adult occupants of the home with drug possession with intent to supply, possession of firearms and ammunition.

That trial was still pending before Chief Magistrate Joyann Ferguson-Pratt.

Mr. Smith was no stranger to police. Police had accused Smith, better known by his street name Fool, of multiple murders. However, prosecutors never proved those claims.

As for his widow, prosecutors had accused her of arranging the murder of Dario “China” Knowles in 2012.

Although implicated in the murder, prosecutors did not try or charge her.

A judicial official had also accused Ms. Smith of extortion.
