Four sourced files separate final judgments from unresolved accountability: Cocoa Piece, the Clive Williams disappearance, the 1978 Green Bay killings and the 2010 Tivoli Gardens operation.
A guilty plea and sentence establish legal responsibility. The published appeal record is described without claiming a final result not found in the reviewed sources.
Clive Williams has never been found. The former convictions cannot be treated as current proof because they were quashed and acquittals were entered after the Court of Appeal declined a retrial.
Williams disappeared in August 2011. Four men were convicted of murder in 2014, but those convictions were quashed; Jamaica’s Court of Appeal later declined a retrial and entered acquittals.

A coroner’s jury found a conspiracy after five men were lured to a military range and killed; ten soldiers were charged, but all cases ended without convictions.
Read the sourced case file →Seventy-three civilians and one soldier died. A national commission found evidence of at least 15 extrajudicial killings, but the alleged shooters were not identified.
Read the sourced case file →“Adjudicated” means the court record contains a current guilty plea or conviction. “Unsolved” means no current conviction establishes responsibility or the victim’s fate remains unknown. A sentence appeal is not described as decided unless a final ruling can be verified.
Official police and later court reports differ on the spelling or age of some Cocoa Piece victims. The case file records that discrepancy rather than silently choosing one version.
