As we told you, Goodfellow's murder happened less than a week after 21 year-old Brandon Lyndon Flowers was stabbed and killed.
There has been some speculation that the two murders may be connected, but according to police there are no concrete leads.
For the residents from Ladyville, Flowers' murder is particularly abnormal because he was known as young man who kept away from the street life.
There has been much discussion amongst villagers that he simply became the target of a group of young men terrorizing the village, and who are starting to behave like an emergent gang. Today, Inspector Gordon spoke about Flowers' murder and the connection that some have made to the group of troubled youths:
Inspector Fredrick Gordon, Rural Executive Officer
"On Sunday the 12th of October, sometime about 3:45am there about, the Ladyville police responded to a report of a person being beaten in the Star Street area in Ladyville whereby the police proceeded to that area where the body of the person later to be recognize to be Brandon Flowers was found in the area and he was motionless at the time. Stab wounds was found on his body at the time of the discovery."

"Can you tell us any motive for this?"
Inspector Fredrick Gordon, Rural Executive Officer
"We don't want to speculate at this time, but we are looking into all aspects of the investigation, but the investigation is pretty young at this time. We want to confirm before we reveal any information."
Daniel Ortiz
"Sources have been telling us that it may have been perpetrated but a group of young men in the village who have been causing problems for some time sir. Can you tell us if the investigation is leading in that direction?"
Inspector Fredrick Gordon, Rural Executive Officer
"Like I said we are looking into all aspects of the investigation. We are not ruling out anything. We work on the information we get."
Mike Rudon, Ch5
"In terms of where he was killed, there have been some conflicting reports that he was stabbed somewhere around the Blue House area and made his way calling for help there and there have also been reports that there was a struggle on Stork Street where he was killed."
Inspector Fredrick Gordon, Rural Executive Officer
"Our investigations show that somewhere within the vicinity of Stork Street it appears that he was stabbed because of the blood and other things that we have found in the immediate area."
Flowers' father is a well-known sports figure in the village.
