Family Grapples with Cousin Killing
posted (April 1, 2019)
And while police wait for instructions from the DPP - the family of the two cousins isn't sure what's next. The deceased Malcolm Leslie and the accused James Gibson are in the same age range, grew up on the same family property and are the sons of two brothers. But, according to his aunt, the young men had very different personalities, and something just went inexplicably wrong on Saturday afternoon:..

Voice of: Jennifer Leslie, Aunt of Deceased and Accused
"Malcolm is a little boy who plays football, anything that you ask him to do he does but he has a little temper. He is easy to get ignorant but James, on the other hand, is an easy going fellow. So, I really don't know what possessed them for that to happen."

Jules Vasquez- Reporter
"You said it is the children of your two brothers. How is it affecting the family?"

Voice of: Jennifer Leslie, Aunt of Deceased and Accused
"Very hard, deep; because it is something that you never expect. Like I said, Malcolm has his little ignorancy but not for it to cause something like this. Well, it caused it because it already happened but I think they need to find God. I think the funeral will be handled properly because it is a family member that comes from a good familly, just that Satan right now is about and is seeking. I know my brothers Bryan and James are close, they will always be together and I know my two brothers will leave it to God to take control."

We'll late you know later this week, what charges of any will be brought against James Gibson.
