The St. James police have officially charged 33- year-old Rushawn Patterson otherwise called Chizzie with the murder of Social Media Influencer Aneka “Slickiana” Townsend.

Commanding Officer of the St. James Division Senior Superintendent of Police, Vernon Ellis says a postmortem examination was conducted on her body on November 5 and concluded that her death was caused by strangulation.
