Andrea Lowe-Garwood
The man hired to kill banker Andrea Lowe-Garwood during a church service in Trelawny two years ago has pleaded guilty to the murder.
Dwight Bingham pleaded guilty Monday at his trial.
He also pleaded guilty to illegal possession of a firearm for the shooting inside Agape Christian Fellowship Church which claimed the life of Mrs Lowe-Garwood.
Bingham is scheduled to be sentenced on July 25.
He is the second person to plead guilty in connection with the January 30, 2021 incident that made national headlines.
Leon Hinds, the driver of the vehicle in which Bingham escaped, is serving a six-year sentence for illegal possession of firearm after he also entered a guilty plea.
Prosecutors disclosed in court on Monday that Bingham was seated behind Lowe-Garwood inside the church.
He shot her four times before fleeing from the church and hopping into a waiting car that was being driven by Hinds.
His cellular phone fell to the ground as he fled the scene.
Mrs Lowe-Garwood's stepson, Javan Garwood, is the third person facing criminal charges for his alleged involvement in the killing.
His murder trial is underway in the Trelawny Circuit Court before Chief Justice Bryan Sykes.
Hinds is expected to be used as a witness in the case.
