Murder case against cop accused of killing girlfriend transferred to High Court

 
The murder case against the Constable Patrick Walters, the policeman accused of killing his girlfriend, 21-year-old assistant teacher, D'Jonnay Graham, has been transferred to the St. Mary Circuit Court.
 
The order was made after the Director of Public Prosecutions entered a nolle prosequi in the St. Mary Parish Court on Tuesday morning. 
 
The constable's attorney Donahue Martin requested disclosure, but the case file is incomplete. 
 
The police officer is to appear in the High Court on November 26 for case management hearing.
 
He was charged following an investigation into the fatal shooting and attempted suicide in June 25 at Graham's home in Richmond, St. Mary.
 
It was a party that the couple had an argument about a telephone call Ms. Graham received while they were in Kingston.
 
The argument escalated when they arrived home.
 
It is alleged that the cop shot Ms. Graham with his service pistol.
 
The constable sustained a bullet wound to the head after reportedly turning the weapon on himself.
 
He is charged with murder and using a firearm to commit a felony.
