In Monrovia, the Liberia National Police has officially named Samuel Jackson as a suspect in the death of his wife, Toni Jackson.

Police Inspector General Gregory O. W. Coleman confirmed on March 14, 2026 that Jackson is currently being held at the police headquarters along with several relatives and household staff while investigators continue to examine the case.

Under Liberian law, the police have 48 hours to decide whether to formally charge him and send the case to court or release him if there is not enough evidence at this stage.

Investigators have already searched Jackson’s home in Sinkor, where they collected samples and other items that will undergo further forensic testing.

Jackson, who had earlier been identified as a person of interest, reportedly turned himself in voluntarily and is cooperating with investigators. Police have also questioned family members, staff, and neighbors in an effort to understand what happened before Toni Jackson’s death.

If prosecutors decide to file charges within the 48-hour period, Jackson will be taken to Monrovia Criminal Court to face arraignment. If not, he will be released while the investigation continues.

💔✊🏿 March for Justice – In Memory of Austin Tengbeh ( Big Boy)

On Friday, March 6th at 9:00 AM, concerned citizens will gather peacefully in front of the Ghanaian Embassy in Monrovia to demand justice for 26-year-old Liberian, Austin Tengbeh, whose life was tragically lost in Ghana.

According to preliminary reports from the Ghana Police Service, Austin had traveled to visit his brother in Lashibi. During his visit, an apartment caretaker allegedly raised a false alarm accusing him of theft. Witnesses say a crowd quickly gathered, and the situation escalated into what has been described as mob justice, ultimately costing Austin his life.

This peaceful march is being organized by the Citizens Action Committee to raise awareness and call on Ghanaian authorities to thoroughly investigate the incident and ensure accountability. The goal is not only justice for Austin, but also greater protection for Liberians living and traveling abroad.

📍 Location:
Embassy of Ghana in Monrovia
Off Tubman Boulevard, opposite Conex Gas Station, Old Congo Town.

Let us stand together peacefully and demand justice. No family should have to endure such a loss.

🗣 We want justice for our brother.

A High Court in Juba has delivered its judgement in the Sherikat gang r**e case, sentencing four suspects to 14 years in prison each. The court also noted that two of the accused were minors at the time of the crime and ruled they should serve five years in a reformatory centre instead. One suspect was acquitted due to lack of sufficient evidence.

This ruling reflects a difficult balance between justice, accountability, and the protection of minors, while also reminding the public of the serious impact of such crimes on victims and communities.
