WARNING!!! Alleged Gay Youth Stoned to Death in Jamaica (VIDEO)

A recent video of an alleged homosexual youth was stoned to death in Jamaica was posted on On-the-ground-news (a Jamaican online news) facebook page, which was then removed on March 3, 2015. The video below depicts the lifeless body of a young man clothed in tight pants with long hair (female "Bob" hair style) laying in a pool of his own blood and continuously being stoned by his executioners. In the video, one can hear clearly anti-gay slurs being used by one of the executioners with a Jamaican accent while carrying out the barbaric act lamented, "Batty-man yuh fi dead", in translation it means "gay, you should die", repeatedly. The identity of the deceased and location where the execution took place in Jamaica are being investigated.


Members of the Jamaican LGBT community are deeply sadden and heartbroken by the gruesome public execution of this young man in the streets of Jamaica. The video brought tears to my eyes and causes anger to permeate my heart. Many believe that all hopes for tolerance and respect for LGBT lives in Jamaica was shattered. Fear currently ripples through the entire community. 

One could hear the deadly silence coming from the Jamaican government, media and "LGBT community" which fosters and proliferates such inhumane acts against LGBT Jamaicans. Far too often such barbaric acts against perceived or known homosexuals living in Jamaica goes unreported and unpunished. Dwayne Jones, 16-year-old transgender woman, otherwise known as "Gully Queen" was murdered on July 22, 2013. No indictment or arrest was made in the death of Dwayne Jones.

We need the intervention of the international community/council on human rights to demand the end of LGBT persecution in Jamaica. Enough is enough! (Jamaica's Prime Minister) shame on you! Blood is on your hands. 

LGBT LIVES MATTER!

    1. first off all, fuck y'all how are saying my country is primitive , if u guys know anything about the bible u would know that it is wrong to be gay however i do not feel this is right but wrong is wrong, also if america is a quote on quote Christian place for example ''in god we trust '' you would not allow this to happen im not saying one should be persecuted but today for example people are getting comfortable with the idea that it love , well i don't feel that one should be told who to love but the fact of the matter is its wrong and never call Jamaica primitive because at-least when a white(any) man kills anyone they get justice unlike america .

    2. Primitive country???
      Go on...broad strokes.

    3. Primitive country???

  • Maybe you all should await the findings of a proper investigation before making pronouncements. YES! This should never have happened. But nothing in this video says he was gay, or killed because of homosexuality. The term "battybwoy" is used in a derogatory way when refered even to heterosexuals, and doesn't exclusively have a gay tone in Jamaican slang. Just like how straight men call each other fags in the US. If the authorities find that he was a theif that was caught, and he was not gay, then people will say the "homosexual community" started this propaganda intentionally. It would hurt any drive for equality, because this would be seen as deceitful, and part of the "gay agenda". Call a hate crime a hate crime, AFTER it has been proved as such.

      You are an idiot and know nothing of Jamaican culture and I too will never spend one cent on that island ever again - I will retire to Florida when I can afford it. There was a story several months ago about a pastor who washed to feet of lesbians in a show of support and I opined that had they been men, they would have been murdered right there in the church and not one of those christians would have raised a hand or voice in protest. I was born and raised there so I know what is in the hearts of even some well meaning people.

    2. The man in that video was confirmed as one of 2 men who sexually assaulted a young boy, he was not attacked for being homosexual, he was attacked for raping the little boy. Sadly, people who commit crimes are attacked and sometimes killed, robbers, thieves, rapists are among the most targeted by mobs in small communities. What the community did to this man was terrible but he was not attacked for being homosexual.

    3. Confirmed by whom? The angry mob? Because we know angry mobs are a good source of justice, right? Was there a trial for the accused? Is there a trial for the people who were in this mob? What's your source for this "confirmation?" Obviously no one has had their day in court. Certainly not the accused- whos brains were bashed in, and you seem to be defending the killers. Were they ever brought before a legal authority? Where are your sources, outside of defending mob justice?

  • Two friends and I took a trip to Jamaica in 2003. Our goal was to visit Appleton Rum Factory, Fern Gully, Dunns River, Wassi pottery and eat as much jerk Chicken available and of course, visiting Bob Marley mausoleum in Nine Mile, his final resting place. We all knew JA frowned upon gay ppl. But, we were always around other vacationers. It's absolutely no right and disgusting to hear that. We vowed never to go back to Jamaica. What a bunch of hateful ppl. Those who beat someone to death. I wish drama will find them.

  • It does not matter whether he was gay or not. No one has the right to kill someone in this way. apart from the fact it is known that such things happen in Jamaica there.

    1. Of course nobody should be murdered in such a way. It does matter though, because if he wasn't, he would not have been the victim of such a crime. He was only a target because he was gay and if you think that doesn't matter, you are very naive.

  • Now if only we could get that done here in the west, we'd have less faggots to put up with...

  • that poor young man; another barbaric act from another nice christian country

  • I hope this gets published: The man was caught breaking into someones home and robbing poor people that is why he was beaten. That incident is actually four years old, it is known that the term 'batty boy' is just a cuss word as fuck or anything else use at person even when they are straight. Let me see if you are about truth or just propaganda.

    1. Well I'll ignore your trolling, anonymous. I'll assume you are a liar.

      There's never a reason to murder someone. Never.

    2. I'm from Jamaica and I don't know where you get your facts but that's not what "batty" boy means at all. Batty is slang for backside or bottom, what North Americans would call butt. It's the same as the North American slang "butt boy". It means you have anal sex and it is very much a slur intended to identify and shame homosexual men. So it's you who isn't about truth and who is pushing propoganda. I am ashamed of my country for it's stance on this and terribly saddened to be Jamaican when this is what we allow and will stand for.

    3. This video is not 4 years old, this incident took place less than 30 days ago. The man in that video was confirmed as one of 2 men who sexually assaulted a young boy, he was not attacked for being homosexual, he was attacked for raping the little boy. Sadly, people who commit crimes are attacked and sometimes killed, robbers, thieves, rapists are among the most targeted by mobs in small communities.

  • I am sick ,and tired of seeing my brothers and sisters being killed and beaten this way, no one deserves to be attacked this way or any other way, I am ashamed of jamaica, and the government's actions to allow such evil to happen to its people and not even stand up to the diversity of others, I guess jamaica does not believe in human rights, or even the bible, May my brother rest in peace,

  • Report the news correctly. The men were beaten because they kidnapped and raped a 7 year old boy. Be as gay as you want but do not expect free will to rape children. Gay or straight that is leaving you open for a beating before the police come for you.

    1. You're fucking pathetic. To hold the words of a book in higher regard than a human life. Fuck your fake god.

    2. This comment has been removed by the author.

    3. The Bible also says to stone female adulterers and that males may have as many wives and concubines as they can afford. The Old Testament is completely sexist in regards to it's rules for social conduct. Jesus is quoted as saying that the greatest commandments of all are " Love God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength and LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF " (emphasis mine). He also said "treat others the way you want them to treat you" & " love each other as I have loved you". He said NOTHING about homosexuality, either for OR against, in ANY gospel, canon or non canon.

  • I have never been more ashamed to be Jamaican. I know that that not all Jamaicans are evil and cruel as that young man's insinuators, but the international community need to impose sanctions on Jamaica. The Jamaican government and miss Portia Simpson need to make legislation to stop kind of barbaric act on gay people in island. She is more concerned and winning elections rather than doing good by the people. A rapist, child molester, women beater, bank robber, murderer on the island would not be treated with such disdain and killed. Jamaicans seems to have more tolerance for criminals, but kills gays. I also blame the church community in Jamaica - you are a bunch of hypocrites, God loves all people regardless of who we are. If God should punish people for sin, the church goers would be the first to be stoned to death. You preach hate when you should preach love and acceptance. It seem that you have all forgotten how you were all slaves, or rather your descendants, when you were hated, beaten, and hanged because of your race. You were once and still is hated and discriminated by some because of your race, and now- you fools are hating gays, and murdering then because of their sexuality. You all need a dose of slavery to return - so that you get recall what it is like to be discriminated, hated and killed because of who you are. may God have mercy on those of you who hate. I hope that the few good Jamaican on the island, will have the courage to speak up against hate. But i well know that those who chose to speak up, straight or gay, will also be subjected to persecution. Shame of you Portia Simpson - the next time you visit the country where i live, i will be there shout my boooo's
