Cooper twins timeline
Sunday March 13: Jahmal and Jahmil Cooper go missing after last being seen getting into a jeep at the junction of Court and Elliott streets in Pembroke in the early hours.
Monday March 14: Police put out a public appeal for the missing pair.
Tuesday March 15: Police refuse to rule out foul play but stay tight-lipped on speculation about a Crown Hill, Devonshire, home being cordoned off or that the twins were victims of reprisal attacks.
Wednesday March 16: The twins' mother, Rochelle Zuill Cooper (pictured, right), makes an emotional appeal for their safe return as it emerges the twins were taken to a house in Devonshire, where Police say they were “held against their will” and repeatedly assaulted by a number of individuals before being moved ahead of a Police raid.
Thursday March 17: Arsonists attack the Crown Hill, Devonshire, home (above) where forensics experts had been gathering evidence from blood spills in the storage room.
Friday March 18: Police duck questions about how the arsonists were able to attack the home. Meanwhile, Police divers continue the search for the missing men while amid tight security the first suspect is charged with their assault - a 33-year-old Hamilton Parish man Kenneth Jermaine Burgess (pictured, left).
Monday March 21: The Royal Gazette reveals the abduction was over the theft of a large amount of money from an underground gambling den as Police sources reveal the bodies have probably been disposed at sea after the pair were beaten with baseball bats and tortured. Around 50 officers are now on the case and two more arrests are made in connection with the assault at the Crown Hill, Devonshire, home. Police Commissioner Jonathan Smith admits the fire hindered the investigation and said lessons had been learned after the two officers guarding it had left one side of the house exposed.
Tuesday March 22: Another man appears in court. Dennis Alma Robinson, 34, of Palm Valley, Southampton, is charged with inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent to do grievous bodily harm on the Cooper brothers at a house in Devonshire on March 13.
Wednesday March 23: Police offer a $10,000 reward for information on the case with posters distributed island wide but the trail grows cold.
Meanwhile, the family appeal for the rumour mongering to stop as the island is gripped by the horrific case as hopes fade of finding the pair alive.
Wednesday April 13: Two bodies are found on a remote ledge at Abbot's Cliff in Hamilton Parish although police cannot confirm they are the Cooper twins.
