Governor General, Sir Patrick Allen has appointed Kelly-Ann Murdock as Acting Director of Corruption Prosecution at the Integrity Commission.

She replaces Roneiph Lawrence, who resigned the position, effective March 31, 2026. 

Lawrence’s appointment to the position last year was met with objections by the ruling Jamaica Labour Party on the basis that he is reportedly a long-time friend of People’s National Party (PNP) General Secretary Dr. Dayton Campbell.

Murdock was sworn into office by Sir Patrick on March 31, conveying his best wishes, as she begins her tenure in this important capacity, noting that her role is critical in safeguarding integrity and advancing accountability within the nation’s justice system.
