Noel Maitland, the police constable charged with the murder of social media personality Donna-Lee Donaldson, was remanded until November 1, 2023.

Maitland appeared in the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court today (June 12), where he was ordered to be remanded.

All outstanding material, including witness and police statements, were ordered to be submitted and disclosed.

The prosecution is to serve Maitland and his team with an indictment by October 27, 2023. Both the defence and the prosecution are also to have discussions before the plea and case management phase.

Donna-Lee Donaldson

Maitland is charged with the murder of Donaldson and preventing the lawful burial of a corpse.

The police report state that Donaldson went missing in July last year after she was last seen at Maitland’s apartment.

Based on evidence gathered, such as a bloody couch and CTV footage and more, the police have concluded that the 24-year-old social media personality was murdered, but her body has not been found.

Maitland has been in custody since his arrest on July 27, 2022.
