Almost two dozen relatives and neighbours scoured the North Eastern coastline on Easter Monday, searching for the body of Jakeem Phillip, 16, who drowned with his cousin Dillon Clark, 25, while bathing at Sans Souci Beach the day before during a family outing.

Clark's body was pulled from the water by relatives and onlookers and bystanders tried to perform CPR but Clark was not responsive.

Manning the parlour at the front of her Gosine Street, Freeport home on April 21, Clark's sister Nkese Bailey, 37, said she sat out the search party as she had barely slept or eaten since hearing the news. She was not with the family when the incident happened.
