A witness of the 2021 murder of 39-year-old Taneka Gardner at Pathways International Kingdom Restoration Ministries church in Montego Bay, St James, told a seven-member jury on Thursday during the murder trial of Andre Ruddock that he believed that Pastor Kevin Smith had powers to bring Gardner back to life.
The trial officially got underway on Thursday following the selection of the jury on Wednesday.
Gardner wasn’t the only one to die during the incident at the church. A man identified as Michael Brown, another member of the church, was also found dead on the premises.
