Kevin Duggan Woods, 32.
The investigation continues in the unexplained death of a Reno man that occurred on a Caribbean Island early Monday.

Most local authorities, including police, the district attorney, and the coroner's office say they have heard nothing about the case of Kevin Duggan Woods, 32, whose body police in St. Maarten say they found in bushes before dawn Monday. Police had gone to the area because neighbors reported hearing someone call for help.

Woods has an address listed in Reno, but it is a post office box at UPS store on Keystone Avenue.

The store owner did say that he had been contacted by police, but he could not release any more information. Woods has also had addresses in San Francisco and San Diego, according to information obtained by News 4.

According to San Diego property records, Woods sold a townhouse in Pacific Beach for more than $400,000.

Police in the Caribbean are asking family and friends to come forward and help confirm the identity of Woods, even though they have his Nevada driver's license.

Former Chief Commissioner of Police Derrick Holiday. (File Photo)

Philipsburg: --- Former Chief Commissioner of Police Derrick Holiday remains a sad and disappointed man on Tuesday when he received the verdict from the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court upheld the verdict of the lower and appeals court of the Netherlands Antilles which now paves the way for the Federal Government to proceed with his dismissal from the police force KPSSS.

Holiday has been sentenced to one year suspended sentence and was banned from holding any position within the police force for the next three years, and 180 hours of community service.

Holiday was charged and convicted for forgery, and fraud mainly with re-entry permits that was not from the regular NAVAS system. Holiday signed at least 43 of the forms that were created by former and convicted commissioner of police Marcel Loor. Holiday was also convicted for collecting his rent subsidy fraudulently since he purchased the house he once rented from his uncle and landlord.

I'm sure it's been mentioned before but May 30th is Herbie Merryweather's birthday.

If I'm figuring correctly, in 2005 he turned 21.

I've also read that his grandfather John Merryweather's birthday is on the same day.

During WWII, John Merryweather was sent to an expensive boarding school
in Jamaica. In 1986 John Merryweather was nominated as a minister to
represent Aruba in Holland. He was responsible for the students of Aruba
living in Holland, and he was the contact person for all the economic
affairs. for 3 1/2 years John Merryweather was director of the national
Fund Sports for handicapped people. John Merryweather received twice the
"Order van Oranje" (A recognition by Queen Beatrix for being an
outstanding citizen.)

Just something that always makes me go hmmmm.

He has a son, named Herbert (Herbie) Merryweather. Herbert is married and has a son, but I don't know his name. The mother of this son came to talk to my mom day before yesterday and it turns out that her son is a classmate of Joran's.

So, got it, grandson Merryweather is Joran's classmate. Turns out that that grandson and mom had a major clash with Joran some time before, because Joran accused grandson of killing Joran's dog and throwing it in Moko Dam (place where TX ES also searched), however, the mother threatened to go the cops to make a complaint against Joran, and the Joran confessed to killing his own dog.

I'm not kidding. Not even a little bit.
