Summary
On a quiet Saturday morning in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, Robyna Caldwell walked into a supermarket with her fifteen year old son Cameron and never walked out. When the One Shot One Kill gang stormed the store and opened fire, seven people lost their lives. Robyna was one of them. Her son witnessed everything from behind a freezer in aisle seven. Three years passed. The case went cold. The man who pulled the trigger walked free. Then Cameron arrived at the University of the West Indies in Kingston, and came face to face with his mother's killer in a KFC line. What happened next set off a chain of events that would send a father and his son to the same prison, and force one man to make the most devastating choice a parent can make. This is My Son. One of the most emotional stories we have ever told on this channel.
