The Liberian government has announced a $15,000 cash reward for any useful information that leads to the arrest of serial killers that are responsible for the recent high-profile killings in and around the capital, Monrovia.
Liberia’s Minister of Information and Culture, Ledgerhood Rennie said in a recent press statement that the Liberia National Police has named Christian Anderson and William Anderson (also known as “Baby Shad”) as persons of interest in the LNP’s preliminary investigations.
Rennie said that it would set aside $5,000 for actionable information on each of the persons of interest.
“Last week, the Ministry of Justice ordered post mortem examinations on the remains of John Tubman, Maude Elliot, and William Tolbert, III – who were all discovered dead in their homes – as part of a full-scale investigation.
“The Joint Security of Liberia, under the chairmanship of the Ministry of Justice, is scheduled to convene on Tuesday, Nov. 9, 2021, to review the general security situation in the country.
“The public is assured that the Joint Security is working around the clock to solve three recent murder cases in Monrovia and provide enhanced security to the public,” Rennie said.
Rennie said that the Government condemns the unwarranted politicization of the death of these individuals, describing it as insensitive to the families of the deceased.
