In a heartbreaking incident that has drawn attention, the family of Dinari McAlmont, a 23-year-old from Bowie, Maryland, is searching for answers regarding his death during a vacation in the Bahamas. The young man was discovered dead near the Atlantis Bahamas resort on Paradise Island over the weekend, where he was visiting with his family.
His mother, Michelle McAlmont, expressed deep concern after seeing a photo of her son’s face, stating it was clear he had been severely beaten. “He was traumatized,” she reminisced about his proud persona. She noted that his hair was filled with sand, indicating he may have endured violence on the beach. “I need justice for my baby,” she cried, asserting, “That would never have been how he would have done himself.”
In response to the tragedy, Shanta Knowles, the commissioner of the Royal Bahamas Police Force, assured Eyewitness News, "We will certainly do our best to get answers." The family's pleas for justice underscore the need for a thorough investigation into the events that led to McAlmont's death.
