»The killing of Prince Fari on 15 September 1983 was the final element that convinced Roy Cousins to emigrate to Liverpool for good. ‛I went blind with cataracts and I divorce and remarried,’ Cousins explains. ‛Me there work with Fari and them kill him, and me just decide fi call it a day. Them kill him over a dance: they wanted to keep a dance and him give (a promoter) half of the money and owe him half, but (the promoter’s) woman mash up the dance the night, she have a fight, so Fari say him nah pay his other half of the money. Prince (is) one of the man who come through the system the hard way. Is a man who go to prison a Jamaica and certain things, and Jamaica is (about) survival. Edgewater him live, and him go home to water him garden, and the (gunmen) them a watch him, and as soon as him roll up the hose to go in, they go with him. Them say everybody fi lay down on the floor, and I hear him lay down neatly, him don't put up any resistance, but him wife, she know the boy them, and she a put up resistance, and they shoot she first, but she never dead, and they shoot him, kill him like an animal. In the living room you see the blood with his fingermark all over the wall, when a person in agony.’«
