KINGSTON, Jamaica – Portland businessman Everton “Beachy Stout” McDonald and co-convict Oscar Barnes, who in March were found guilty of murder and conspiracy to murder in the 2020 killing of McDonald’s wife Tonia, have been sentenced to life in prison.

The sentence was handed down in the Supreme Court on Thursday morning.

Both convicts will be eligible for parole after serving 28 years and 11 months behind bars.

On the conspiracy to murder charge, Beachy Stout was sentenced to four years and six months while Barnes received six and a half years. Both sentences are to run concurrently.

Tonia was gruesomely murdered on July 20, 2020 on the main road in Sherwood Forest in Portland. She was stabbed repeatedly, her throat slashed, and the Toyota Axio motor car she was driving, along with her body, burned.

McDonald, who was Tonia’s husband at the time of her murder, was arrested and charged with the killing. Oscar Barnes was later arrested.

Both arrests came after police were tipped off that Denvalyn “Bubbla” Minott could assist them greatly in their investigations into the murder. After they arrested him at his house in Portland, he confessed to his involvement, claiming that he had been contracted by McDonald for $3 million to kill his wife.

However, Minott claimed that because he could not carry out the crime exactly as he was instructed — to stab and burn her body — he ended up subcontracting the killing to Oscar Barnes, who, he said, murdered Tonia all by himself.
