What tragic event is this podcast episode about?
This is an off week for Anatomy of Murder, but we've been thinking a lot about a case we previously featured. In July 2022, we brought you the case of Facing Evil, the story of the 2009 triple murders of Nikita Hamilton, Faith Bissasor, and her son Davion Bishop.
Told to us by Nikita's mom, Camille Hamilton, who was shot in the head during the attack. Well, as of this month, April 2025, there's been a big update. So we are re-releasing the episode and have included the new information. Take a listen now. Jamil, when we talk about the incident coming up here, I just want you to understand that I want you to go slow as you want. And I certainly am understanding about some of the facts that you don't have a lot of firsthand knowledge of, but I just want you to walk me through it.
I don't remember exactly everything. You do. I never forget. This is something I have to live with for the rest of my life.
I'm Scott Weinberger, investigative journalist and former deputy sheriff.
I'm Anna Siga-Nicolazzi, former New York City homicide prosecutor and host of Investigation Discovery's True Conviction.
And this is Anatomy of Murder. I wanted to start today's podcast off with a question to you. What image comes to mind when you hear the word strength? Is it someone who perseveres through hardship, perhaps even pain? A person who is strong-willed? Today you will meet someone for me who absolutely defines the essence of the word strength. And there's one more thing. This was one of the most difficult and emotional interviews I've ever conducted. Her voice is soft, but her words will bring you to tears.
My name is Camille Hamilton. I grew up in Jamaica, Old Auburn. My childhood was good.
One really interesting thing about Camille's life is that from a very young age, she had one goal.
When I was growing up, I always used to love to watch the fashion show. And I used to dress up and I used to say, I always want to be in the beauty pageant. I always loved to look at the magazine, look at the pretty girl and say, one day I'm going to be Miss World.
And you know, when people hear about these beauty pageants, we may have personal opinions about them, but for those that are involved, it can become your everything. I mean, whether it is a little boy or girl that wants to be a superhero, so every time they look in the mirror, that's all they see, or again, someone that wants to win one of these pageants, it becomes all-encompassing. It is the fun. In a way, it's a little child's version of Bright Lights Big City.
After we do schoolwork, we used to have this fashion show, and I group up a bunch of girls. We start to have our own little thing.
And Camille was successful at it from a young age, and that made her want it and care about it all the more.
When you love something, it's not stressful. It was fun for me. If I posed for a magazine, it was like nothing. And we'd drive around Jamaica fashion show.
Camille loved everything about modeling, from the clothes to the action on the runway. And the camera really loved Camille.
When I was 17, I won Miss Old Harbor. At the age of 18, I move over and won Miss St. Catherine. Came first runner-up in the Miss Universe, Miss Jamaica.
And then by 18, Camille found another love. Actually, it was a reggae musician named Eustace. His stage name was Thriller U.
I met my husband because my uncle-in-law was a promoter. Like every fashion show, he shows up, he always sing. He was so warm and nice. He traveled a lot around the world.
You know, I grew up in a musical family. Both my parents were musicians. And in 2016, I began touring with a band that Phil Collins, who was one of my musical idols, was once a member of. And while touring can really be grueling work, it does have its exciting moments. And for Camille, it was her opportunity to spend more time with her husband and grow closer together.
Before we get married, I traveled Japan with him, a few places with him because I was his accountant.
Think about Camille's life from a young age. And then she had this romance that she got swept away in and she's traveling with the musician and the crowds and the cities and things were pretty exciting for her. And then by the time she turned 23, that chapter of her life ended, but the excitement was going to keep going, but in a very different way.
