A Belize shooting case with no clean ending.
White Devil follows the shooting death of senior Belizean Police Officer Henry Jemmott and the case against Canadian property developer Jasmine Hartin. It is brisk, skeptical, and unusually intimate, mixing interviews, court updates, local context, and blunt reactions to a story that keeps mutating.
PRESS PLAY
White Devil is built around a killing that became impossible to separate from power. Henry Jemmott, a senior Belizean Police Officer, was shot, and Jasmine Hartin, a Canadian property developer connected to one of Belize’s most powerful families, became the accused figure at the center of the storm. The series follows that case with a restless, interview-driven style. It is not content to ask only what happened on one night. It keeps asking what happened after. Bail gets revoked. Charges surface. Witness accounts are challenged. Lawyers look for a different court. Old details return with new importance, including the kind of evidence dispute that makes the host stop and say, in effect, wait, what? The show’s energy comes from that friction between ordinary legal procedure and a story that repeatedly feels anything but ordinary. Jasmine speaks at length, and the series lets her version of events sit beside reminders of prior reporting, court facts, and stated denials. That balance gives White Devil its particular charge. It is intimate without becoming credulous. It is skeptical without sounding detached. Belize is not just scenery here; the country’s police, courts, expat circles, local journalists, and elite families shape almost every turn. The shooting of a police officer carries different weight in that setting, and the show understands that the surrounding institutions are part of the story. The bonus follow-up sharpens that feeling by catching the case still in motion rather than neatly concluded. There are moments of absurdity, but they land against a grim backdrop. A disputed purse, a bail reversal, a magistrate court fight: each small detail becomes another test of who controls the record. The series also knows when to recap. It catches up listeners without slowing into a lecture, then moves back into tape and direct questioning. Its world is messy, social, legal, and political all at once. People looking for tidy resolution may find it frustrating. People drawn to true crime where evidence, access, influence, and personality keep colliding will find a lot to follow. White Devil works because it treats the case as alive, contested, and still capable of producing another turn.
Made for: For true-crime listeners who prefer reported interviews, court detail, and institutional pressure over tidy whodunit structure. It suits anyone interested in power, policing, expat privilege, and contested narratives.
What sets it apart: White Devil stands out because its central figure keeps talking while the case keeps moving. The show combines direct access, Belize-specific context, legal follow-up, and a dryly incredulous editorial voice.
