Liberia: Prosecutors Seek More Time In Samuel Jackson Case, Three Months After Charges Filed

Mr. Samuel Jackson was arrested and charged on April 2, 2026, with offenses including manslaughter and negligent homicide following the death of his wife. Since then, the absence of official autopsy and toxicology reports has remained a central point of contention, particularly because the cause of death has not been publicly established.

Government prosecutors have asked Criminal Court “A” for another week to produce the autopsy and toxicology reports central to the manslaughter and negligent homicide case against economist and political commentator Samuel P. Jackson. Nearly five months after his wife, South African national Toni Khumalo Jackson, died, and more than three months after Jackson was charged, the cause of death still hasn’t been made public — and her remains are still in a funeral home freezer, waiting on the paperwork needed to send her home.

MONROVIA — Government prosecutors have asked Criminal Court “A” for additional time to produce the autopsy and toxicology reports in the ongoing case involving economist and political commentator Samuel P. Jackson, who was indicted in connection with the death of his wife, South African nation al Toni Khumalo Jackson.
