In this Thursday, June 12, 2014 photo, a morgue attendant stands before a corpse at the hospital morgue in Spanish Town, Jamaica. The Caribbean country has had one of the highest homicides rates in the world for years, but its capacity to deal with the wave of killings has not kept pace. While Jamaica has made some gains in the gathering and processing of evidence, one of its biggest challenges is simply finding a place to store and study the dead. (AP Photo/ David McFadden)

In this, April 4, 2014, photo, homeless youths hang out at the entrance of a sewer pipe along a trash-strewn canal where they live beneath a busy road in Kingston, Jamaica. They are part of a small group of young, gay and transgender Jamaicans who mostly sell sex to make money. In much of the world, giving out condoms and guidance to gay, bisexual and transgender sex workers is routine. But reaching out to men who have sex with men is practically revolutionary in parts of the English-speaking Caribbean, where homophobia and laws criminalizing gay sex have long driven people underground.

FILE - In this Dec. 23, 2009, file photo, workers sift through debris surrounding the fuselage of American Airlines flight AA331 which crash landed overnight on a flight from Miami to Jamaica, just beyond the runway of Norman Manley International Airport, in Kingston Jamaica. An investigation into a plane accident almost five years ago at a Jamaican airport has concluded that an American Airlines jet flying in from Miami botched the landing and the flight crew may have been fatigued.
