Jeffery Perry who was convicted last year of murdering three children at Kilancholly, St Mary, in January 2005 is to be sentenced today.
Perry was scheduled for sentencing last week Thursday, but Senior Puisne Judge Marva McIntosh said the social enquiry report she ordered on him was late.
Sentencing was postponed until today to allow the attorneys in the case enough time to examine the document.
On December 5, a 12-member jury found Perry guilty of the triple murder.
Perry, who is a cousin of the children, fatally stabbed them on January 28, 2005.
He gave a caution statement to the police in which he said a voice told him to kill.
He then went to the house and stabbed the children, 15 year old Dwane Davidson, 13 year old Sue Ann Gordon and four-year-old Shadice Williams.
