   Bahamian College Student Joseph Darius Burrows, 22, was discovered dead in Mudleak Mandeville, Jamaica yesterday, five days after he was abducted and robbed.

   Joseph, a 1999 graduate of Freeport Anglican High School, loved to play the steel drum and was a member of Freeport High's popular Steel Band.
   
   His mother Moreen has cried continuously since he went missing, and after hearing the news that her son was found dead, family said she became numb and her body, cold like ice.
   
   Joseph, who attended Northern Caribbean University in Mandeville, where he studied biology, is her only son.
   
   He and his wife of three years, Altemarae, a Jamaican, lived in an apartment in Mandeville with their two-year-old daughter, Tijana.
   
   Altemarae reported Joseph missing Saturday night after she could not get him on his cellular phone.
   
   Joseph had gone out to get Tijana a corn on the cob from a nearby Kentucky Fried Chicken.
   
   The trip takes 10 to 15 minutes, but Joseph was gone for more than an hour before calling and informing Altemarae that he was going to a party.
   
   According to Hutchison, that's when Altemarae knew something was wrong because Joseph is a Christian and doesn't go to parties.
   ...
   The caller said Bain would tell them where Joseph is.
   ...
   After that the search continued for Joseph until today when he was found dead.
   
   Hutchison said Joseph was an upright young man, who was not involved in any unsavoury act.
