Williams displayed high level of depression prior to death- HMP source
Williams was pronounced dead on March 21, 2017 at Her Majesty’s Prison.
It was reported that one prison officer had challenges getting the man to accept food or to eat. “In one instance an officer found his food container tied in a bag and placed at the top of a garbage bin. When he was asked why he put away his food bowl he denied that he did. He was subsequently given the food bowl and told to go wash it in order to get some food but he didn’t. Something was going wrong with him from then,” reported the source.
Relatives summoned
As Williams’ behaviour change allegedly escalated and officers found it challenging to get him to eat and communicate as per normal, two of his “very close blood relatives” were summoned to speak with him and they did.
“He seemed to have been ok and so he was taken back to his cell; however when the officer went to check on him in his cell about half hour or so after, he called out to him several times and got no response. He then opened the peep area on the cell door and that is when he noticed Treh’s feet way above ground level and he sounded an alarm.”
According to our source, the prison system is to be blamed for the death of Treh Williams as, according to a senior prison officer, “Counsellors are not always in the right place at the right time and many, many times prison officers have to wear two or three caps, counsellor, mediator and prison officer. In the case a counsellor should have been called in pronto,” our source noted.
Treh Williams was at the time serving a six-month sentence for being armed with an offensive weapon and assault causing actual bodily harm.
Prior to his incarceration, Williams' washed vehicles for income in the parking lot across the road from Bobby's Supermarket in Road Town.

Many people are for themselves, their needs, their views, their wants, not really caring what someone else is dealing with and what's affecting them.
My advice to persons going through turmoil, depression, hardship, loneliness, is to remember you matter, your feelings matter, your thoughts matter, you are not alone, there are so many other going through something similar.
Get counseling to better understand how to deal with your situation and relieve the stress that surrounds you. It's like chipping away at a brick wall on your shoulders and the more you open up to someone about it, the easier it is to get though it.
You are important, you are valuable, your life matters. Make it count.
Peace be with you all.
