Martin, who was 16 years old, was trying to escape the police officers who had spotted him and a group of friends in a car that was reported stolen. Although many of that afternoon’s events remain unclear, this much is known: A police officer deployed his Taser near the canal while trying to apprehend Damain. Official reports say the electrified Taser probes never made contact with Damain and ruled his death an accidental drowning. That doesn’t sit well with his friends and family: Damain was an athlete, known to be a strong swimmer. Directed by Jason Fitzroy Jeffers and Jess Swanson, this video investigation by The Intercept and the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting casts doubt on the official findings, surfacing evidence that Damain may have been tased. Drowning by Sunrise received four awards in the regional Green Eyeshade journalism awards in 2020: First Place for Investigative Reporting in Television, First Place for Documentary in Television, Best in Division for Television, and third Place for Online Videography.For more information, please visit The Intercept. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/1645394314885-FZIAMWOTHO9TG0W3EPVP/SIYSA-WEBSITE.jpg Film https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/1645636481745-1RJKWPTSEIH9H3HXQUQF/DOLFUN-WEBSITE-LAURELS.jpg Film https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/1645391841312-MQKV2Q88816A6SVH1R9Q/The+First+Plantation+-+Still+1.png Film - The First Plantation (working title) Director | 2026 The stunning Caribbean island of Barbados is the birthplace of many things: rum, Rihanna, and sadly, the world's first plantation-based economy, from which key laws and social frameworks around plantation life spawned across the Caribbean and the United States, paving the way for so many aspects of systemic racism which still haunt the Americas to this day. With Barbados having recently become a republic, its government has embarked upon a reparations campaign. Its first target? Drax Hall, one of the most influential plantations in the western hemisphere, owned by the same family for nearly 400 years. Its current owner is MP Richard Drax, the wealthiest landowner in the UK House of Commons. With this, debate has sprung up on both sides of the Atlantic: should the Drax family still be allowed to profit from this historic property, or should it be handed over to the people of Barbados, who are wrestling with nationwide systemic deficiencies wrought by colonialism and the looming threat of climate change? Directed by Barbadian filmmaker Jason Fitzroy Jeffers, The First Plantation is a spiritual and deeply personal investigation into the haunted legacy of the 13th smallest country in the world, its oversized impact on modern history, and how its undeniable claim for reparations. https://www.jasonfitzroy.com/about daily 0.75 2026-03-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/1640629798353-J2WRFVSXFJN6JODRSP6M/Screen+Shot+2021-12-27+at+2.29.35+PM.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/308d5071-f332-47b7-aa11-313b3f56ccd1/Jason+Fitzroy+Jeffers+-+2024+Headshot.jpg About https://www.jasonfitzroy.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/1640630114820-FT1IUZERLTHUXU2PRO2U/Screen+Shot+2021-12-27+at+2.29.35+PM.png Contact https://www.jasonfitzroy.com/pagecv daily 0.75 2022-02-20 https://www.jasonfitzroy.com/home daily 1.0 2023-01-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/1674550265981-VIJ5VNWILZUFUVLLZNBY/Home.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7631a7b9d80a4a2be5ce32/0f3076b5-8570-4118-a30e-b4b294b93413/Home.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.jasonfitzroy.com/press daily 0.75 2025-05-19
