Man Arrested in Second Holiday Murder
When he was arrested and charged with Kamar Allen’s death, James Barron was already in jail and charged with 1st degree murder in a separate case.
A drug dealer already in jail on a murder charge has been charged with another murder, according to the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office.
Pasco County Sheriff’s deputies arrested James “Pimpin’” Fitzgerald Barron, 21, on Friday and charged him with 1st degree murder charge in connection to the death of Kamar Allen, whose body was found in an open field in Holiday in August.
Allen was killed by a shot to the head on Aug. 21, according to an arrest report. His body was found next to the power lines between Anclote Boulevard and Blossom Lake Drive, roughly four blocks from where Barron was living.
Prior to his death, Allen arrived at Barron’s residence in a taxi before dawn on Aug. 21.
A witness told deputies that Barron told him he got into a confrontation with Allen at some point. Pasco Sheriff's Office spokesman Kevin Doll said that Barron believed Allen had stolen money from Barron's mother.
The two left Barron’s residence on foot. Barron had told Allen they were going to go find some women.
Barron followed behind Allen, and when they got to a “cut-through,” he shot Allen once and returned to his residence, according to the report. Barron told the witness he had used a .40 caliber bullet, and that’s what was found in Allen’s head by the state medical examiner.
When he was arrested and charged with Allen’s death, Barron was already in jail and charged with 1st degree murder in a separate case.
Cedric D. Saunders, 18, was found dead Dec. 9 in the driver’s seat of a car parked near the intersection of Merrilon and Wellington drives in Holiday Lake Estates. His body had multiple gunshot wounds.
According to deputies, Barron told a witness that he shot Saunders and robbed him of cocaine. Barron was arrested and charged with the murder.
Barron has also been accused of offenses related to drug trafficking and possession. Deputies listed Barron's occupation as "drug dealer" in the complaint affidavit.

I'm not trying to sound "prejudiced" against the south and Florida, but after reading about some of the crimes that are happening here and seeing photos of these cross-eyed, goofy looking criminals who look like they've been bred with earth worms, and knocked in the head with a few too many whiskey bottles when they were babies ----- I'm not surprised that sane, intelligent people are starting to move out of this state.

I'm glad this waste of space is in jail where he belongs. Someone I know was in jail with this monster and he was threatening to kill people there. I hope the families of the victims can have some type of closure now. And to "Jenn"- your comments are moronic.

Regardless if James did this or not he is still an amazing Guy. I have a history with him and he was never like this. James just got into the wrong crowd. Talk all the shit u want but no one knows the real James like I do! Fuck what anyone's got to say!

Funny Kaylaa & Jenn you both know for a fact he did do it. (Especially when Jenn drove him to the last one.)You both think he loves you but truth is he doesn’t love anyone NOT even himself. So get over yourselves and grow up! I've known James for a while and I know in my heart and soul that when he told me he did these he wasn’t lying. Also funny how Ced's bloody car keys were found in your home Jenn with James lying next to them. Really sad that any of you stand up for a piece of shit lil boi who does nothing but playing games with your heads but I'd expect that from two pathetic ass WEAK ASS lil girls too! So before you start posting of how great of a guy he was/is post the damn FACTS!!!!! Drug USER, DEALER, KILLER, MINIPULATOR!!!!!!!

These people posting here about this guy all seem gang related. I hope the police can clean up Holiday Lakes. I don't think they can. At least these thugs keep to themselves. It makes me, as an old man, afraid to live in this nest of obvious gang activity.
