As crime escalate out of control in the western parishes of Jamaica one Government senator called for the resignation of the commissioner of police.
The commissioner Dr Carl Williams said initially crime was a social ill and as such he did not believe a state of emergency would solve it.
The commissioner argued after the state of emergency is lifted , then what?
I concur…
As should be expected in Jamaica everyone and their mother has a an opinion about what should be allowed to go forward , hey as I have always said in Jamaica everyone is an expert in policing except of course the police, but moving on.
So the hoteliers met with minister of tourism Ed Bartlett and they insist they do not want a state of emergency . Ha, fancy that happening in Canada, Britain, or the United States , private sector telling the Government how and what it can do about crime, but again moving on.…
Not to be outdone the Mayor of Montego Bay Glendon Harris, you remember him , yes that Glendon Harris whose swearing in ceremony was done under a painting of the Jamaican flag with no green? Yes that Glendon Harris. Well he dusted off the old PNP playbook of 2010 . Jumping into the fray Harris said he is not supportive of a state of emergency either because all it does is result in extra-judicial killings by the security forces.
Ah yes there you have it…
Does anyone recall after the Tivoli Gardens foray of 2010 what the PNP said was the reason it would not support an extension of the limited state of emergency?
Well just to save time it was the very same statement , from the very same playbook.
Now let me hasten to say that had Bruce Golding wanted to finish the job he could have gone to the Governor and requested an extension with or without the PNP but he did not , so let us not conflate his actions with the PNP’s and assume he was any better .
We all know that when it comes to the PNP that party has never shied away from standing firm with it’s three G’s, Garrisons, Guns and Gangsters.
We also know that the party was never going to throw it’s support to the security forces over the interests of the gangsters who control it’s garrisons, so there was never any surprise in Glendon Harris’ statements , that has always been the party’s position.
While all of this was happening Uriel James, the alleged leader of the Discipline Gang, walked from the Home Circuit Court after the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) entered a conditional nolle prosequi asking that the case be put on hold until she can find the main witness in the matter. James and his co-accused Roshane Bygrave were set to go on trial today for the June 2011 murder of James Anderson. However, Llewellyn surprised James’ lead attorney Jacqueline Samuels-Brown when she indicated that her office would be putting the matter on hold until police investigators are able to locate the main witness Nicky Murray. Rooksie was originally charged with three murders arising from separate incidents. A jury has already acquitted him of one of those murders.
He is on bail in relation to the third case. In explaining why she entered a nolle prosequi, the DPP also said the witness has a negative criminal history which would raise issues of credibility.
Wonder what is going to happen to that third case, or any witnesses to that killing ?
Oh by the way wonder how many other lives he took which the infantile castrated and corrupt justice system cannot find it within itself to convict him of even one?
This is par for the course, this is at the heart of the Island’s crime epidemic.
It is not about states of Emergency or the competence or lack thereof of Commissioner Carl Williams , it’s about the corruption, collusion and serious lack of competenc of a system which is populated and controlled by immoral cretins who should never be administering to a system but in many cases should themselves be wards of the penal system.
In 1999 Police sources told media outlets that James was the subject of several investigations in relation to the unprecedented murder of a number of witnesses in connection with cases he had before the Court. When James was detained a few years ago, then Police Commissioner, Owen Ellington, noted that the names of witnesses who’ve accused him of murder were found in a freezer at his home. Ellington described Rooksie as one of the country’s most feared gangsters who should be brought to justice in the interest of the country.
Jacqueline Samuels-Brown the lawyer for the accused triple murderer commended Paula Llewellyn the Prosecutor for he actions.…
So there you have it , the criminal justice system does work in Jamaica.
For the criminals, those who pull the trigger and those who wear the black robes.….
Our country needs a revolution , it is a cesspool of corruption that defies political labels, it is corroded and infected at ever level with immoral disgusting people who advocate for evil killers with not a thought about innocent shed blood.
That is the Jamaica the world needs to know , not the lies about Jamaica everything nice, it’s all bullshit dressed up in food, drink, song and ganja fog.
