Student Constable Murdered In Whithorn Westmoreland

When politi­cians play pol­i­tics with nation­al secu­ri­ty, these are the con­se­quences of their actions. If there is a prob­lem with a gov­ern­ment agency, get in there and cor­rect it. That is not what Andrew Holness did; he bad-mouthed the police and made them feel disrespected.
Even you are unaware of what can hap­pen as a leader, you are by default empow­er­ing the transna­tion­al crim­i­nals that find a haven in Jamaica.
Now no one is safe.….…..Not even the Prime Minister, who recent­ly point­ed to the coun­try’s dilem­ma as he ref­er­enced events in Haiti where the pres­i­dent of that neigh­bor­ing nation was mur­dered in his home.

TRAINEE-CONSTABLE MURDERED

A police stu­dent con­sta­ble was shot and killed in the Whithorn dis­trict of Westmoreland last night. Dead is stu­dent-con­sta­ble Duvaughn Brown, a trainee at the National police col­lege. Reports from the police are that at about 9:50 p.m, Brown went to a shop and was shot mul­ti­ple times. He died on the spot.
Constable Brown’s killing is in line with the esca­lat­ing mur­der rate in the Island Nation that has the nation once again find­ing itself as one of the mur­der cap­i­tals of the world.

Student con­sta­ble Duvaughn Brown

The mur­der­ers in Jamaica know that they have the Government of the defense, so they are not wor­ried about consequences.
For the coun­try’s lead­er­ship that decid­ed to bad­mouth the police before being forced to face the con­se­quences, this is the con­se­quence of their actions.
