  1. Honestly I am speechless … how do you expect to bring illegal guns under control when you constantly let people out on bail for such a little amount????????????

  2. smh you stupid jack**** thats twelve grand your parents could have used to do something meaningfully but you want to be a so called bad man.

  3. The justice system is behaving like a deck of cards in which every card is a joker!!!

  4. so what you all want send them to prison and use tax money to feed them while they in the demanding what they what to eat and I have to pay tax to feed them? isvtga what you all want

  5. @meme you should keep your idiotic comment to yourself because basically what you are saying is that it’s ok for these guys to be out there with illegal guns killing themselves or innocent people

  6. most of these bail’s are not cash paid it can be a deed or something of value to the amount and these guys walk free. above all this is encouragements by the magistrate for these said individuals to go back into society, target the officers and commit more crimes. like i said the court is encouraging crime in st. lucia.
