There is a saying – “You can run but cannot hide.” That is not true in St.Lucia. In this scenario it makes SLU a place where you can both run and you can hide at the same time. Within 238 SQ miles, a prisoner can be on the run and hide for five months – just ridiculous. The police is not be blamed. I am sure they were actively searching for the prisoner. In this case I blame the shit stem in SLU. There is a lesson to be learnt. Any one who is caught hiding such individuals should be fine and confine – no questions ask. If the law exist then it should be enforced. The system should be applied at all times and citizens should be made clear of the laws of the country. SLU should not be a place to habour criminals – they do not belong in the public.
Urll don’t know the story keep quiet
@ anonymous well you know the story can you let us know so we fo not speculate…
ARRESTED FOR BURGLARY, OBSCENE LANGUAGE, THREATENING WORDS, INSULTING WORDS AND ESCAPING LAWFUL CUSTODY? WOW!!!! NO BAIL, BUT WHEN YOU GET ARRESTED FOR ILLEGAL FIREARMS, AMO, BULLET PROOF VEST, RIFFELES AND DANGEROUS DRUGS YOUT BAIL AND LET GO BACK ON THE STREETS. I DONT GET THIS PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME UNDERSTAND.
Well, if he was found in Barre Denis that means he was found at home or at a family member … 🤔
That is not good enough those person or persons that was habouring this fugitive should all go down with this and let the message be told loud and clear that adding and abbetting or harbouring a fugitive is a criminal act and there are consequence for that
Gosh, looking at this pitiful creature the son (?) of a mother making our Police look like a bunch of Boy Scouts? what next, a bearded Worm?
Well TOO COOL, maybe he was in fact offered bail but was unable to meet or pay the amount resulting in him being kept in custody.
