The parent and family members knows that the young boys are involve in criminal activities yet Still they are hiding them when the police are looking for them all they do is smoke crack cocaine and drink rum and steal from hard working people … They refuse to go and work for 3 EC dollars an hour like the rest of us…
We need to support the police . The police need to search every house in vieux Fort both the rich and poor to get the firearms as the criminal does have it in their rooms , ceilings , under the sofas even in the latrines sometimes under mattresses have cuffew from especially on weekends no one should be on the streets after 6 in vieux Fort if you are not working . The police need to get rid of those cockroaches and the parents of the criminals especially those useless women who are uneducated and lack skills as it is them that are encouraging the young boys to steal and commit crime . Even farmers are having a hard time in vieux Fort
And then the magistrates or judges let them off with a slap on the wrist or a fine of 5 thousand dollars to be paid in five years, if in default the 5 months in prison with both day and night being counted as a separate day. day
@Ladd you are correct ..✅
The police needs to keep it going n keep the good 4 nothings on their toes no.rest 4 the wicked
also the government needs to support the police efforts by providing them with more unmarked vehicles even allow the police squads to utilize the use of the use of other government vehicles like ministry of agriculture and ministry of health vehicles ministry of works vehicles ministry of planning vehicles and so on so the criminals will never be able to keep up with the police because you never know how or when the police will show up so when you engage in crime you will always have to look behind you or over your shoulders because that’s where the police will be and of course the judges and prosecutors have to do a better job helping the police keeping those no goods off the steets too
