Guidelines For Law Enforcement
& Prosecution Teams?

This is meant with no disrespect to
those that are physically challenged with sight or hearing disabilities.
Where did
it all go wrong? Even when a crime is committed
right in front of witnesses eyes, recorded on CCTV cameras and the preponderance
of evidence is overwhelming, law enforcement and the prosecution fail to
convict! What has happened to right and wrong and pure social values? Oh, that is right, there are none!
Turning a
blind eye is the norm it seems. Doing
one’s job doesn’t matter anymore! The
Monty Python phrase “A Nod’s as good as wink to blind man”, has never been so
apt. Has life’s vales been so diminished
that bribery, corruption and sheer wanton allowance of crime against humanity
is playing out in front of our eyes and we do nothing?
Who is
fooling who?
The Environmental
Protection Agency is worried about polluted rivers, toxins buried underground,
whilst on the surface, so called man
is getting away with Blue Bloody Murder!
Yet another
shooting in any city worldwide is now common place. Gunshots are heard and ignored each and every
minute of the day and night. One
senseless killing of an Australian, brings home a simple message as reported in
the Daily Mail:
Three teens charged
over the murder of 'college baseball star shot dead because they were BORED'
“Duncan
Police say it appears the boys were keeping a log of the crimes on their
Facebook pages and believe they killed an animal before shooting Chris.
They also
think they were planning to kill again just four hours after his murder.
James
Edwards tweeted on last Tuesday - just two days before the shooting - that he
was 'With my n*****s when it's time to start taken life's [sic].'
His
Facebook profile is filled with pictures of him making gang signs, holding guns
and wads of cash and he even has a Vimeo of him brandishing a shotgun.
Chancey
Luna's Facebook also features pictures of him - sometimes with Edwards - making
gang signs.
But two of
the accused teens' parents insist they were not involved in the killing,
according to News.com.au.
'That's my
baby boy,' said the mother of Chancey Luna, who is accused of firing the single
bullet from a handgun into Chris' back.
She said
her son was not in a gang and could not have been the one who pulled the
trigger - as has been suggested - and doesn't even believe he is involved in
the shooting.”
Then
thousands of miles away in an island paradise, more senseless killings are
going on, all gang related. Arrests made
and then we now know most released through lack of evidence.
Trinidad
and Tobago opposition leader is quoted in the Trinidad and Tobago Express:
“ONLY a
“blind” Police Service would arrest a man for the same crime twice in two years
and still not have any evidence to ensure proper charges can be laid.
So said
Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley yesterday, in response to the fact that 59
out of 101 people arrested in East Port of Spain from last Thursday to Sunday
have been freed without being charged.
Among the
high-profile arrests last Thursday were suspected gang members 38-year-old
Cedric “Burkey” Burke and Anthon Boney.
Burke was
released on Sunday.”
“Prime
Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has vowed to crack down on crime on east Port
of Spain and, in keeping with her promise, will return to the area today to
meet with the people.
According
to a release from the Office of the Prime Minister, Persad-Bissessar said the
killings must not continue and every effort will be made to deal with this
pressing situation.
“I think it
is important that I return to east Port of Spain to listen to the complaints
and to see what we as a Government can do to assist,” stated Persad-Bissessar.
“My last
visit was very emotional as it came just days after several teenagers were
killed. This cannot continue, and we must find a way to deal with it very
effectively. I am hopeful that at the end of this meeting, some solutions can
be offered to the residents there,” she added.
Last
Thursday, Persad-Bissessar visited Duncan Street, Port of Spain, where she met
the families of young teenagers, including a pregnant 16-year-old, who were
recently murdered in the area.”
This trend
that is spreading to all corners of the world can be nipped in the bud by doing
the right thing. You have heard that
time and time again and is normally used for show or as an appeasement
statement by a politician. In this case,
it is Tracometry People who are stating fact that an outside source, can and
will stop this senseless lawlessness. We
go back to what the people want! If you
are not listening the streets and dealing with it right there and then, it festers
and becomes ten times worse!
It is
difficult to deal with situations that you are close to, you cannot see the
wood for the trees and ignoring it and praying it is get better on its own, is
foolish!
Bribery,
corruption, insurgency and gang related situations are rife and out of control. Planning has to be a priority, solid planning
without personal attachment. Folks, it
is a war zone out there, whether you like it or not, harsh measures have to be
used to quell the growing problem.
Remember,
you might not read or see the next event on the news, it could have been you!
WE are in the NOW and
KEEP YOU; in the KNOW…
