    Should I be really commenting on this article in my usual honest way?? Ok..Mr Benjamin, I think you are over full of it in many ways when it comes to crime and the issues surrounding it. As far as the polices exceptional efforts in apprehending criminals, there is a lot to be disired and don’t talk about maintaining law and order. In other words the police is doing the best they can but it is nothing to brag about. As for you Mr B, I believe you are a major part of the overall problem

      I agree with you that Mr. Benjamin is the problem. We are living in the twenty-first century and the police 👮 haven’t received updated equipment and tools to do their job, including proper uniform and gears. Also, we need our own DNA lab. Another thing Mr. Benjamin, our immigration and border security system needs to be updated it is too open. All around the world are tightening on their homeland security.

    Commend police for what? Have we not seen the brutality leveled against nationals for no reason Some of them grey and old Have we forgotten Manny James. What about that dude that was slammed down in Parham. Have we seriously forgotten about all the wickendess the police are involved in
    What part of Chantel Crump’s findings did the police play a part in. Answer me plz. It was some hard core women who walked day and night, found the car and the police reluctantly went to persue. Come on Benji. Where is the “love”. Let us not forget that the cops are more concerned about drug bust at the airport and illegal firearms. Wonder why these tools are more important than human life. I could go on and on but Antigua.news is not the place for that. Jah Jah see and know
