Victim and his brother are both on RBPF wanted posters for murder enquiries...

The fact that this man was murdered on the doorstep of our cruise ship industry in broad daylight seems to have escaped you, some people just don't get it.

Hasn't escaped me at all, for that to happen where it did and only a half a block away from a police station is despicable...what I find equally disturbing though is that this person was on a wanted RBPF poster, yet he is working a mainstream job driving a bus for a high visibility company such as Stuart's Cove. The police lack of ability to find and track people is shameful...or they just aren't even trying to look.

The RBPF posters are like bounties... By the time the police find them, they will most likely be dead.

So does a PLP return to power mean another 5 years of 650 murders? they have put fort no plan to deal with it.

When one goes down Bay Street during daytime hours, there are police on every corner and in the middle of the street directing (obstructing) traffic, and doing God knows what else. There is a proliferation of clubs and restaurants spots in the Prince George Wharf area, and at night, which are their busy hours, and the hours most likely for a crime to occur, the police are gone. Ever try calling a police station at nighttime? Good luck.
