The plea for help was ignored or not taken serious enough.. It could have saved a life

it would be a good thing if every employer were to grant every employee a mental health day. A mandatory no work contact/calls day that must be taken once per quarter. And call it exactly that to bring attention to the fact that mental health and a strong mind is the most powerful thing anyone can have.

For the spiritual among us its said *we wrestle not against flesh and blood*...Hally Moultrie know what I talking bout, so if its not *flesh and blood* where's the battle? Its in the mind. Guard what your eyes, ears, noses and mouths allow your mind to experience.

Mr. Robert Wright Sr. plea for his son to be transferred fell on deaf ears of insensitive senior officers. Typical of the police!

The police are well known to be void of any sensitivity, common sense, or compassion.

Please just stop it! It’s not the police so much as it is Bahamian culture. Sensitivity and compassion are not common attributes among Bahamian people period!

Grasp every opportunity to bash Bahamians, you worker if iniquity.

Adults are talking now. I’ll play with you tomorrow. In the meantime, go work on your grammar. Use spellcheck if need be. I’ll check your homework before you go to bed.

And it's not so much Bahamian culture, or even COVID-19, as it is Minnis and what he's done to destroy the lives of so many of our people over the last 4 years.

In which job can someone else ask for a transfer of an adult ? He has no standing.

On what basing that statement on? We have to be careful not to get so caught up in emotions. I am deeply sadden for the family lost but first and foremost let us remember that the police force hire men and women, not children. So a father pleading for his son to be transferred to an unfamiliar island is not always best. That is what caused the riot in Bimini many years ago. The best option would be to leave him there where there are resources to help him cope, not a remote island because his father said so. Let's be real now and stop talking for talking sake. What about other Bahamians who are mentally going through the same thing right now? Who is at fault or responsible?

how about a vacation day? just take a vacation day free from people. my heart goes out to the officer , the family, and all whom were affected by this. may we listen to each other , be a little more sensitive, and also put ourselves in the other person's shoes. much prayer and love.

Well his Boss said that men who commit suicide are "weak men", there is obviously no concern for mental health on the Police force, therefore the transfer was not considered.

Bingo!

A man puts a gun to his own head and kills himself instead of seeking out every possible solution to whatever problem he had, even if it was mental health. For the life of me, I can't understand how anybody else is to be blamed for this.

And that's why you're a simpleton, not to mention a die-hard Minnis supporter. Like you, I suspect Minnis is absolutely clueless of the mental anguish and harm his dingbat decisions have caused so many Bahamians since May 2017.

All hail......never ending tributes.....to tribanon.....the highest emperor of indisputable intellect!!!!!

Pleeezzzz.....don't trouble yourself......be seated. lol

The Tribune's reporter, Rashad Rolle, should have investigated and reported on why the father had reason to believe his son would have been less depressed or anguished anywhere but Grand Bahama.
