The public would have seen we’ve upped the use of body cams and dash cams. Wayne Munroe said. The national security minister also stated how Police officers are put before the court in circumstances that are appropriate and that will continue to happen. But we will continue to give the police the same benefit of the doubt that we give persons who go before the court charged with crimes,”. Well how come the last police involve shooting we had where a Defense Force Marine was gunned down and absolutely no body cam footage was released for the general public to see what actually took place between officers and the Marine that allegedly charged at one of the officers on duty that night?

They racist; they do not like black people.

It would be quite easy for the police to bag the hand of the person who the police killed so that the hand could be tested for gunpowder residue and thereby provide solid evidence that the man who was killed by the police had actually fired a firearm. Since the police do not do so the suspicion remains that just possibly the man killed never had a firearm and that the police who killed him was carrying a throwdown gun to justify his action.

Your premise is a bit flawed in the sense that someone doesn't need to discharge a firearm to be considered an active threat. Simply having a gun pointed at you is more than enough reason to be in fear for your life and justify the use of deadly force.

In most cases of police killings, the officer who killed the person has said that the deceased person fired at them first, OK, so why not prove that they did actually fire a gun, it is simple to do and happens in all developed countries. If they did then the police are most probably being truthful. To give trust to a police just because he or she is a police is just silly, there have always been crooked police and always will be.

I mean, I'm pretty sure that they probably perform crime scene forensics in these cases. There has to be a report drawn up for these kinds of incidents and I'm sure all of that is documented.

Body cameras should be standard imo, would remove all doubt about the situation.

So you're saying that when a criminal is directing a weapon at the Police, they have to wait to get shot at before returning fire? This is insane.

Nah ― comrade crown minister, how can it be so if the public 'perceives' ... if 'you' and your constabulary's top brass .... hosts the 'green flag's' mixed **'shoot to ( )'** messages. Crown minister, you never heard the phrase **"violence begets violence, whether the fatal bullet is fired from a crown owned gun. Matters not if wearing crown's security uniform"** ― Yes?

Only white/rich people are presumed innocent until proven guilty ......... If you are black/poor, only God can help you. Where are the white drug dealers who were caught in Exuma??

The exception is when petty vindictive politicians want to crush their rivals ......... then they sell the propaganda that the other fellas (like Adrian Gibson) are guilty from the first day that their henchmen (police) start to "investigate and impound"

@ComradeSheepRunner, Long Island's red House-seated MP Adrian Gibson, like anyone has the same right and expectations of any political person charged with an offence to be presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt...... but like Comrade ``Sister" MyLady Cheryl Grant-Thompson said, in the meantime, Nah ― my court's no Stop n' Shop where you get go browse the isles judge shopping ... And indeed, whilst in MyLady's courtroom, he will remain seated in the prisoner's dock ― Yes?

Tal, you looking for jokes .......... We all know that the "MyLady" you referred to is a political hack for the present Government

@SheepRunner, regardless, isn't it judiciary refreshing that students @Eugene Dupuch Law School, got to see a MyLady sister, presiding over her High Court ... Where a legal challenge to courtroom's seating arrangement ... didn't give way be politically compromised. And, comrade, you get to reside on an out island's settlement where it's a constitutional expectation that a MyLady's family members, has and shall continue to hold and express contrary political views. What's there still to learn about how the **HireCar** businesses are doing in general on your settlement of Long Island ― Yes?

If you learned a bit of history of this country, you would understand why drug dealers can operate in our waters, and it has nothing to do with skin color...

I hear you ....... Everyone has a price and a boss.
