If anyone has less of a case to keep his job it is BJ Nottage. Crime overall is up significantly over what it was when he took office and murder is up by almost 50 percent. And while there may have been slight decreases year over year within his tenure, every category of crime is up over the 2012 figures. Of course the declining economy has contributed to the increase in crime but the increase represents failure of the minister of national security. And as the world economy appears to be slipping into an even deeper recession (depression?) a further spik in crime can be expected

Any suggestions as to who should replace Nottage?

This government is too full of corruption to do anything about crime. Go talk to the senators's
daughter in the Department of Social Services and find out why she refused to activate the accounts of some of the stores in the back to school assistance program and customers cannot use their prepaid cards to shop at these stores.

The bottom line is crime is a vexing and growing problem in this country. It is no longer about persons and personalities. Is it beyond the name and blame game. Try new efforts and strategies until something works. And if this means bring in new and bright talent then so be it.

Scandal in Social Services Find out why this department is sending all its school assistance participants to two particular stores not allowing persons to shop at stores of their choice. Who getting kickbacks big time?

Just hope this one don't act yag and flirty and it just flies pass

This is the first one with s well formed eye wall and the third one to come our way

Paul was a murderer (of Christians in particular ). And God put him to write most of the bible. The watchman who watches the city without God, watches in vain.

Back in the 80's when cocaine use was an epidemic in these islands, a young woman, who was addicted, called her mother just before taking her life and said, "I have opened the gates to hell and I can't close it back."

Another reason for crime is that there are a lot of angry young men in this society. They may have lost their jobs or cannot find employment. Despite going out and looking for a job unsuccessfully the persons they live with continue to put pressure on them to "find a job and help out with the bills." So not only are they angry at society for not allowing them to make a living, but now they have an ongoing battle with the people they live with. They are hurting inside and feel like an outcast. And so some turn to crime, be it robbery or selling drugs. And it is a fact that when they start to bring money the persons they live with do not question them. They, themselves, are so relieved to have some of the financial burden taken off themselves it doesn't register that their son, or brother or baby daddy is involved with crime. And a lot of times when you see a mother break down in front of the camera after her son has been murdered of arrested for some high profile crime, and hollers "not my good son" that cry is real. It may have been one wrong turn that got him into that situation. Our young men, many of them need help, not more oppression.
