What reasons could PMH be stalling this man’s transfer to the US?
Could it be they’re waiting for Mr Brice to pass away thus negating the need for an immediate exposure of their negligence to Jacksonville and thus to his loved ones?
Far better to wait out that day by insuring for a long delayed coroners report and civil suit…

Only in the Bahamas… a young man would be forced to trade the promise of his efforts in school and life by those charged with safeguarding his life.
And a million bucks is supposed to be a just compensation? How is this enough to pay for his past and future medical needs?
His Mother’s livelihood ruined because the RBPF refused their responsibility for their heinous act.
Despicable.

Goodness me but your shrill & convenient suspension of reality is so tiresome..
Do you think that Bahamians do not know that the hill from which all corruption flows is responsible for all this country’s ills?

And that anyone such as yourself has any credibility when constantly accusing those who call out corruption as corrupt??

The USDEA has operated covertly in the Bahamas for decades with tacit ‘permission’ of the government.
In the end despite all this posturing & outrage I’m reading here from Mr Munroe on down, the Bahamas needs the United States not the other way round. Case closed.

One has to feel for this Father and his family.
A criminally liable police officer still on active duty “protecting citizens”?
And despite all these damning facts having been known by the RBPF when they first investigated Off Samual Rolle’s criminal behaviour that caused young Philip Clare Jr’s death?

A Coroner’s Report that takes 8 years to produce, another two years just to start the process of bringing this Rolle, this outstanding example of police corruption to “justice”?

If the RBPF doesn’t have the decency to attempt some semblance of respect for the victims and their families they continue to so grievously harm, what are the odds they believe in and/or conduct themselves within their sworn duties to uphold the laws of this land?
Protect the lives of Bahamians?

This article reads as a sympathetic portrayal of the Morley family and I take issue with that sympathy. We read of a family upset and concerned that their aunt and Mother’s mental incapacity was ignored by the RBPF who treated her badly.

Yet the son didn’t contact the police, didn’t turn himself in after his dog tore up & almost killed a little girl, instead he left his poor incapacitated Mum to be held accountable for his negligence. He, his family knew the dog was vicious but were fine with his Mum, a woman with dementia in charge of the animal.

I also noticed there is no word of concern nor regret from this family about little Shayla whom they’ve maimed and traumatized for life.
But the RBPF are the bad guys…huh.

Right. And that’s working real good huh?

“The experts say…”, there are no “experts” quoted in this piece as this statement is attributed to those who wrote this piece to protect themselves.

And why are you subjecting us to your deranged conversations with others? Isn’t it enough reading your own posts?

It is the job of our elected members & government to account with diligence to the people of The Bahamas as to their governance of the economy, national security & society.

So when monies in any government fund are removed without merit, without regards to the laws governing said fund, AND then show up as vouchers worth millions distributed & signed by PLP candidates just before an election, then yea, this deserves a bru-haha!

There is nothing to suggest that Mr Fitzgerald did anything wrong…”?!
Nothing except the timing of these withdrawals of $238M and $1.5M just prior to the May election.

The fact that these vouchers were distributed by PLP candidates in the waning days of what was predicted to be a blow to their majority.

The fact that monies were coming into and out of this fund without any of the legally obligated oversight is highly suggestive of its true purpose, a party slush fund.

Another feel good, looks good in church law.
Will this be yet another ballyhooed effort with no force of will? No fruition?
A grand commission of oversight that never meets, is never enforced?

And don’t tell us all about this hiring of social workers, etc., for we have the same laws, the same officials and officers that pretend to guard and enforce the rights of our children.
Yet the cases of parental laxity fill our media: neglect, malnutrition, abuse, incest and pedophilia, government “care homes” are filled to over capacity.

If we lack the will and the means to prosecute the parents, grandparents, and relatives of the children they refuse to acknowledge let alone support, how can we hope to do the same for our vulnerable elderly?

The next time one reads the columns-long lists of relatives in the obits of the dearly departed ask yourself why is it that when a child is in danger of harm and/or abandonment the list of the ‘dear ones’ is nonexistent?

We need to enforce the rights of our most vulnerable children by disenfranchising the ties of those who abandoned them, thus allowing adoption by responsible parents.
Force them to pay for their care, their needs?
Hopefully this might allow space to house the elderly also so abandoned because that’s the other gaping hole in this bill, forcing folks who would refuse a child to care for their aged.

What’s going on here?
Animal Control euthanized the dog immediately after the attack last Wednesday, but a week later the criminally reprehensible owner is still running around at large??
