Good job to that person who turned him in. U do the crime do the time aswell.
Must have been hard for his parents to do that according to this report, I pray God be with you, and thanks for up holding the law. If he is innocent, he will be set free, and if he is guilty, you’re probably saving your self from danger.
Sometimes I wonder if older people are behind of alot of this. I lived abroad for most of my life before moving back. I worked for the Police Association for many years, may it be only in the capacity of lobbying for criminal legislation. These things are real drivers of youth violence. They believe they matter and they are part of something no matter how wrong it is. Never mind peer pressure.
For example our biker gangs would have the young ones go out and commit crimes, carry out assaults, and sometime participate in hits as part of an initiation to a certain group. Is it possible this youth gang problem is being fueled by this same thing.
These youths are facing a crisis of belonging and lack of self worth. Until we address the root causes, which are many, it will only get worse. Politicians, parents, and society will have to play a roll. However, what we do know is that poverty, lack education and lack of services ( Mental, medical, financial) will certainly contribute to this stunning breakdown of the society inwhich we live.
Parents are stepping up to their responsibilities it’s better now to trying to save him now that we know he has anger issues and just maybe other vulnerabilities so he can be rehabilitated early and live a good productive life as a citizen rather than to enable him to continue on a path of destruction for himself and family and so other families must step up if they know their children are falling short and up to bad things save them early by reporting them every one knows the story of the young man that bit off his mothers ear so report them so change and good can come to them through rehabilitation
I am sorry this matter happened.However,I thought crimes in Antigua were over,no more.Those young people did not get the memo.
Congratulations, for doing the right thing it’s best to report them now or wait until it’s crying time . At least he will be given a chance at rehabilitation and can become a productive citizen later it’s time that parents step up and report their bad children it’s best to do it now every one knows the story of of the boy who bit off his mothers ear and what he told her , don’t let your ears get bitten off report them and give them a chance to be rehabilitated. You will cry today but laugh tomorrow.
This must be one of the more difficult thimg to do. Turn in your child to the Police. But in life, the correct choices are usually the hardest.
Hopefully the victim pulls through and the offender learns and recovers from this.
Wata donnors kids
I pray the victim recuperates fully and swiftly.
Kudos tobthe parents for such remarkable and bold step. It must be heartbreaking, but it’s the right thing to do.
I’m sure his parents would prefer to drop him off at boarding school instead of a jail, but…
I also pray the villain is repentant and in time rehabilitated
Parents protecting their children, in cases like this, let me advise “Yesss+++” is more instinctive than “Antiguan”.Why do some people always throw Antigua under the bus in everything great and small???.🤔🤔
That being said, the parent(s) must be commended for doing the right thing. As painful as it might have been for you to do, as a parent, you did the right and proper thing. Hopefully your might inspire other parents facing similar dilemmas to do the right thing. Turn them in to law enforcers to face the consequences of their actions. Do not condone bad/criminal behavior.
Remember, however, that children do not become criminals overnight.
Huge shoutout to this parent for knowing right from wrong!
A change for once the parents are not protecting these young people
Lock him up and throw away the Keys. Stop the evil ways.
Well done parent. We need more like you. Never put hand in fire for your children.
Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it
This is a change. Usually parents in antigua uphold their children in their wrong. None of this is happening in this family. Good parent. Kudos to you. No criminal in your home
Very good parent his blood shall not be on your shoulder.
Actually, [occurrences] such as these which are producing this type of criminal behavior, a majority of time, it’s more (mentally), than just #Parental_Control.
A… Smart TV, I_Phones, communicating devices – AI(of which parents are; simply, a different characterization) all have #PARENTAL_CONTROLS; yet, youths and even adults find ways to circumvent the safety nets and, or safeguards which these CONTROLS are suppose to manage one’s behaviour.
B…Ironically, I don’t read as many comments or even critical and demeaning ones, about PARENTING when it comes to youths or ADULTS who are committing other serious crimes. Please remember, the age/time span between a parent(s) and child never changes until death.
(i)…who is to be blamed, for the behavioral traits of #PETRI_DISH, #DESIGNER_BABIES, those artificially inseminated? Next, those that are adopted by the well to do, just for show but have them raised/trained/indoctrinated by Nannie’s, Surrogates and the likes.
The psychology of molded the HUEman thought process(es) from preconception to conception to ADULT/PARENT is way beyond, simply parent/guardian understanding, of the CHILD_ADULT_PARENT interactions in, of, through life.
@The Wire…Antigua definitely DO NOT WANT NO PARTS of “The_Wire” to be normalized in the Nation. This is an OG aka UNK who still keep and hold #My_Space on MURA Street, Wire City, Baltimore City County, USA. We added a “d” between the R & A for DEATH, and called it murDa Alley.
Finally, as it relates to this particular case, without knowing “the facts,” and regardless, of the facts which surround this case, EVERYONE in the vehicle, at the TIME of the crime should at least be charged with ATTEMPTED MURDER and MURDER, if the victim dies.
