  1. Inquiring minds want to know who the Antiguan father is? School children says that it is a very prominent person in society. If this is true, why wasn’t it mentioned? Would this have been differently outlined if it were someone from the grassroot of society?

    • WATCH YOUR MOUTH OR HAVE IT STITCHED

      Saw no ‘…insinuations’ in the news.

      What has ‘…prominent person’ to do with the ‘…price of tea in China?’

      Anyone who drives, is more than likely to be involved in traffic accidents, be it home or abroad.

      Seems that if you don’t ‘…Watch Your Mouth,’ a surgical procedure may have to be performed to have it ‘…Stitched.’

      • Pompey…
        …”john jones, son of a gun!” …could also be, son of a surgeon!
        …Know that song?
        …”john jones, son of a gun! …America, is not Antigua;
        …even, though money, mo money, and only money!
        … still controls the Judiciary!
        …Is it a fact, that great lawyers;
        …are great liars?
        …Knows how to sway the Judiciary
        …by having them, turn a blind eye!
        …not because of the sly mongoose’s spit!
        …falling from the sky!
        …but because Dog knows his name!
        …and, when it comes to fame!
        …money, mo money, and only money!
        …becomes the turnkey!
        …now, that’s a fact, of society
        …and, the End Game!
        …so, don’t feel sorry
        …for, this big dog is not hungry
        …but, vicious enough to bite you!

  2. Feel so, so bad for this guy. Nice quiet, pleasant, well mannered little boy he was in our community. I can only imagine the fright that made him take flight

    • Nosey? Really? A young man is dead from an out of control, unlicensed driver and left on the side of the road as if he were part of the trash he was cleaning. IMO the biological father needs to do a whole lot of reflection on the subject of missing in action fatherhood.

  3. oh my I am so sorry that this happened. He is a good guy and I can only imagine how he was terrified when this occurred.
