When these people get caught, and they will! No soft Justice!! Minimum of five(5) years for possession of. Firearm!! On top of the sentence for the robbery…..
Does anybody know where the criminals are from?
BORN ANTIGUANS!!!
I believe they from antigua the jamaicans teaching them but not telling the not to get catch part.
You’re talking ignorance now, stop blaming Jamaicans! Antiguans don’t know how to commit crime on their own???
Thanks @ LOVE……at least u have common sense.
Once Again Origin. Antiguan born…… Cant be true.
Only foreigners commit crime.
How would these guys know this man had a payroll on him? And the bullet only grazed his head?? Shaking my head.
Waladli I wonder myself.
Inside job. They take the little they are paid per day then seek to pay themselves by grabbing the entire payroll. This was happening quite a lot a few years back and stemmed from using cash to pay rather than checks. That in itself is problematic because bosses wanted their workers to work until 4pm rather than giving time off to go the bank. In addition, some of the workers were illegal and did not have bank accounts.
Sorry to hear but please Mr Hardy and whoever else, pay checks and give the time off so they can change them. Your life is worth more than this.
This is a true story. Once upon a time in Swetes – this year as a matter of fact – a house was broken into three times in one month. Monies were stolen twice from the said house. Fingerprints were taken by the Police and they received certain information. The End.
And if dem bruk in you house and dem dead or you bang dem imagine dem waan charge you. Anybody me ketch inna fu me house dat nuh fu deh we shall see and when me drive me carry me bullbud. Me haffu protect me pickney an dem plus me. Ah you mussa mad.
What the hell does it matter where the criminals are from? I fine in Antigua, Antiguan are too quick to blame other national for crimes. Well wake up because Antiguan are also committing serious crimes. It’s not like the Antigua of old….Dem no want to work. Just everything now, rather than having to work for it!!
And yes I am also Antiguan!!
@ amethis…i wish they would listen to u. Alot of dark ignorance going around on these matters.
This is the encouragement police and prosecutors, and even political leaders give these criminals when they are arresting folks for using reasonable force in good-faith acts to prevent and stop crimes and criminals. It will continue and sadly the little people will suffer.
Guns?What Guns? Crimes?What Crimes?There are no guns and or crimes in Antigua and Barbuda.The only crimes if any would be white collar.And not one of them going to Prison.Take a look at the costs overrun on the Government Constructions.I am waiting to see an arrest or arrests in those matters.Those costs overrun were incurred without the use of a gun.However,in my opinion many tax paying citizens were robbed,blindly.
You are correct! Yes, these types crimes, “blue collar” will have an effect/impact on those individuals who these street level thugs are targeting; however, the “while collar” crimes which those in mini skirts, hubbles, polyester suits and ties are committing affects, nor just several individuals, but the entire Nation!
It is my opinion, that once CRIME is addressed, in its entirety from forensic audits to drone surveillance to prosecution to conviction, there will be a reduction in all levels of crime.(hail me cyan wish pan de rainbow’s end).
We need to put an end to this now.
Once CRIME is addressed on ALL levels, blue collar thugs, to white collar thugs to mini skirt thugs, crimes in the Nation will increase like a hurricane going from a Cat 1 to a Cat 5, in the blink of an eye!
Street level crimes, usually take their ‘leads’ from the Culture which surrounds them…
…Bear In Mind!
…habits, become Norms!
…norms, become A Way Of Life!
…a way of life, define A People!
…a people, define A Culture!
…said CULTURE, will in Time!
…in some Space!
…predicates, and dictates!
…the directions, which said People takes@
…because, Life Is Cyclic!
…please, Bear Thiz In Mind!
Me a forward, fu now
Jumbee Picknee!
