  1. MURDER UNTIL CONTRARY PROVED

    Investigation into ‘…any death’ shall be guided by the principle that investigators conduct ‘…criminal investigation’ from a possibility that a ‘…Murder’ has been committed.

    They may also;

    (a) ‘…Question any person;

    (b) …Whether or not suspected; and

    (c) …From whom useful information may be obtained’ [Judges Rules: Rule 1].

    An injury or injuries on the body of a deceased person, could mean one of three possibilities;

    (i) …A violent criminal attack- (Crime);

    (ii) …Sustained by an accidental fall- (Misadventure); or

    (iii) …Self-inflicted- (Suicide).’

    The Pathologist would guide the above principle, ‘…Murder Until The Contrary Is Proved,’ by determining the ‘…Cause of Death.’

    Minds, therefore, are to be kept open.

    • NOT SO AT ALL – ATCHU

      Not sure what you understand about ‘…criminal investigations,’ but ‘…Not So At All – ATCHU’ or ‘…Ah True.’

      Neither from a ‘…layman’s perspective’ nor from a ‘…professional perspective’ can such conclusion be reached.

      There is no’…Pathologist Report’ to arrive at such conclusion.

      From ‘…a criminal investigative perspective,’ such has always been the approach ‘…until the Pathologist determines otherwise,’ which by then the ‘…Contrary is Proved.’

      There is never a rush to judgment.

      If the ‘…Pathologist’s Report’ speaks to ‘…non-self inflicted injury or an accidental fall,’ then investigators must look for the perpetrator of a ‘…most brutal and cold-blooded murderer.’

    • No offence my dear, but you seem to have a personal gripe aganist Mr. Pompey and you contining making these asine comments just makes you seem very unintelligent in which I doubt you are.


      • JUST SAYING’ – LET THEM EXPRESS THEMSELVES – SMITTY TALKING

        Now, if what is said or written by ‘…an Ass,’ gets under the skin of these two wonderful people,’ or they are lacking in comprehension,’ then expect them to react ‘…in ways consistent with the culture of tribes in the ‘…Wilds of Africa.’

        So please make this the least of your cares ‘…Just Saying.’

        From research, the experts have determined that there is usually’…an intelligence complex’ in people.

        Evidently, ‘…Nameless and Eulin’ gave the impression that they are ‘…suffering from a serious complex.’

        Rawlston Pompey is no expert, but do know that those endowed with ‘…superior knowledge,’ have called it, ‘…an Inferiority Complex.’

        So please, ‘…Just Saying,’ let them express themselves’ the best way they know how.

        They are clearly offering nothing to these discussions, but ‘…Smit.’

        Such is usually seen as a sign of ‘…Smitty Brain.’

        Again, suspect that this word is incorrectly spelled, but still not correcting it.

        It shows that not only ‘…an Ass’ has them ‘…reading and fuming, but also learning.’

        There is a problem with ‘…civility; …civil behavior; …comprehension; and …civil expression.’

        These are, unmistakable, the realities facing these two people.

        Again ‘…Just Saying,’ do not distress yourself or expect anything better from brains that seemed ‘…Transfixed on ‘…Talking Smit.’

        Just like you have not done, sure ‘…My Antigua’ would not join these’… two misguided goons’ in their ‘…Smitty Talking.’

        No matter the responses, if only for reading my contributions, and their persistence in ‘…Talking Smit, ‘…Rawlston Pompey’ still loves them.

        There is a change coming though.

        It should sadden our hearts, if they both evolve into ‘…Conjoined-Ponies.’

    • POKING FUN – HAVING A LAUGH

      Nah Tap man.

      And feel no way either.

      Soon we might hear you got hooked up.

      To hell with the spelling, and it cannot be with ‘…Peter Dickham.’

      Done ‘…hooked up’ already.

      ANR has just reported so [ANR: January 13, 2020].

      It cannot be with this ‘…Ass’ either. No Sah.

      Never messed around;

      (i) …Anti-Women’

      These are ‘…men with no feelings for women.

      Wrong to call them ‘…anti-men, for they are’… really not against men.’

      They say they love them; …build relationships, to the extent that they can be ‘…married in France.’

      (ii) …Crazy men/women (they unexpectedly kick, bite and spit).

      (iii) …Drunken men/women (they too, kick and fire wild thump).

      Encountered these in my professional career.

      Not sure who the hell she/he is, but stay with Eulin.’

      Would make a good pair. Sorry, couple.

      Just ‘…Poking Fun’ and ‘…Having A Laugh’ with you.

      Do know that others would be laughing as well.

  2. He could have suffered a heart attack, cardiac arrest, a brain aneurysm, or tripped and fell. He could also have been murdered. The autopsy will be performed and we will find out the truth. God bless Paul. He was loved by so many.

  3. Can we please try to remember that Paul has a family and friends to consider and keep your self centered remarks to yourselves.
    Please show some respect for a man who was very well respected by all who knew him.

    • CLEARLY OR MORTALLY AFRAID

      Knew a man called ‘…Fraidy John.’

      He was ‘…Mortally Afraid’ to address people who seemed ‘…transfixed on making senseless utterances.’

      Rawlston Pompey is not like ‘…Fraidy John’ though. No Sah.

      When he addresses certain issues in the news, it is usually from ‘…professional knowledge, training and practical experience.’

      Such is religiously shared with those who wish to know.

      The very first comment on ‘…this most unfortunate incident,’ speaks to that.

      Most certainly, some readers understood to even suggest ‘…possibilities’ as to how the deceased may have met his demise.

      They can easily be identified, ‘…an Owen Browne; …a Real Talk; and a …KayPatriot.’

      Then there is ‘…an ATCHU’ and ‘…Denden’ who seemed to have been doubtful over what he had understood in the comment.

      Clearly they wanted clarification, and that was provided in a second comment.

      There are others who realized that some commenters may have used their brain and their expressions ‘…unwisely, attackingly and offensively.’

      For instance, there is ‘…Just Saying’ who seemed to have detected some form of ‘…malice, hatred or bitterness.’

      Rawlston Pompey remains ‘…unfazed; …unmoved; …and unrelenting,’ whatever the heck these words mean.

      Do like the interaction.

      Though they are not ‘…Wild Goats,’ after a while, they are tamed.’

      Ask my ‘Caribarena’ friends ‘…Duncy Bat; …Tenman; and of course, …Brethren Ras Smood.’

      We are still ‘best;’ Na-a-ah, good friends.

      These comments are often fused with a ‘…A Little Bit of Humor.’

      Don’t we have a’… picturesque book’ call ‘…A Little Bit of Paradise?’

      Though not on the same issues, the nation also shares this token with the outside world.

      However, when you have people ‘…Talking Smit,’ they ought to, and must know that they have ‘…Smitty Brain.’

      There is still ‘…respect to the dead’ and ‘…concern for the living.’

      So ‘…dig notten’ John, and please let not your poor little heart be troubled.
