This man should be jailed for life.
This government in Antigua is so corrupt. Word on the street is, people who have family members who know big people in Antigua, will just make a phone call and get their family out of quarantine and now they can go lime as they please
People are liming and boasting saying, oh my man just call so and so and they tell me I can leave.
This government does not have the best interest of Antigua in mind and they are some of the most bias and discriminatory of all, the Likkle man will never get ahead because u always need a pull string.
If you are quarantining do it for all. I know a big man that call and say oh she don’t have no corona man she was in New York and she was staying safe and the woman was released.
Most people from nyc fly to Miami to get the flight to Antigua. And they are all running lose in Antigua, no test and no quarantine.
Four years is way too little time for such disgusting offence-however can you please tell me what the hell does this have to do with Quarantine and Government.For God’s sake stop involving politics in every dam thing-there is more to life than Politics.Give me a brake.
Are you daft ? Nothing you said connects. Think ! Just THINK !
These guys getting off way too easy…he might even be out before that. The court need to start give these guys life and send a message to the others out there. This happening too often in Antigua
MORE JUSTICE FOR CRIMINALS
Read Commentary: (right here at Antigua News Room; June 7, 20200.
‘JUSTICE-ON THE ALTAR OF EXPEDIENCY.’
You will, probably, get a better understanding of what obtains within the ‘…Criminal Justice System.’
The darn criminals ‘…getting more justice, than the victims.’
System has ‘Covid.’
Dar virus slowly ‘…killing off Justice.’
Where are the parents/ guardians of this child?
Where is the parental guidance?
In my opinion the parents/ guardians should be blamed.
This is a child not an adult, society always looking down on the child as well, blame the parents, they brought them into this world. Some of the parents dash them on grandparents or abandon them, or dash them on other family who don’t care and sometimes even abuse the child/ children. In my opinion all this has to happen because if the parents are still immature both mentally and physically and irresponsible then woe onto the little children who they bring forth !
Parents have the biggest roles and responsibility in their child/ children’s life, especially the upbringing in their early childhood.
We know that society is now most cruel and mean and this makes it one billion times more a priority for parents to take up their responsibilities. Again, Blame the parents or guardians !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blame the parents? Are you kidding? For a grown ass man to prey on a child and rape her you want to blame the parents. Thanks to the parents for reporting and seeing that some kind of justice was done.(albeit he only got 4.5 yrs). They chose not to take a bribery and sweep the incident under the carpet as many parents often do.
Another CARICOM immigrant ruining Antigua. Why does Antigua continue to let these CARICOM immigrants in? Whey are we a member of CARICOM to begin with, it doesn’t do anything for us at all!
Withdraw from CARICOM now and stop these weirdo immigrants coming in to our lovely island-nation!
Just letting you know that all the xenophobia towards other Caribbean people that I keep reading from some Antiguans is ugly and ignorant.
Stop acting like you’re better than other people. You’re not.
I’m not from the Caribbean and believe me, the rest of the world doesn’t think Antiguans are better than other Caribbean people. So stop being a small-minded bigot.
Antiguans do the same crimes….many Antiguan men f*^*” underage girls. They also commit robbery and murder. Crime is wrong no matter the nationality of the perpetrator. Find solutions and stop making ignorant comments!
I am Antiguan-but you said it soo right…Now is not time for people to be talking about separation of Islands either-Integration is what’s needed now..There are soo many Antiguan Men with young School girls-so i have no idea what foolishness that person is talking about..
You sound stupid! They are Antiguans who also commit these kind of crimes.
If your father was wearing condom, it could have prevented us from seeing this bs comment.. Anyway that POS should be castrated, is these mfos fk off their own kids.. Sad and disgusting.. The justice system sucks..
Withdrawing from CARICOM won’t stop the “weirdo immigrants” as you say. You really should be careful what you type. The same way you want to stop immigrants from coming by opting out of CARICOM, is the same way you won’t be able to travel and stay freely. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
You are 100% correct. The only thing we get from CARICOM is criminals.
This SENTENCE is a JOKE. That Paedophile should have a Sentence in DOUBLE FIGURES.
This fool should be casturated by court order. Then lock him up for 20 years. The only positive thing in all this is the boys at 1735 don’t like pedophiles. He’s going to have a hellava hard time. Prison justice can be very nasty.
Just 4 and a 1/2 years for having sex with a 12 year old girl.I thought that would be considered to be RAPE.As a matter of fact Statutory Rape and nothing less.Shop lifters have been known to have gotten more time in jail that this Rapist Criminal.Which one of the Courts was this matter heard.The HIGH COURT with a Judge and Jury and or the Magistrate Court.After he has served his sentence.DEPORT HIS ARSE.
thats why i leave men alone cause i have a daughter who is the same age and i tell u i have already made up my mind to torture and kill because the justice system is down right bull kaka.
