   Since these Statistics are being presented as a count
   I think it would be in the best interest of and for the people that the AG released information on those bodies found within the past 6 -8 months as to cause of death
   I can count at 6 deaths where accountability by govt has not been given or forthcoming
   Not to mention Natalie death which still remains shrouded in suspicion to truthfulness by govt
   Also those deaths by fire and bodies found in grave
   A govt who promised transparency lays low on things accountable to the people

   @ ManyPussy

   You have to be very careful when you comment on dysfunctional systems in government

   For example you said and I quote

   “…The fact that this issue remains like a revolving door states their is an uncontrollable lack of good governance coming from present govt…”

   “Revolving door”!!!

   If an object revolves THAT MEANS PRIOR MOTION!

   This is 2018 and “revolving” means 2017 WHEN YOUR SET OF IMPS were in RH power!

   What was the death count during Adriel Slit Eyes Nitwit’s tenure again?

   Shut to RH up dip shy$e on those topics you and your lot were complicit in!

   Like Ms Ram, Hyatt, look most 98 % of the topics on BU!

    De ole man WILL NOT MENTION where this proposal was made BECAUSE IT WILL ONLY CAUSE ADDITIONAL…

    If you are prepared to listen, THEN YOU WILL SEE SUCCESS, but if you continue to have your strings pulled by…..YOU WILL FAIL!

    The concept of IMPORTING SPECIALISED EXPERTISE IN CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION was and is THE ONLY WAY TO DESTROY AND DISRUPT THE DRUG BARONS.

    1.The imported HR has no local allegiances.

    2.Their job, reputation and compensation ARE ALL TIED TO ONE THING!

    RH SUCCESS!

    You Reverend Atherley will notice that EVERY SINGLE TOPIC THAT I GIVE YOU INSIGHTS ON, IS REMOVED FROM THE MOST VISITED LIST!

    Because what I post WILL WORK!!!

    I will continue to give you and the PdP information about how you can win the General Election in 2021 but, after a while, even such a commitment to Advancing Our Country Barbados, can waver, Joe.

    I will persevere as long as I can.

    In the Western World do any of you people know what is the most wished for thing by bad boys?

    “…let me live to see Old Years Night…?

    People, throughout their lives, make these statements in their minds

    I want to live to see my graduation

    I want to live to see my first car

    I want to live to see my first child or children graduate

    I want to see my first grandchild…

    Simple things really, nothing changes under the son.

    But, in a country with a Prime Minister inviting druglords to Parliament, we can at least understand, even if we dont identify with it, the short term thoughts of these walking corpses DOOMED TO TAKE A FEW MORE BREATHS BEFORE 2020.

    and this is why the People’s Party for Democracy and Development has to up its game and get busy with its message of Change and Hope!

    People see the 53 deaths of The Mugabe Regime and every one of these youth “want to see more of life”

    But the Mugabe Options, WHICH SHE LOCKS THEM UP FOR, THE SAME DRUGS SHE AND HER DRUGLORD FRIENDS ARE NOW PROTECTEDBY LAW TO GROW, are the very thing that is killing them!

    “I WANT THE PdP TO GET UP AND DO THEIR JOB, so that our youth get options AND OUR SONS DONT GET MURDERED…”

    Among de tings de ole man is guilty of IN ADDITION TO SEDITION, is causing the murders

    yes, apparently de ole man has bee accused of “thinking these homicides into being” an act which, in addition to the seditious acts against the Mugabe Regime will get de ole man 3 times the INCARCERATION period dat Agard get loss way in Dodds for!

    Rondell Alexander, and 47 other people (unofficially 53) WILL NOT BE AMONG THOSE who “will live to see Old Years Night”

    And while the apologists fight hard to decrease the numbers of the dead, the fact is that this administration is overseeing the very worst death rate in the history of Barbados WHERE BETS ARE UNOFFICIALLY BEING MADE ABOUT THE DATE IT WILL HIT 50!

    You had asked de ole man about the seeming cuteness of the Leader of the Opposition Reverend Atherley about these murders.

    That he is quiet has been attributed, BY SOME, to be a sign that he is a Mugabe plant AND CAN ONLY TAKE HIS INSTRUCTIONS FROM HER!

    De ole man WILL NOT GO THERE, but what I’d will say is that thes is a noticeable absence of other options as it relates to Crime and Murder and Violence coming from the PdP.

    What is its message AND WHERE IT THAT MESSAGE AND COUNTER?

    There is something that you should notice here

    Here is the US Travel Advisory for Barbados PRE THE GATHERING 2020!

    “…BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, Monday November 9, 2015 – Barbados is the latest Caribbean country to be hit with a travel advisory because of crime.

    In a security message for American citizens, the Embassy based in Bridgetown today advised of “a recent surge in robberies involving the use of firearms and high levels of violence…”

    and here is the UK one

    “…there have been incidents of violent crime including armed robbery, sexual assaults and gang-related shootings.

    2019 has seen an increase in the murder rate, primarily gang related and involving guns.

    Some incidents have taken place in populated and public areas.

    You should remain vigilant at all times and in all locations…”

    The one for Canada reads

    “…Safety and security
    Crime

    Petty crime, such as pickpocketing and purse snatching, occurs.

    There are also incidents of violent crime, including armed robbery and sexual assault…”

    De ole man will comment about Canada’s though.

    I would figure that killings, violent assault, armed robbery and sexual assault would be mentioned before Purse snatching though.

    But, as you are reading them, you get the message countries FROM WHICH SIGNIFICANT TOURISTS ARRIVE, are getting right?

    “But, as you are reading them, you get the message countries FROM WHICH SIGNIFICANT TOURISTS ARRIVE, are getting”.

    🙂 How can you conflate crime with tourism? 🙂

    Did you see big plans for new hotels? We welcome the new jobs (temporary/permanent) that will be created.

    If tourism is our one egg in the basket, we have to figure out a way to make every Joe citizen realize how fragile this industry is. We have to provide opportunities to increase his direct participation so that he helps protect the product.

    Have these new plans included the average Bajan?
    How can I a simple Bajan put in his two pennies in this big project.
    Is my only role to be that of hotel/tourism staff?

    What I am saying is that the small man has to be invested in more than serving tourists.

    Thezet big plans have to be more than just putting real money in a few pockets.

    To a hungry man without any connection to tourism, a tourist may a ticket to a quick meal.

    Let’s get all invested.

    Many will ask how was this title achieved by de ole man.

    And the answer is that it is not hard ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS KEEP EXPOSING THE TRUTH and pretty soon it adds up!

    When de ole man predicted these deaths among de many people who jump pun my back was the Honourable Blogmaster

    I remember that well as he start to talk bout how de ole man delighting in de deaths LIKE EFFIN I WAS DID KILLING DE PEOPLE!

    And, for this entire 8 months after my prediction HE ENT SAY ONE WORD TO MUGABE MOTTLEY BOUT SHE “CONTRIBUTIONS” to the deaths!

    Not one word!

    In fact, far from decrying his saviour of the economy I believe that he gine have a 50ty death anniversary WHICH RECOGNISES MUGABE FOR HER STERLING CONTRIBUTIONS TO THIS ANARCHY

    “…50th Anniversary Rewards Ceremony

    50 instances of Murder is an accomplishment — a major accomplishment for Barbados that will be celebrated by Druglord families and friends of these Druglords AT PARLIAMENT BY MUGABE MOTTLEY AND HER WELL WISHERS.

    Dress in Black is preferred AND YOU CAN COME STRAPPED WITH A GLOCK, just in case Attorney General Teets decide he gone pull he gun pun you to shoot you in Parliament yard.

    We are where we are because we like it so, AND THE PdP leadership is coddling the Party in Power “cause, according to Atherley “they are doing a fine job or governing”!!!

    “She explained that while it was no secret that the increase in violence in communities across the island was having an impact on the QEH, the hospital had also been alerted about pending scenarios where persons wanted to enter the hospital to get to patients who were being treated for gunshot wounds.

    She added that in light of this development, the QEH would also be strengthening its internal security efforts, by placing extra security particularly at wards where there are patients who were connected to gun violence.”

    It was reported that the young man was shot at 7:30 p.m. on December 29. As of 6:44 p.m. of December 30, twenty-hours have not yet passed.

    Social media is often too fast and grossly irresponsible as well. Let the police do their work in informing the parents, spouses and children and other close relatives, of the death. People who take pictures of dead bodies and circulate them via social media are GROSSLY IRRESPONSIBLE.

    A child of a friend of mine died in a traffic accident. The parent was sent a photo of the accident scene with the broken body of the child before the parent had even heard that there had been an accident.

    Imagine thinking that your child is alive and well and some fool sends you a photo of you beloved child’s mangled dead body.

    I too have had a close young relative die horribly (traffic accident). It is not easy. Images seen can NEVER be erased. I pray that it will never be your child nor mine.

    What a dam shame planning more lies and deceptions
    Sooner or later people gonna get tired and fed up.of govt games

    month after the news of a triple murder rocked Barbados, the victims’ bodies are still to be buried and at least one family member wants to know why it took so long for autopsies to be performed.

    Hollist Webb is demanding answers from the Coroner’s office about why the body of his brother and two other men murdered on Independence Day remained in the morgue for four weeks without autopsies.

    The 51-year-old is accusing authorities of totally ignoring the feelings of his family and ruining their holiday season by leaving them waiting in vain to plan a funeral for their slain relative, Cecil Webb.

    On Saturday, Webb’s body was released to the family. But it was too late for many of his relatives who had come home to grieve and bury him.

    “My brother got murdered. If in two weeks’ time we were able to bury him, at least we would know he isn’t just lying in a freezer somewhere. He would have been buried and gone and we could have started to rebuild instead of having to now go through the process of burying him,” said the upset brother.

    “No one has ever issued an apology explaining the reason why it happened. The thing about it is that it happened on a day like November 30th, which we believed, would be memorable in people’s minds.”

    He added: “I had family that came in and spent two weeks and had to get back to work and they will have to miss the funeral. For Christmas we did nothing. Even my family members overseas did not hang up lights or give gifts or celebrated Christmas as they used to before,” Hollist said dejectedly.

    On November 30th, Cecil Webb, 49, of Lower Walkers; Terry Small, a man in his late forties, of Walkers; and Lennox Browne, 48, of Walkers, all in St Andrew were killed in a bloody dispute reportedly over land.

    When Hollist spoke to Barbados
    TODAY on Monday, he indicated the bodies of the two other men were also released on Saturday.

    “I am not just speaking on the behalf of my family but on behalf of all the families. I know in Barbados many people let things happen and they don’t seem to have the guts or the balls to speak out but that is why things are always like this. We let people do things and get away with it. That is why I speak on behalf of all of the families because I know they also have to be frustrated,” he said.

    Efforts to reach the Coroner’s office as well as Attorney General Dale Marshall for an explanation were unsuccessful.

    But according to Hollist, the process may have taken even longer had he not contacted someone who assisted in having the procedure “fast-tracked”. He said he was informed that a pathologist had to come from “one of the islands” to conduct the autopsies.

    “Usually autopsies don’t happen on Saturdays but we had to let them know that the family really needed to get some closure and it is taking too long for a body to be there,” he complained, while adding that the sting of his brother’s death still lingered.

    “With my family, it is hard, because I buried my dad on the 6th of November and then this tragic incident was really too close because I had not even gotten over my father.

    “You don’t sit down and study these things but there are constantly on your mind. You’re out there crying, you’re driving and you have to pull over and you’re in the grocery store and tears come. It’s really hard,” he said.

    Despite the “unprecedented” number of killings, most of which were executed through gunplay, Marshall told Barbados TODAY he was satisfied enough was being done to bring the situation under control.
    He also told barbadians to stay the course

    What do you expect the man to say? But I wonder what exactly he means by “stay the course” in this context.

    “Stay the course” is the logo for the new election campaign
    It is now being used to condition the minds of barbados with an approach of make believe that govt has everything under control
    With more than 49 murders and only govt giving the official tally the people minds have been drawfed into a state on malicious indifference as to what is happening
    No accountability or transparency and the people have no other choice but to stay the course

    “What do you expect the man to say? But I wonder what exactly he means by “stay the course” in this context.”

    Hmmmmm………

    I was wondering the same thing.

    However, to be fair to Marshall, he inherited a situation where the incidents of “gun crimes” were steadily increasing and “gun men” went about killing their foes with brazen assurance.

    For example, in 2017, Barbados recorded 31 murders, of which 21 were as a result of shootings.

    Before we do like the resident yard-fowl and ignore the inaction of the previous AG to blame the current one for the escalation in murders, we must be reminded that being in Opposition for 14 years was enough time for the DLP to formulate a comprehensive plan for crime.

    Likewise, the BLP seeing the trend in murders and crime in general, had 10 years to also develop a comprehensive plan to tackle crime as well.

    However, to be FAIR to both Brathwaite and Marshall, the police said majority of murders committed in Barbados in 2019 have been targeted, execution-style killings and admitted this trend was proving problematic for RBPF.

    During a press conference on June 18, 2019, CoP Griffith said “Our intelligence points clearly to many of these murders being the result of individuals choosing to settle disputes themselves. These were not random killings, many were targeted.

    “The crime though is somewhat different in that they are execution-type crimes for the most part, which creates some difficulty,” he added.

    The CoP’s analysis is easily applicable to the shooting deaths in 2017 and 2018 as well, if you examine them carefully.

    But, as with everything else in Barbados, we have people politicizing crime.

    The sorry arse AG would not be excused his big mouth opened in the last ten years and stated that Brathwaite should resigned
    So now he is at the helm what are his answers nothing
    Now the situation has worsened and the AG goes to the media with a cockeyed explanation talking b/s about staying the course
    The whole bunch should be locked up now seeing the state of barbados social environment decay and the large and in charge ministers have no answer

    @ Donna
    @Mariposa aka

    “Stay the Course” is another way of saying “Expect More Brutal Killings in 2020” which will be the Year when Bajans “return” to true mayhem and social upheaval!

    There are some “patterns” here that bear serious mention for the few bajans that notice AND THE FEWER BAJANS THAT CARE ABOUT THESE INSIGNIFICANT BODIES OF POOR BLACK PEOPLE!

    The first elements IN THIS PATTERN should be seen in this statement

    “…Efforts to reach the Coroner’s office as well as Attorney General Dale Marshall for an explanation were unsuccessful…”

    Did either of you notice that inability to reach the BLP ADMINISTRATION when the Black Belly Sheep bones were transported to Ghana?

    NO! IN FACT EVERY RH DAY BAJANS WERE WATCHING MUGABE PUN A VIDEO as she moved her 357 lbs lard ass about in Ghana.

    So 300 plus year bones, THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY IN GHANA, get more publicity and response than the families of two murdered bajans!

    But Mottley and Teets Marshall are animals who dont give one shy$e about poor ass bajans so dat doan mean one chvunt to dem

    In fact let me use Teets Marshall words to substantiate what I just said!

    “…Despite the “unprecedented” number of killings… Teets Marshall was satisfied ENOUGH WAS BEING DONE to bring the situation under control…”

    52 murders! AND YOUR 87 TEETED SELF can be so RH stoopid to say “ENOUGH WAS BEING DONE”

    Every time that idiot Attorney General opens his mouth he says something Stoopid

    Does he not understand that enough means “an adequate quantity; a quantity that is large enough to achieve a purpose?”

    At no point, even when you have 1 murder, DO YOU USE THE WORD “ENOUGH” never!

    That word is RH INSENSITIVE AND THOUGHTLESS and shows a callous disregard towards the family of the victims and the feelings of your citizenry

    But DONT FORGET, MIA CARES!!!

    “And every single one of the plotters is a young MAN, almost always a man who has been abandoned by his FATHER.
    The MEN of Barbados have to fix this because it is ENTIRELY their fault.”
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    There you go again, blaming “MEN” for all the ills in Barbados!

    Why don’t you tell the Bajan women with equal admonition that they must stop breeding for the same bad men who were once boys?

    What do you expect in the yard when a wicked cock threads a submissive hen with a needle of violence? A pious mouse?

    Bajan-born boy children are conditioned to adhere, more so, to the instructions of Bajan women who are in direct control of the physical and psychological development of these boys’ lives starting in the home and reinforced in the schools from kindergarten (nursery) to primary to secondary.

    If the absence of Bajan fathers from the home is the socializing determinant in causing boys to become killers, how then do you explain the phenomenon of suicide bombers and jihadists among the young Muslims where the father is seen and the primary socializing agent in the home?

    Wasn’t Adam present in the socialization of Cain who killed his own brother over the love of Yahweh?

    Furthermore, how do you explain the ‘alleged’ rampantly high level of blatant lying and downright corruption that can be found among those honourable members?

    Wasn’t the Don from Pornville ‘reared’ in a household where there was a dad?

    Are you implying that those MPs who were involved in the pulling of guns in the OK Palmetto Square were raised in households without fathers?
