DAILY CRIME REPORTS THREAD ...

Brother of the owner of phats international shot during a robbery at his business place in South. Unconfirmed if he died

that was 'point blank' - lucky if he survives

Confirmed that he died, fighting for a gold chain. Sometimes ppl want your possessions more than you, if you faced with a gun getting killed over it really worth it?

[pugboy]

why wear something all the bandits covet in the first place ?
unless you of that ilk of course

[timelapse]

You have to be kind of naive to be rocking gold in public in these times.Personal safety first.

[hover11]

Just as how ppl who like to flaunt it will always ppl thst like what you have more than you and will do anything to acquire it

Dais our way of celebrating emancipation

The PM said don't focus on black people

Well if Indian Arrival Day wasn't about Indians, Emancipation isn't about black people (we know he meant afros).
PNM logic , and we wonder why this place is how it is.
Further,
Minister of works business isn't works
Minister of National Security business isn't crime.
Minister of Finance business isn't improving the country's financial stability.

Kalyuga at is best yes, where a nation of sheep are ruled by wolves.

You forgot the PM said he's a failure

why wear something all the bandits covet in the first place ?
unless you of that ilk of course

I find wearing jewelery or even watches dont even make sense for the past several years. I dont even wear my wedding ring.

People will just be driving by and see the glint of gold on your neck or hand and decide its a easy robbery and you end up getting a buss head or dead

Wearing flashy jewelry, using your cellphone in areas like town driving a car like a Benz or Range Rover makes you a target.Yes, while it may be your things and you worked hard for such it's unfair but that's just how it is , it comes with it. You have to be smart and ask yourself if I willing to die over material things...

i never walk the streets talking on a phone, that is just inviting someone to grab your phone.
better to stop and sit or stand somewhere to take the call and be aware of your surroundings

also advised to have a spare phone/ipad to be able to track your phone if stolen or vice versa

The one time I almost end up a phone theft victim was when I was parked by SMR/PBR lights in Curepe a morning with my glass down. Youth man walk up to my window and tried to grab the phone out of my hand as I was on a call with my wife. This was pre-phone use while driving being illegal.
Phone fell on the floor and the youthman just walked back to the corner spot he came from and leaned against the wall normal normal.

Never made a call with glass down ever again.

doh mind barbados made d bust & have it there : look at stacks ....

Massive Inter Island Drug Bust- $72 Million Worth of Marijuana Seized

One Colombian was arrested and marijuana with a street value of $72,063,420 was seized in Barbados following months of surveillance, intelligence gathering and collaboration with regional law enforcement agencies.

In June 2020, officers of the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service began investigations into a person of interest who was suspected of controlling a drug ring based in Central Trinidad with regional and international links.

The suspect and another man then boarded a flight to Barbados in late June 2022, Barbados law enforcement was notified, and their assistance was requested.

The TTPS continued gathering intelligence and maintained relations with Barbados law enforcement, and as a result discovered that on Friday 29 July 2022, a shipment of drugs landed in Barbados.

This intelligence was further developed and on August 2nd Barbados law enforcement breached the "stash house” in Barbados where they found and seized 481kilogrammes of marijuana with a street value of TT $72,063,420.

One Colombian national was also arrested at the house.

Investigations are continuing.

Why marijuana still illegal in Barbados? Man, the State should be selling that legally with 100% tax on it and Treasury making money easy.

[pugboy]

most things are twice price over there eh

Could it be the same reason it not legal here as yet. The top businessmen not ready to capitalize the market as yet but they putting things in place

Yes they valuing a kilo at 150,000 for some reason.

Not sure if that suppose to be rupees or guyanese or what.

[Chimera]

Even at the highest price of 250 usd per ounce for high quality weed in Barbados

Thats coming out to 9000 usd a kilo.

Police always use street value for drugs because it looks good in the papers.

They take dealer weight which is much cheaper/kg and the police calculation is how that can sell out of that kg at the max street value per gram.

e.g.
-say 1 kg 95% cocaine dealer bulk price from Colombia is USD$30k.
-2nd middle dealer cuts that into 2kg 47.5%
-Street dealer cuts again into 23.75% at 4kg.†
-Let's estimate that street corner pusher 1 gram ~23% {Brideport example} cocaine costs ~$50.
-So now that initial 1kg 95% powder seized has become ~USD$200,000 street value.

The street values are much larger if crack cocaine is calculated from the initial 1kg since that's way more potent than snuff and is cut a lot more and then sold as rocks in 1/10th grams purity to the end user.

I don't know how marijuana is cut or laced at each step down dealer for the final street value customer per gram sold, but I'm sure the calculations are similar.

† The median purity of the 343 samples containing cocaine was 23% and the average purity was 29%

That’s not even the street value TTPS & Bajan popo quote. Super inflated value is what they did to make it seem like a big bust.

[mero]

I swear it I read coke.

Its possible if its high grade.

Grade AA+ imported is about 50k + a key.

401 keys @50k is 20 million cost price.

Assuming someone can make 3x + on their wholesale in Barbados is realistic. So 72 mil is a good street value tbh.

But yea police does overstate the fork out of busts. So I feel daz still colo brick weed cuz you just don't get 401kilos of high grade.

cost price in BIM is the same as TT.
