The judicial system at its best, kill multiple persons with high powered assault rifles and you get to come out and do it all over again.

A police officer charged with the murder of a Wallerfield man has been granted bail by a High Court judge.
PC Anil Gooding was charged on October 4, 2021, with the murder of Yasin Abdul Richardson, also called "Ghost."
Richardson died in Arima on June 23, 2018. Around 4 am, he was killed in what police described as a shoot-out after the 22-year-old allegedly robbed a gas station.
Another man who was in a vehicle with Richardson was shot in the shoulder. Police found him hiding in the trunk of the car and he was later charged with shooting at police officers.
They claimed they chased the getaway car from D'Abadie to Tumpuna Road before they intercepted it and there was a shootout.
Gooding, 31, who had been remanded since he was charged, applied for bail in March. He is represented by attorney Ulric Skerritt.
In a ruling on Monday, Justice Lisa Ramsumair-Hinds granted him bail of $400,000 with one or two sureties or an alternative of a cash bond by one surety of $100,000.
One of Gooding’s sureties must appear with him every time he has to appear in court. He is also expected to stay at the address he gave in Arima and must surrender all travel documents to the Arima district court. If he intends to move, he has to give the court, the police and the Director of Public Prosecutions his new address.
Gooding also has to report to the Arima police station every Monday and Saturday and have no contact with any witness in the case. He is also prohibited from holding or applying for a firearm user's licence or carrying or using a gun.
In her ruling, Ramsumair-Hinds said while she agreed there was a risk Gooding could abscond or fail to surrender to custody, that risk was insubstantial.
She also said she considered the offence with which he was charged was “certainly serious and police excesses are a growing societal concern.” However, she held any risk could be managed with certain conditions attached to bail.
“Certainly, extra-judicial killings by police officers are a topic of great significance in the human rights discourse, one that has morphed in the recent past.
“A police shooting is neither presumptively justified nor extra-judicial. In the circumstances of this particular incident, it is clear that there is a triable issue between the State and the applicant…That is for the fact-finder(s).
“The issue for me is narrow – is it likely that the applicant will abscond and not face his trial?”
Ramsumair-Hinds also pointed out there was an intervening period between the alleged incident and his arrest, during which time, Gooding was initially detained for questioning and released.
“It is of note to me, because even after being set free, it is clear that no insurmountable risk of flight arose. Not only did he enjoy his liberty until being charged more than a year later, but he was permitted to return to active duty.”
Senior prosecutor Danielle Thompson represented the State at the bail hearing.

A director of a distribution company and a customs clerk who were charged on Tuesday with Conspiracy to Import Antibiotics and Controlled Drugs without a Licence and Money Laundering were granted $1.5 million bail with a surety by a Justice of the Peace.
JOSH RAGOONANAN, 31, of Ramasray Gardens, Phase 2, Debe, a director of a distribution company, was jointly charged on October 4th with SELWYN JOSEPH, 37, of Henry Street, Arouca, an apprentice customs clerk, with Conspiracy to Import Antibiotics Without a Licence, Conspiracy to Import Controlled Drugs Without a Licence and Money Laundering by Detective Gorking of the Financial Investigations Branch (FIB).
RAGOONANAN was additionally charged with Importing Antibiotics Without a Licence, Importing Controlled Drugs Without a Licence and Storing Antibiotics Without a Licence.
RAGOONANAN and JOSEPH were given $900,000 and $600,000 bail on October 4th to cover the charges, respectively. The charges were laid following the advice received from Assistant Director of Public Prosecutions, Nigel Pilgrim.
Both men are to appear before the Siparia Magistrates’ Court on November 18th, 2022.
They were arrested following a joint investigation and operation by agents of the Customs and Excise Division of the Ministry of Finance and FIB which resulted in the seizure of a large quantity of pharmaceutical drugs at residences in Ramasray Gardens, Debe.
According to police reports, on September 28th, 2022, agents of the Preventative Unit of the Customs and Excise Division (CED) received information that a quantity of pharmaceuticals was smuggled out of the Queen’s Wharf, Port-of-Spain.
The CED conducted enquiries and proceeded to a house in North-Central Trinidad where they executed a writ of assistance pursuant to section 205 of the Customs Act Chapter 78:01. A man at the house was subsequently arrested.
The following day, the CED agents and FIB detectives proceeded to a house in Debe and to a nearby abandoned premise where they allegedly found and seized a large quantity of pharmaceutical drugs which comprised controlled drugs, antibiotic and over the counter drugs.
During the exercise, FIB detectives also allegedly seized a large quantity of cheques from several pharmacies across the country, and cash which was reported to be the proceeds from the sale of pharmaceutical drugs and a bottle sealer.
The FIB was led by Senior Superintendent (Ag.) Wendell Lucas and included Inspector McKenzie, Cpl Eslam and others.
