21st Century Policing T&T Style

[Special1]

Colleague of mines got held up on the Beetham last week when he experienced a blowout.
A suspect was held and police asked my colleague to come pickout the person from a lineup on Friday.

He went Friday and it was cancelled. Told him to come back on Saturday for 1 pm. He had to wait till 4 pm for it to start. It had one way mirror but the girlfriend (colleague described her as a big woman with 20 lbs of hair and only watching him) of the suspect was seated next to him.

He said the police tell him a representative of the suspect had to be present during the lineup. When my colleague heard that he tell the police he not able to pickout the suspect.

Sounds like your "colleague" forgot his balls home that day. Why go through all that if he fraid to identify the man?

See if the same man AND girlfriend ent rob him again next time he get a flat.

I would fraid a big woman with lots of hair as well

Couple weeks back I went one morning by the apartment complex that you see when you passing on Lady young road to drop of some stuff for a friend living there.

On leaving one tried to stop me to give her a lift but she left enough room for me to drive around her so I did. She pound up the top of my car as I passed her and shouted out I trying to stop you.

When I reached in town I called my friend to tell her about the woman and my friend said the woman come by her apartment and cuss up the place and saying that her man don't like black people and that she go mark my car etc.

[Bizzare]

A DAY after the attempted murder of a man at Ste Madeleine, a witness to the crime who helped police identify suspects was shot dead on Monday night.

Kevin Ellis, a "PH" driver, of Montgomery Street, was killed near his home.

Ellis, 26, was shot in his head, face and upper body and died at the scene.

The murder toll for the year to date is now 44.

Police said yesterday Ellis was a witness to an attack in which Sean Baptiste, also of Ste Madeleine, was beaten unconscious on Sunday.

Baptiste, 33, was at home when two men —one armed with a piece of lumber, the other with rocks—entered his house. The men beat Baptiste about his head and body, and left him for dead.

Baptiste was taken to the San Fernando General Hospital, and transferred to the Port of Spain General Hospital for treatment by a specialist neurologist.

He was listed yesterday in critical condition.

Ellis's neighbour, Shilana Charles, said yesterday Ellis died in the yard of her home.

Charles said shortly after 7 p.m., she was at home helping her three children with homework when she heard Ellis calling out to her at her window.

"He came and ask me for some juice. I told him I didn't have any and he said okay, and he dropped down the curtain. I sat down and continued what I was doing and within a minute I heard gunshots, about six or seven, ringing out. I thought I got shot too because it was so loud," said Charles.

Charles said she and her brother grabbed the children and ran to the back of the house. A short while later she heard screaming and crying and saw Ellis's sisters over his body.

The body was removed to the Forensic Science Centre, St James. for an autopsy yesterday.

Homicide Division officers are investigating.

^rumtalk bizzare. Afaik, its legit for a representative of the suspect to be there during I'd parade. U ask ur friend why he stopped on the beetham tho? Flat or no flat

[Bezman]

i would have asked the police if i could have worn a mask or something yes.. wasn't letting that one slide so.

[Lucian-2nr]

Thats how they operate.

Imagine women victims go through the same thing, hence the reason rapists get away.

[VexXx Dogg]

Hook out of everyhting you just post, all I seeing is the bumsee in that avatar.

[Bizzare]

Never knew that was so. I thought it was all private. If so the one way mirror doesn't make any sense.

[BrotherHood]

Lesson learnt: do not stop on beetham regardless of what.

[sliderz1]

me eh fraid no woman dan, horse tail hair or none

[Rooki3]

i was still picking d phoqer out!!!

[Bizzare]

i was still picking d phoqer out!!!

There are lots of things I would have done to other ppl who deserved such especially where I live, but then I remember I have a family. They mightn't be able to get to you, but ur family.......

[shogun]

Wait!!!...this is the practice??

There must be a better system, to protect the identity of the victim, while maintaining the rights of the persons, on the ID parade.

well look how your boy, turn Ray Charles now...i eh see nothing!!

^rumtalk bizzare. Afaik, its legit for a representative of the suspect to be there during I'd parade. U ask ur friend why he stopped on the beetham tho? Flat or no flat

but wouldn't that just defeat the purpose of the 1 way mirror- d suspect can't identify u but they girlfriend can

a few years ago i went to identify persons too at St. James station after a robbery at a drug store i was working at and not only did i have to stand in full view of all the ppl on the lineup but i had to give my address too i left out the house number though

[Bizzare]

In all honesty I woulda identify the suspect and kill the gf on her way home.

[shogun]

^Yeah. Riiiiiiiiiiight!

[bluesteel29]

wtf...n police wanna know y witnesses don't wanna come forward

[Kongorealm]

crime is boss in this country...how the fack you go tell me a representative of the suspects have to be present!? On all seriousness, it may look like a wrong move towards standing up against crime but to be honest, the man made the right move in an effort to protect himself and his family. Why put yourself in a position in which you can become a victime once again and the justice system dont give a flying fack about you!

[rollingstock]

Why this ched is about the Police?

Did the police make the law?

No! So stfu and tell yuh padna he is ah coward.

Fraid a fat beetch lmao.

[flower95]

^^ x2

[nervewrecker]

I want to know what take place with the police & space wet & wild patrons yesterday.

[RASC]

I've had a tyre begin to shred on the Beetham already...wasn't stopping for nothing.
I would've drove on the rim and all had it blown out.

Well said.

I actually did this already

Another reason to bomb the beetham

Imagine the nice multilevel carpark/shuttle system that could be set up there

Let's ask Uncle Hugo to let those raptor jets do a fly-by and let "something go wrong"

I think its something along the lines of protecting the rights of the suspect. Fine, I accept that but at the safety of the victim? That's crap. The victim should at least be afforded a hood or some disguise when at an I'd parade. But ur situation was frigged up jed. Dais craziness!!!!!

[rollingstock]

Bunch of pu-cees!

Lil injun like me and i does sleep in de Beetham............

Heck i bull de bess reds name Sparkles and swell she belly long time now and men send all kind of threats, write mih name pon bullet and ting, and i still in there every weekend

Let me guess you all are the type that if in traffic or driving slowly and you see a black man standing or walking at the side of the road you all wind up your glass and lock all the doors and start trembling and praying

gubment gun brings bravery
