Murders particularly
high in three divisions
Murders remain a nationwide concern, but data contained in the Compstat report revealed that the Port-of-Spain, Western and Tobago divisions were actively driving the murder toll.
Figures reported that as of May 13, there were 39 murders in the Port-of-Spain Division, compared to only 15 for the same period in 2023.
One of the more significant bursts of violence reported for the year thus far was observed in Harpe Place when five men were killed in a drive-by shooting in March.
The murders are believed to be part of ongoing warfare between Sixx and Seven gangs. No one was arrested or charged for the murders as of Wednesday evening.
Of the 39 murders in the Port-of-Spain Division, only three have been detected.
For years, the Port-of-Spain Division has had a relatively low individual murder toll compared to the Northern, North-Central and Central divisions.
During her Independence Day toast to the nation last year, Harewood-Christopher acknowledged that the North-Central Division which covers a significant stretch of the east-west Corridor was one of the divisions where an active increase in the murder toll was reported.
One senior officer said the return of the Port-of-Spain Division as a murder “hotbed” was worrying as it signalled unrest in the underworld.
“Usually when these kinds of murders increase in numbers around the capital, which is for want of a better term, the ‘headquarters’ of these gangs that means big changes are going on.
“It also means that there are a lot more incidents of violence to come before things can calm down again. We, the police, do our best, but ultimately we can’t be everywhere at once.”
The officer noted the brazen nature of some killings in the capital earlier this year, particularly the murder of Akeil Archer who was gunned down at the Queen’s Park Savannah in January, and the killing of Omar Hunte at the Breakfast Shed days later. Both murders occurred in broad daylight.
In the Western Division, there have been 23 murders for the year thus far, a marked increase from 14 reported for the same period in 2023.
On May 4, gunmen opened fire on a group of limers in Powder Magazine, Cocorite, killing four men and wounding eight others. These murders are also believed to be caused by ongoing gang warfare.
One source said the uptick in violence was believed to be a spillover from the feud in neighbouring Port-of-Spain Division.
In the Tobago Division, eight murders were reported as of May 13, compared to six for the same period last year.
In the most recent killing, Nikeisha Sandy was gunned down at Arnos Vale Road, Plymouth. Sandy is the third woman to be killed in Tobago in 2024 thus far, behind Deborah Gopaul, whose burnt remains were found off the Claude Noel Highway on March 26 and Shellon Walters-Joseph whose body was found over a precipice on May 4.
Of the remaining seven police divisions, the North Eastern Division showed the largest drop in murders, with 20 murders being reported as of May 13, compared to 42 murders for the same period last year.

About 11 grand. The judge ordered the state to pay me back the full cost of the JR but after my lawyer told me some nonsense about he charged me a subsidized cost so he keeping that... Sigh
Lawyers are the biggest scamps in Trinidad. First one I checked told me 30k up front and I'll get though
Be wary of lawyers in all matters, hope I never have to see a lawyer or court in life again

when you say you got no response, you never went to the ful dept and asked in person about your file#?
normally they would tell you with a smile that it’s approved and just “waiting on signature” which was the signal to go to your friendly gun dealer to have it expedited

can a cop charge you for coming out your car to dispute their allegations?

She is the only CoP in recent time that is experiencing successive years of reduction in murders. Why move her?
Is it that ppl want to hear Sheriff Gary but murders still increasing?
Or Reno 911 but the murders going down?

not that this wasn't known before
. Seepersad also renewed a call for errant police officers to pay court-awarded compensation, rather than the State.
“Until people are affected by their pockets, behavioural patterns would not be revisited and adjusted.”
The judge also reminded that videotaping events in a public place, particularly involving the police, was not a criminal offence.
