pios was ranting bout parking on the shoulder and drunk driving..

the fact that these people did not park at the side of the road does not invalidate his statements,,,it just made them inapplicable.

jinkin an driving is bad as well as non emergency use of the shoulder.

I didn't realize that you could be a truck driver at 70, isn't it a bit too old to be maneuvering such a large and powerful piece of machinery?

I do agree with the disgust that a breathalyzer wasn't used on the scene after legislation was passed more than 2yrs ago.

Guilty of 'cussing'

Keino Swamber South Bureau

THE 70-year-old driver who was involved in Saturday's accident at Mosquito Creek, La Romaine, which claimed the lives of five people, was placed on a bond in the San Fernando Traffic Court yesterday, after he pleaded guilty to using obscene language at the crash site.

Balton Barnwell's attorney, Ramesh Deena, told Magistrate Taramatie Ramdass that Barnwell had "lost it" as a result of being taunted by relatives of the dead and injured.

The court heard that PC Martin Ballantyne was on duty along the South Trunk Road in La Romaine, near the Cremation Site at Mosquito Creek, when he heard Barnwell say in a loud tone of voice: "Anybody (expletive) hit me, ah go (expletive) deal with them."

Barnwell, of John Jules Trace, Delhi Road, Fyzabad, was approached and cautioned by Ballantyne. But he said to the police officer: "(expletive) you boy."

He was arrested and taken to the San Fernando Police Station where he was charged.

Yesterday, Deena said Barnwell had no previous convictions and no pending matters and that he was remorseful. Deena said he was assured by Barnwell that there would be no recurrence of such an incident.

Barnwell is employed with the Claxton Bay-based Junior Sammy Contractors Ltd. He was bonded in the sum of $5,000 to keep the peace and be of good behaviour for one year or, in default, return to court for sentencing.

Investigators were up to yesterday awaiting instructions from the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions on any possible charges arising out of the accident. Barnwell was released from custody after his court appearance.

So i take it that lives of 4 people KILLED and numerous other injured DUE to YOUR direct Drunken driving is worth $ 5,000.00 tt????

ABSOLUTELY FACIKNG SAD!

mitsu_chick941 · Postby **mitsu_chick941** » August 18th, 2009, 10:00 am

I think he should be charged with manslaughter!

That is absolutely ridiculous,the man shows no remorse and his lawyer has the gall to say he promises it wont happen again! There is a four year old child in the hospital who apparently isnt even responding to his mother's voice and thats all is going to come off this?

I am not sure how much worse our justice system can get!

Postby **wagon r** » August 18th, 2009, 10:14 am

...but he was charged for cussin.....which is what he was doing when police arrested him.

...they can't lay any charges until the DPP says so.....so don't fire yuh hate at the man...fire it at those to make the decision.....the man done have to live with the situation.

...and most of you'll will have to fire it at yourself, because you did your crap and get away with it....i included.
