With the high crime levels going on for over 40 years now, it is clear that the Jamaica Constabulary Force is under severe stress. Tonight again there was heavy gunfire in Duhaney Park in Kingston, Jamaica. Police are now in the area and my On The Ground Reporters have reported that at least one person has been killed. His identity is unknown and it is not clear why he was killed.
The government needs to take more decisive actions to effectively eliminate the number of hostilities in the various communities and consequently reduce the number of murders. It is my opinion that if the police have to continue to function in this violent atmosphere with a high incidence of crime, then this will negatively impact how the Jamaica Constabulary Police Force deals with ordinary citizens.
Already many citizens have started to accuse JCF members of atrocities that they have not even committed. We can expect a further breakdown in the police/citizens relationships in the country. New strategies must be employed to deal with the crime. Can we learn from the Covid-19 measures?
More and more citizens are taking things into their own hands. Suspected criminals have been stoned, chopped and some eventually have died after citizens have delivered their own form of quick and swift justice.
Our leaders must find a way to send fear into the hearts of these criminals. Many of these criminals need to be removed from society permanently. Some of these criminals are not just criminals but domestic terrorists and they should be treated as such. If we cannot manage the crime then those responsible for managing the crime must step aside.
As of July 3, 2021, we have murdered 720 persons in this country. There could be others that we are not even aware of. It seems that we are heading for a record this year in 2021? we have moved from 63 murders in 1962 to 1323 in 2020 and it seems we might hit 1500 murders this year. (See Police Statistics)
We need to have a number of special sittings of parliament to deal with crime and the time to deal with that is now.
