03:20And, of course, our global viewers.
03:22It's Friday.
03:23It's the end of the week.
03:24I'm sure a lot of you were waiting for this day, of course, to unwind and so on.
03:28And I know we are also nearing the Bowerday celebrations carded into today, Saturday and Sunday as well.
03:39And of course today with us, no stranger, Corporal Derek Chabody of the St. James Police Youth Club.
03:46Welcome sir, how are you?
03:47Blessings to you and yours and to you.
03:49All is well, April 20th is no more and over 500,000 people came out in their numbers and voted.
03:58We want to salute them.
04:00We want to appreciate the fact that our international visitors give us an A.
04:05They said that by viewing, we did very well and they want us, you know, comment on that.
04:10And I want to personally commend, you know, all those who came out and, you know, exercised their franchise.
04:16It is excellent.
04:17And as a police officer, those who were performing duty, we walked from 2.30 a.m.
04:23We had to report to the station.
04:26After reporting to the station, we had briefing at 4.45 a.m.
04:30And at 5 a.m., everybody was paraded and dispatched at their respective schools, et cetera, et cetera.
04:37And we were reminded the importance of the ballot box.
04:40We were reminded the importance of congregating and offenses that, you know, pertains to election.
04:44But we were thankful that the people made our work very easy.
04:48You know, I want to salute Central Division.
04:50I was posted in Central.
04:52I had breakfast.
04:54I had coffee and so on.
04:56I also had lunch and dinner.
04:58The officers were well treated.
04:59It's not a case where they were posted.
05:01You know, Mr. Meister visited us.
05:03We had a lot of visits.
05:04We were reminded about being alert.
05:066 a.m. is not easy, you know.
05:08And then after 6 p.m., you have to supervise the count.
05:13After supervising the count, as a senior person, you have to make sure that the ballot box is conveyed properly.
05:20It's election boundaries.
05:21Yes.
05:21And then we tell the inspector ASV, say, you're relieved.
05:25So it was a long, so I just want to serve all my colleagues who came out in their numbers and really ensure that we had an excellent election.
05:35And to all the law-in-law-in-law-in-law citizens, we must commend them.
05:38You know, when you look at elections all over the world, it's something else.
05:41But Trinidad and Tobago need to take a bow.
05:45You know, we want to commend them for exercising their franchise.
05:48And democracy is alive and well.
05:51And we are indeed grateful that you made all law enforcement officers work very easy on the 28th.
05:57All right.
05:58Well, as we speak about, you know, democracy and freeness and fairness, we want to wish all our colleagues across the world and here in Trinidad and Tobago,
06:07Happy World Press Freedom Day.
06:10Definitely, you know, the media has a very important role and function here in Trinidad and Tobago and across, of course, across the world as being the watchdogs to ensure that those in authority, those in power are held accountable if and when things go wrong.
06:29Yes, I can start to commend and salute the press, what the press has done in terms of educating, keeping us informed, asking hard questions.
06:40You know, doing special investigations and so on.
06:45You know, we have to commend them.
06:46The press keeps everything alive, keeps things on the button.
06:50And when you, again, when you look at international news and you see where the press is, sometimes bomb taking place and these men are there reporting, storm, hurricane, and they're right there in the center.
07:01Listen to me.
07:02It is not something that you have to sign up for, something that you, you know, is part of you, something that you like, something that is all part of the system.
07:10So I just want to piggyback on your utterance and I want to also commend our press, the media house in Trinidad, the regional and also international, who keep us informed and, by example, keep us in touch in terms of what's going on at an international level.
07:26We're going to salute them.
07:27Yes, certainly.
07:29And, of course, you know, as I said, you know, happy will freedom, will press freedom to all my colleagues here in Trinidad and Tobago.
07:36And as we talk about, you know, safety, security, we're dealing with, you know, a very large festival or celebration this weekend in the Point Forte area, the Point Forte, Borrow Day, 45th anniversary celebrations, a number of things carded over the next couple of days.
07:57And I know you would probably want to just, you know, convey a message to those who are heading down there tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday.
08:05Yeah, well, certainly for those who are going on to Point Forte, to make a point, make a positive point.
08:12You know, police are out there and they're ready for you.
08:15Your vehicles must be in order.
08:17You know, make sure and have your documentation.
08:19You know, we want to tell all those who are into illegal activities, if you feel that you can go and disrupt, you know, a festival, think twice, think a third time.
08:30If you're not wanted, please stay away where you don't belong.
08:35It is not helpful.
08:37And we want to alert people who are also attending and are driving on the black carpet.
08:41I've heard about some unfortunate incidents in the past about people not being familiar with the road, it's not well-led.
08:46You know, we lost a DJ on 96.1 a year ago.
08:52Yes, I recall.
08:52We're very unfortunate, right, and we want to tell people, take their time on the black carpet, you follow?
08:58Also, if you see something, say something.
09:00You're seeing people moving through, you're seeing the elements, alert the police.
09:04Defense force personnel will be out in their numbers.
09:07And they're there to make sure that the Point Forte in Borough is a safe one.
09:11And therefore, you too must act as a good police officer and work in concert with those who want to make sure that you are a safe and enjoyable point.
09:23I went a few times, well, and I've enjoyed really nice people.
09:26You know, they're very accommodating.
09:27Some people are like that.
09:28Oh, God, listen to me.
09:30They give you the room, the bedroom, they tell you, go ahead.
09:33Yeah, that's how we are.
09:34We are some people.
09:35Oh, yes.
09:36Yeah, some people.
09:36Oh, excuse me.
09:37I apologize.
09:38Sorry.
09:38Yeah, yeah.
09:39Honestly, when you go down south, Fernando, all the way down to the deep south, it's really a different kind of feeling.
09:46The people, when they embrace you, good food, good times, good laughter, and so on.
09:51And of course, I know the police will also be out in full force there to ensure that persons have a really good time.
09:57Yes, and for those who are playing a music truck and vehicle, make sure that licensing has, you know, put you in order.
10:03So that if you are challenged by the law enforcement, you will reproduce.
10:07It's all in a bid to make sure that we are safe and raw abiding.
10:12My wife's family lives in Point.
10:14So when I go down there, I have the luxury of enjoying.
10:17So I just want to salute all Point people who open their doors and their hospitality is absolutely second thing.
10:23And we salute you and we thank you very much for making this China Vigo a beautiful place.
10:28All right.
10:28Okay, let's take a look now at our headlines.
10:31Let's take a look now at our headlines.
10:31¶¶
11:01So those are some of the headlines within the last 24 hours.
11:05And just looking back there, we saw police make significant dent in extortion incident.
11:11Really a situation where a police officer who was charged and brought before a magic master,
11:19Indira Chanebas, at the Coover Masters Court on May 1st, 2025, sorry, yesterday,
11:26he was charged with two counts of demanding money by menaces, kidnapping, robbery, and one count of larceny.
11:33He was granted bail with charity in the sum of $650,000.
11:38So certainly this is a message that if you think that you can be somebody in law enforcement
11:46that want to carry about in a criminal way,
11:53you will be found out and you will be dealt with.
11:56And I think the victim would have made the initial report.
11:59Reading on in the press release, it was actually two separate incidents.
12:05And it is good to see that, you know, it is difficult at times when you have to go and arrest your own colleague.
12:12And we know we have the Professional Standards Bureau that usually is in charge of investigating these errant officers.
12:17And they are brought before the courts to face some pretty serious charges.
12:22Well, we must commend Assistant Commissioner Smith and the Anti-Extortion Unit.
12:27They are doing good work.
12:28You know, sometimes you form a unit and you don't hear about them.
12:31And we know Mr. Smith is a man, I mean, they say he's police.
12:34He knows his police work, he knows, and he's out there and he makes sure that.
12:39And while it's unfortunate, it is a good thing that we send public, message to the public,
12:44that extortion doesn't confine to members of the public only.
12:48Even our own colleagues, bad actors, would be made to account and have the day in court.
12:54But it is a sad day, my son.
13:00Unfortunately, as an officer, I'm telling you, you know, but when the public, you have to build trust and build confidence.
13:07And it takes this, then fine, because people are looking on.
13:11And we want to commend those who would have bring evidence and even the gentleman, you know,
13:16who would have said, nah, I'm not taking this.
13:18You know, and went further, because some people remain quiet.
13:21Some people, they feel violated, some people are intimidated, and they go further.
13:25And this is an excellent case that we can make a statement to, that we were saying,
13:30even officers, errant officers, will be made to account.
13:34Extortion is extortion across the board, as not just for members of the public.
13:40Yes, and hats off to the Anti-Extortion Unit under ACP Smith, of course,
13:46resulting in the arrest of this police constable based in Coover, you know.
13:52So, we've been talking about Point Forte, Point Forte Borrow Day celebrations,
13:58and in the midst of this really sad story, this morning unfolding in the Point Forte area,
14:04a Coast Guard officer, shot and killed in a robbery, 36-year-old D.C. and John of La Resource Road in Arima,
14:15shot and killed during a robbery, while seated in his motor vehicle along Cassier Street in Point Forte,
14:20around 1.15 this morning.
14:23He was with a group of friends, reportedly, when three armed men came up to the car
14:28and demanded money and other valuables, and shortly thereafter, there was a couple of gunshots heard.
14:39Mr. John was rushed to the nearest Point Forte hospital, where I believe he succumbed to his injuries.
14:46Yes, I want to convey my condolences to my, he's a colleague too, I mean, with a police, army, Coast Guard,
14:53he's part of law enforcement, that's right, so I want to convey my condolences.
14:57I don't know the facts in terms of whether he's a father of two, whatever,
15:01but certainly would have left some family behind, and it's unfortunate.
15:04You know, the elemental surprise is something else.
15:06All how, you know, to know how to push in your car, how to,
15:09you don't know when these people will attack you, they'll monitor you, you know,
15:13it's very, very unfortunate, and then I understand, based on the report,
15:17that his firearm was also relieved.
15:19Yes, yes, correct.
15:20So that also speaks that, you know, these fellas, they know the particular individual,
15:25you know, and times have changed, and therefore, even as we attempt to socialise, engage, and interact,
15:33we need to be very selective in where we go and the places we go, you know,
15:37how the vehicle is positioned, where your back is, you kind of take things for granted again.
15:42And sometimes, you know, how much times you can be alert?
15:45You know, you alert all the time, sometimes, you know, you drop your guard for five minutes,
15:49and that's why it's good to, when you have colleagues within your frame,
15:54to talk to them and say, hey, let me in here, and et cetera, et cetera,
15:58and make sure that wherever we position ourselves is a safe one.
16:02Very unfortunate, and I trust that justice is so early that we find the culprits
16:08and make these many examples very unfortunate.
16:10It doesn't get happened to anybody.
16:13Indeed.
16:14All right, we have a short clip involving, it says,
16:17alleged one driver was trying to avoid another vehicle,
16:19and this occurred, I'm not sure of the area.
16:25It's a gas station.
16:27It's pretty, it's at least three, two badly damaged vehicles there,
16:33and then you have at least four, two there, really,
16:38and then somebody ended up hitting the gas station, the pump there.
16:46And the pump hit the next vehicle.
16:47Yes, and fell onto that vehicle.
16:52Fortunately, there was nothing in terms of explosion,
16:56as one of our crew members is telling me,
17:00you know, they had to obviously put foam and so on,
17:02just in case of anything, you know, flammable in that area there,
17:06which is pretty volatile,
17:09to ensure that, you know, there is no kind of fire and so on.
17:14And, of course, we see the authorities there
17:16also arriving very quickly after the incident.
17:20Yeah, again, we had to remember the fire service
17:22is considered trying to become brevis, you know,
17:27and the police is called the finest.
17:29Yes, and we have to come in the fire service for, you know,
17:32for doing due diligence, making sure that the area
17:36and whatever gas is contained, you know,
17:40we have to come in them because it could have been worse.
17:42Yeah, it's it then.
17:43I saw TN Tech as well, so I'll be seeing there too.
17:45Yeah, to take all the precautions necessary,
17:48and I'm just wondering how that accident happened,
17:50and if anybody happens to know the exact location of this gas station,
17:55you know, it really, it looks really bizarre
17:57how this accident may have occurred
17:59because usually when you're going into a gas station,
18:01you slow down, you're driving in a line with other cars,
18:04waiting to get your gas filled up.
18:07But somebody didn't follow the order.
18:10Yeah, have to be.
18:11Something definitely, and again,
18:12we're ready to get the benefit of seeing the video.
18:15Yes.
18:15The show things unfold.
18:16And we certainly hope that nobody was badly injured in that accident.
18:19Thank God, thank God.
18:20Yes, indeed.
18:21All right, we're going to take a short break,
18:22and we'll be back with your calls.

21:01Da-da-da-da-da.
21:02It's the one and only D.R.E.
21:19Welcome back to Beyond the Tape.
21:21I'm your host, Mark Bassan,
21:22joined today by Corporal Derek Chabody
21:24of the St. James Police Youth Club.
21:26And, you know, we just wanted to, again,
21:30show the images of two young women
21:34who are still missing.
21:35The first, according to the Children's Authority,
21:39Emily Williams, 17, last seen in the Maloney area.
21:44And, of course, anyone with information
21:46regarding the whereabouts of Emily
21:48should contact the authority at 996
21:51or even the nearest police station
21:55if you happen to spot Emily.
21:58The second is 15-year-old Aliyah Ali,
22:02last seen in the Mova area.
22:05Of course, anyone with information
22:06should contact the authority at 996
22:09or the police at 999
22:11or any nearest police station
22:13if you happen to spot her
22:15in any of these areas
22:17across Trinidad and Tobago.
22:18Yes, certainly it is for their own good.
22:22Sometimes, I mean, it says last week,
22:23again, we were talking about
22:24one of the young people who,
22:27a young girl, but he was found.
22:29She left home.
22:29Yes.
22:3014 years of age.
22:31Yes.
22:3215, I think.
22:3214 or 15.
22:33And you don't know how these things
22:34could end up.
22:35And we are asking people, you know,
22:36the time for that is not my child.
22:39And these are done.
22:41We have to be our brother's keeper.
22:43And sometimes you have to save children
22:44from themselves
22:45because they make poor choices.
22:46Sometimes there are a lot of factors
22:47that would have contributed
22:48for them leaving.
22:50And we don't want judging anybody.
22:51You know, they are crying out for help.
22:53And as adults,
22:54if you see a child
22:55not in any best of environment,
22:57it's good to call
22:57children's authority,
22:59community policing,
23:00you know,
23:00the officer that you may know
23:02and may have a relationship with
23:04so that that child can be rescued
23:06from that toxic environment.
23:09And children's authority
23:10has been doing excellent work.
23:12You know, it is so much.
23:13It is a mammoth project.
23:14And we work in concert
23:16with the children's authority
23:16from time to time
23:17providing housing.
23:19Sometimes they refer them
23:20to the U-Club.
23:20So I know all the good work
23:22that the children's authority does.
23:23So we are appealing to members
23:24of the public
23:25that those two faces,
23:27those are your children too.
23:29You follow?
23:30Those are the nation's children.
23:32And we need to know that.
23:33Officer, yes,
23:34we see them A, B, and C
23:36and they can start.
23:36Even their camera.
23:38Cameras are very helpful
23:39in terms of tracking their movement
23:41and seeing where they will last.
23:42So we really appeal to the public
23:43to render some assistance
23:45in ensuring that the children
23:47return safely back to their homes.
23:51Indeed.
23:52All right, we have our first call
23:53on the line.
23:54Caller, good evening.
23:55Good evening, officer.
23:56Good evening.
23:58Good evening, ma'am.
23:58Good morning.
23:59How are you all?
24:00Are we good?
24:01Yes.
24:02Officer, concerning the point 14,
24:04I'm sorry to hear what happened
24:06because I heard about it.
24:07And I know what people say sometimes
24:09is see you in the morning.
24:11People like to come from wherever
24:12they come from and cause confusion.
24:14I hope that everything will be okay.
24:16That's the first point.
24:17The second point is the concern
24:19in the election that has taken place.
24:21I hope that they stop kicks in
24:24and parliament and be very serious
24:25because of what is taking place
24:27in this country.
24:28And if they have enough seats
24:30that they can be treated for whatever
24:32that they could change certain laws
24:33that need to be changed
24:35and they look at constitutional reform
24:37so that something will be done
24:39in this country
24:40because it's sad every minute
24:41and every minute
24:42and all sorts of things.
24:44And my third point is
24:46we always get good grades
24:52for election because in Trinidad
24:53they don't really,
24:54you know,
24:55don't do set up.
24:56I remember we were in a country
24:58and the election was the case
25:00that I want to call the country
25:01and they told us certain callers
25:03not to go out to it
25:04because it's the only time
25:08they will realize
25:09you don't belong to that country
25:10is when you speak
25:11and that might be a bit too late.
25:12So we got an A
25:14and we know that people say
25:16that it has a lot of mouth
25:17and sometimes they don't really do anything.
25:19So we want to be safe
25:21for point 14
25:23because sometimes I have said before
25:25people are always coming
25:26to do wrong things.
25:27So all the best
25:28and have a blessed weekend
25:29all of you
25:30and tell them please
25:31stop kicks in parliament
25:32and get very serious
25:33because we need serious decisions
25:36that we need.
25:38Thanks a lot.
25:38Caller?
25:39Yes.
25:40Well,
25:40point 14
25:41the amount of alcohol consumption
25:43and the type of drugs
25:45that people are using
25:46and it's like a case
25:47where you're a polyaddict now
25:49so it's not a case of marijuana only
25:51or alcohol only
25:52they're mixing their drugs
25:53it's more potent
25:54you know
25:55so therefore
25:56the police officers
25:58and those who
25:59are moving around
26:00would understand
26:01that
26:02there's very little
26:03you can do
26:03in terms of communicating
26:04with somebody
26:05who's under the influence
26:06you have to take them
26:07somewhere to talk
26:08you follow?
26:09So
26:09we appeal to people
26:11to let good science prevail
26:13you know
26:14you're going behind a wheel
26:15you know the person
26:16is under the influence
26:17of alcohol
26:18seize the key
26:19command tell a person
26:21say not today
26:21you would not be driving off
26:23or your vehicle today
26:24you know
26:24you take charge
26:25you follow?
26:26So
26:26for all right thinking
26:28and right-binding persons
26:29take charge of those
26:30who you know
26:31unfortunately
26:32will not be making
26:33good and
26:34informed decisions

26:37the April 28
26:38it is
26:39it's behind us now
26:40we see what
26:41this government will do
26:42how to inform
26:43the different
26:43and
26:44the public
26:45the public
26:45will have to
26:46impress upon them
26:47you know
26:48what is required
26:48the police service
26:49is there to work
26:50in concert
26:51and to enforce
26:52you know
26:53the policies
26:53and that kind of stuff
26:54and
26:55we continue
26:56to do our good work
26:57we continue to
26:57make sure and understand
26:59that we

28:07you gentlemen do
28:08you know
28:10sincere
28:11honest
28:12integrity
28:13and the aim
28:15of all this work
28:16that we do it
28:17as citizens
28:18so that each
28:19and every citizen
28:20could enjoy
28:22their lives
28:23you know

28:27the boundary
28:27you might want

28:30but
28:30if the way
28:31you enjoy
28:32yourself
28:33infringing
28:34on someone
28:34else
28:35enjoying themselves
28:36that
28:36is the boundary
28:38and I believe
28:39now I have no experience
28:40as an officer
28:41don't get me wrong
28:42I just comment
28:42from the mind
28:43of a citizen
28:44so I just want
28:45to give that
28:46that
28:46that
28:47that
28:48comment
28:48that you know
28:50you guys
28:50do an honest
28:51genuine work
28:52so keep up
28:53the good work
28:54and all the best
28:55with the aim
28:56of Trinidad
28:57being happy
28:58thanks for the time
29:00all the best gentlemen
29:01blessings to you
29:02and he made
29:04an excellent point
29:05wherever you located
29:06you must have
29:07somebody responsible
29:08saying
29:09you aren't enough
29:10yes
29:10you had enough
29:12I don't think
29:12you should have
29:12a next one
29:13we had a program
29:14called Project Excel
29:15many years ago
29:16where even bartenders
29:17were acting responsible
29:19and saying
29:19I would not be
29:21serving you anymore
29:21so even the bartenders
29:23also feel
29:24that they have
29:24a responsibility
29:25the citizen
29:26I don't think
29:26you have your limit
29:27everybody needs
29:29to understand
29:29that they play
29:30a fundamental role
29:31in terms of
29:32ensuring people's safety
29:34that person
29:35will go in a car
29:35and will not only
29:37kill himself
29:37but he will kill
29:38an innocent driver
29:39as well
29:39three children
29:40as a result of that
29:41so there's a domino effect
29:42in terms of his
29:43reckless behavior
29:44and therefore we need
29:46to make sure
29:46that at least
29:48there are responsible
29:49people
29:50so at the end
29:51of the day
29:51I spoke to him
29:52I took away
29:53the keys from him
29:53we make sure
29:55and drop him
29:55back wherever
29:56and he's resting
29:57that is the attitude
29:58we want to applaud
29:59and we feel
30:00that is the right direction
30:01our society must go
30:02yes indeed

33:03where youth is concerned
33:04because he has
33:05so much of value
33:06you know
33:07and a lot of potential

33:41in my books
33:42he would be now
33:43a senior soup man
33:45I mean
33:46for the work
33:46that you have really done
33:48for the youth
33:49of this country
33:49on that scale
33:51in the eyes of the public
33:53you probably not
33:53looked upon as a corporal
33:55you know
33:55just
33:56the
33:57the
33:57the Herculean tasks
33:58that you take on
33:59every single day
34:01and what you do
34:03is an inspiration
34:04to a lot of young people
34:05out there
34:06and also to
34:06persons like yourself
34:07like Piers
34:08who would like to
34:09to interact with
34:10these young persons
34:11and make a difference
34:12and it's great
34:14to see that
34:15I could call in
34:16and lift the heart
34:18off to you
34:18and to salute you
34:19for the great work
34:20that you continue to do
34:21yes
34:23and thank you very much
34:24we go way back
34:25of course
34:26and thank you
34:27for the
34:27the promotion
34:29two weeks ago
34:30to Sartre
34:30and it comes to the package
34:31no but I
34:33I think that
34:34God has called it
34:35to be of service
34:35it started many years ago
34:38when my parents died
34:39you know
34:40when I saw a young man
34:41in the cell
34:41I spoke to him
34:42and being in the cell
34:43my heart moved
34:44and I realized
34:45he was ignorant
34:46naive
34:47a lot of different things
34:48he was doing
34:49he was set up
34:49you know
34:50and I spoke to
34:51the corporal
34:52at West End Station
34:53at that time
34:53many ones
34:54and he said
34:54well why don't go in schools
34:55and talk to them
34:56and that is where
34:58my passion was
34:58going talking
34:59lecturing
35:00and then I met some
35:01you know
35:02the youth club
35:03the youth club culture
35:05the environment
35:05I was introduced
35:06to Sergeant Reed
35:07and Prince
35:09and Corporal Hutchins
35:10you know
35:10some good people
35:11Trinidad
35:12and when I
35:14saw what they were doing
35:15in terms of
35:16proactive approach
35:16I think that
35:17you know
35:18it is good to
35:19it is easy to charge somebody
35:20it is easy to put them
35:21before the court
35:22but to change a mind
35:23to transform a mind
35:24to take a mind
35:26from 8 to 180 degrees
35:28and say
35:29officer I am grateful
35:30for the way you speak to me
35:31I am grateful
35:32that you met me
35:33and I say that everyday
35:34sometimes I don't even
35:35recognize them
35:36and they say officer
35:37remember when you came
35:37in my school
35:38so not to God
35:39be the glory
35:40I thank God
35:40for being of service
35:42because there are people
35:43who have been good to me
35:43in my youth
35:45and who continue
35:46to be good to me
35:46and I think all police officers
35:48should feel honored
35:49knowing that they have
35:51young people under the charge
35:53that they will
35:54be able to transform
35:55and whether it come
35:56with a rank or not
35:57the greatest thing
35:58is that it is a blessing
35:59and God will continue
36:00to bless you
36:01and your children
36:01will be blessed
36:02and your children
36:03will be blessed
36:03and that is important
36:05all right
36:06all right
36:07voice of the people
36:08in northeastern Satman

38:06we must
38:07these criminals
38:08and them
38:08they have to
38:09take them out
38:10boy
38:10you have to
38:10take them out
38:11yeah
38:12you have to
38:12take them out
38:13they own this way
38:15I see
38:16we could start
38:17to form something
38:18again
38:18show some form
38:19show some form
38:20like
38:20we they like
38:21if we are there
38:22the government
38:22they like if they are there
38:23because they may
38:24care nothing
38:24about the government
38:25they're moving in
38:26so maybe if they're
38:28stiffing the penalty
38:29and do things more
38:30more vibrant
38:31things might change
38:33but all for now
38:34things are changing
38:35at all
38:36thank you so much
38:37for your time
38:37I appreciate you
38:38yes my brother
38:39voice of the people
38:44of course
38:45and you know
38:46he's saying
38:46that we need to
38:47deal with these
38:48criminals
38:48yeah
38:49there's a saying
38:50after God is police
38:51you know why
38:52oh God
38:53oh God police
38:54so right after
38:55people call on God
38:56there's call for police
38:57the point is
38:58is that yes
38:59that you need to
39:00make these people
39:01under my example
39:01after officer has
39:03arrested
39:04put you before the court
39:05you need to expedite
39:07they need to have
39:07the day in court
39:08and they need to
39:09understand that
39:10these are the consequences
39:11if I am doing
39:11something wrong
39:12and there's no
39:13consequences
39:14now you know
39:14it's all unlawful
39:15but there's no
39:16consequences for my
39:18action
39:18they're not going
39:18to do it
39:19so all the
39:20judiciary system
39:20have to expedite
39:22these cases
39:23and let them know
39:24these are the
39:24consequences
39:25so that young
39:26people looking on
39:27will say
39:27hey not me
39:28I'm not going
39:29to make no 30 years
39:30I'm not going
39:31to struggle
39:31for no 15
39:3220
39:32you follow
39:33consequences
39:34and I think
39:35the gentleman
39:36is on the board
39:37in terms of
39:38the judicial
39:38history
39:38revisiting
39:39and trying to
39:40expedite some
39:40of those cases
39:41because the
39:42jails are filled
39:42you know
39:43police are doing
39:44good work
39:44it's filled
39:45to capacity
39:46the other half
39:47now is what's
39:48going on with
39:48the court system
39:49yeah and I
39:51would hope that
39:51you know when
39:52young people see
39:54those people in
39:55jail
39:55living in jail
39:57like if they are
39:58kings and think
39:59that is where
40:00they want to be
40:01thank you
40:01I would think
40:02that you would
40:03expect yourself
40:04to elevate
40:05yourself much
40:05higher than
40:06that
40:06and to live
40:07an honest life
40:08a straight
40:09forward life
40:09where you can
40:10earn honest
40:12living of course
40:12and take care
40:13of your family
40:14and take care
40:15of your needs
40:15sometimes things
40:16will take a little
40:17longer depending
40:18on the job
40:19that you get
40:19but you know
40:21some youths want
40:22things fast

40:34end result is
40:34that you might

44:12and I know
44:14that we
44:14continue to be
44:15of service
44:15the public
44:16determines
44:17the quality
44:18of service
44:18that the
44:19political
44:19stroke our
44:20ego
44:20and say

44:22public

44:24the police
44:24officers
44:25they're going
44:25beyond the
44:25call of duty
44:26the first
44:26respondents
44:27you know
44:28they're taking
44:29care of
44:29our youth
44:30they're doing
44:30excellent work
44:31at a national
44:32level
44:32so we continue
44:33to be of service
44:34to members
44:35of the public
44:36and we want
44:36to let the
44:36public know
44:37that we go
44:38back to our
44:39communities too
44:39we live
44:40we are neighbors
44:41we are uncle
44:42we are you know
44:43we were not
44:43imported we didn't
44:44come down here
44:44from a particular
44:45country
44:46right here we
44:47came from
44:47and therefore
44:48we meet and
44:49we talk and
44:49we chat and
44:50we go on the
44:50field
44:50and we
44:51interact and
44:52we understand
44:53the pain
44:53we understand
44:54when somebody
44:55knocks on your
44:55door what is
44:55happening you
44:56have to look
44:56you have to
44:56tell the person
44:58to take off
44:58the light
44:58you know so
44:59we are familiar
45:00with the
45:01unfortunate
45:02elements and
45:03how the
45:04times that we
45:05live in and
45:06therefore it is
45:06incumbent on us
45:07to also to be
45:09good committee
45:09leaders as well
45:10and don't feel
45:11that because we
45:11are officers
45:12we must isolate
45:13ourselves so I
45:14want to thank you
45:14very much
45:15and their
45:16officers also
45:16doing excellent
45:17work doing
45:18the call of
45:18duty and
45:19continue to
45:20pray and
45:20support them
45:21find out what
45:21they are doing
45:22drop a case of
45:23water you know
45:24adopt a child
45:25God has called
45:26us to be mentors
45:27and has called
45:28us to work with
45:29the less fortunate
45:30I think once that
45:31is done then it
45:33is an effective
45:34tool in crime
45:35fighting
45:35yes
45:36and so the
45:38second point
45:39you raise
45:40call of course
45:40when we do
45:41these interviews
45:42we ask persons
45:43you know sometimes
45:44they just decide
45:45that they want
45:46their hands
45:47shown and so
45:47on but point
45:48taken of course
45:49but sometimes
45:50you would shoot
45:50another location
45:51while you speak
45:52to us so we
45:53are very mindful
45:54of that as well
45:55because when you
45:56go into some
45:56communities persons
45:57would like to
45:58speak but of
45:59course they don't
45:59want to be
45:59identified for
46:00fear of any
46:01kind of victimization
46:02or reprisal or
46:03anything of the
46:04sort so we try
46:05to be responsible
46:06in that measure
46:07and we respect
46:08everyone's in this
46:10case the gentleman
46:10did agree to have
46:12his hands and so
46:14on shown during
46:16that interview

54:03road traffic accident in the
54:04orange grove road area in the
54:06vicinity of the orange grove
54:07lights that took place i think
54:10sometime yesterday and in the
54:12same breath corporal shabody we
54:15are getting into the weekend and a
54:18lot of people are going to be on
54:19the roads going to the point for
54:20to borrow the festivities they

54:26urge persons on the roadways to be
54:29careful do not drink and drive yes
54:32well over and over we we i mean to
54:33say this program has spared um so
54:37many different speakers officers um
54:39that speaks to the fact of the black
54:41carpet and how reckless people could be
54:43on the road and sometimes we have to
54:46ask drivers to do the due diligence to
54:48pop them something and say why are
54:49you driving you know and and develop a
54:52sense of policing even on the road
54:54after those who are being reckless
54:57there's no need to speed and then you
54:59cannot see a police vehicle as just a
55:01vehicle it is also an instrument that
55:04can kill that can take lives is a deadly
55:07weapon driven by the wrong and only
55:10wrong hands and under the influence and
55:12there's enough footage the enough
55:14carnage there's enough pictures and
55:16photos yes that we could show in terms
55:19of life being lost in terms of of
55:22people reckless on the road so we
55:25are appealing to people you know let
55:27them get mad with you tell them
55:28what about why you're driving so pop
55:30them several times let them be
55:31annoyed let them know that you you
55:33you have recognized the reckless
55:35driving if it's your officer footed
55:37on pull over say officer look yes and i
55:40want to applaud people who have cameras
55:42you know to have cameras installed in a
55:44vehicle that is absolutely excellent
55:46where the tape on the show and the
55:49dash cams yes that is excellent and i i
55:51spoke to the maxi taxi only taxis i'm
55:54taxing last week in terms of installing
55:56that remember the taxi driver who was who
55:58died as a result the took his car yes
56:02right and i tell him that cameras are
56:04also very important installing those kind
56:06of gadgets are also very important and
56:09keeping in touch forming a nice little
56:10group and to keep people posted in
56:13terms of the way about because times
