St. Maarten Private Eye

Emails and Allegations

Last week we published the contents of two emails we recieved, emails that were sent far and wide. Two more emails that followed detailed allegations against Sheriff Security and a local attorney.

Some appear willing and even quite eager to dismiss these allegations as the made up stories of a suspect character, some say he is wanted by the CIA or FBI, some say he is a crook too, involved in and wanted for his own sketchy dealings here on St. Maarten and elsewhere. No one has yet provided any information to verify any of this, however, the writer of the emails has provided plenty of information which can be easily investigated and verified or disproved, if the police force and prosecutors office really wanted to.

Regardless of the allegations and stories about the writer, the charges made in his emails are clear, easily investigated and very serious. The longer the authorities refuse to address and look into them the more credence is given to their contents.

We used the House of Cards in the previous blog title and the Jenga image in this one because that is the situation we believe the police force and prosecutors office are in. If they really started to follow these leads and rumors then the whole lot may come crashing down. With the Loor case, the numerous other cases against police and immigration officers, siezures of illegal guns including AK 47's, bank accounts with millions of dollars, huge drug siezures and more, you could say the situation is pretty grim.

It's been pretty grim for a long time now, and a coat of paint isn't going to be enough to cover up the cracks.
