St. Maarten Private Eye

There is an old saying, perhaps you have heard it?

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, or all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time."

I have tried give Taco some leeway, I met him once in passing briefly and he seemed like a nice enough chap. But his recent press release about the Loor Trial last week leaves me with a total lack of confidence that the prosecutors office is capable of even scratching the surface of corruption on the island, even if they wanted to.

I have suggested several times in the past that our public officials and politicians do not seem to grasp the fact that they are not talking to children. Taco informs us that no other investigations of officers are taking place. Loor was a one man operation it seems, a bad apple amongst the shiny and clean ones. What BS!

If we had a real media they would be asking him why Loor was removed last year from Immigration, suddenly and without explanation. They would ask why Janchi dismissed allegations of corruption in January only to eat his hat a few days later with two officers and Gordon Yee being arrested. (What happened to those officers?) Why a couple of months later Loor was then put in charge of the Quick Response unit, only to be arrested a few weeks after.

Please excuse me if I rant a little........

Mr Stein, you may well think you are talking to children, perhaps it is because of the press corps you are faced with when making your press announcements. But even children can see the BS and coverup going on, it's as clear as the day. Your office, Dicky and the Dutch do not have the ability, competance, balls or spine to do what needs to be done here in St. Maarten. Gutless wonders.

Stein: Loor trial is signal that corruption won’t be tolerated - 6th September 2007

Oh, and as for the Police reviewing their 911 procedures, it seems today that the blame is on Telcell. Too damn funny, Fernando needs to book these guys for his next Belly Burst show. Over the past few years I have made several 911 calls that never got answered, they were not from a Telcell phone, there are plenty of stories filed here about 911 calls not being answered.

How difficult is it to have a 911 dispatcher schedule, with a back up plan and with all calls being recorded? Too difficult for our justice officials it would seem.

What a shameful farce it is.
