Letter to the public (especially to Bolans Villagers locally and internationally)
There is a rise in qualifying crimes in Antigua and Barbuda: Abduction,
Abusive Sexual Contact, Blackmail, Domestic, Violence, Extortion, False Imprisonment, Female, Felonious Assault, Fraud in Foreign Labor Contracting, Incest, Involuntary Servitude, Kidnapping, Manslaughter, Murder, Obstruction of Justice, Peonage, Perjury, Prostitution, Rape, Sexual, Assault, Sexual Exploitation, Slave Trade, Stalking, Torture, Trafficking, Witness Tampering, Unlawful Criminal Restraint, Other Related Crimes*† (*Includes any similar activity where the elements of the crime are substantially similar), †Also includes attempt, conspiracy, or solicitation to commit any of the above and other related crimes.
The rise in these vicious crimes and the constant comparing of crime rates between countries by ABLP politicians instead of focusing on actual plans and experts to decrease crimes and provide victim advocacy/service is fundamentally harmful to the United Islands of Antigua and Barbuda (UIA&B).
For this reason, I am demanding for there to be a crime victim advocacy panel & a Intelligence & National Security Unit (INSU) formed by the next government of UIA&B.
The ABLP constant ignoring local crimes and focusing on crimes in other nation not impacting Antiguans and Barbudans divert attention from domestic problems and provides a false narrative.
Just look within your family and neighborhood in the last few years and see all your family who were victimized by crimes and then listen to the ABLP PM Gaston Browne and ABLP AG Steadroy Cutie Benjamin expressing the assaults, batteries, robberies, burglaries, larcenies, murders, rapes, and other vicious crimes happening to you and your family are not important because to them, it is not comparable to the victimization people you do not know in Dominica or St. Lucia or Jamaica or Guyana is suffering. Your pain means nothing because pain exist elsewhere. How stupid, inhumane and incompetent.
As an expert in National Security, Criminology, Victimology, Suicidology, Intelligence gathering and analysis and law, if ABLP and their ABLP Attorney General Steadroy Cutie Benjamin, who is also minister of national security, continue to use this comparison to diminish the importance of employing proper crime fighting techniques and crime and terrorism victim advocacy services then ABLP actions will continue to justify the criminals acts against you and allow the Antigua and Barbuda crime problems to continue to victimize you.
ABLP’s actions obviously do not actually address the root causes of crimes in Antigua and Barbuda such as lack of innovative and tailored crime prevention strategies and tools; lack of experts in national security, criminology, victimology; lack of understanding the impact of flooding a small Island with a relatively small populations with large amount of immigrants from other countries like Jamaica, Guyana, Dominican Republic, etcetera (nothing is wrong with these countries but the large amount in such a tiny population and happening in short periods of time have cause and will continue to cause anomie and crimes in the country); the poverty and inequality are problems that must be addressed but have not been considered by ABLP especially in context of crime prevention and the situations victims are in after victimizations.
Ultimately, comparing to UIA&B to a “worse” country is a distraction that shifts focus from the actual safety needs of citizens, suggesting that if things are not as bad as a worst-case scenario, then an unacceptable situation is acceptable.
For this reason, a panel or board must be established, and I believe this board can also be within my Intelligence and National Security Unit (INSU) with folks at the expertise level of CIA, FBI, SEC & NSA agents.
This I believe will not occurred under ABLP as the ABLP PM Gaston Browne have already expressed to me and family members in Bolans village he is not helping in my crime victim advocacy endeavor (that also help in crime fighting).
This is just my way of helping you, especially my friends, family, associates & community in Bolans Village.
