Alleged Marigot Credit Union robbers Mitchel “Dish” Joseph and Princeton George were granted bail when they appeared in court.
Joseph got bail in the sum of $280,000 while George’s bail sum was $250,000.
Joseph was originally granted bail in the sum of $250,000 and was supposed to surrender all his travel documents to the court as a condition for bail. However, he reported to Magistrate Ossie Lewis that he could not locate his passport.
The accused bail conditions were therefore revisited and he is to report to the Portsmouth police station every day instead. In addition, he is to notify the court if he has intentions of applying for a passport. His father Michael Joseph stood as surety for him.
George must also report to the Portsmouth Police Station everyday, as condition of bail. His mother Marcia Joseph stood as surety.
Joseph and George were arrested along with Michel Azille, Iam Massicott and Jamie Andrew for the March 9th robbery of the Marigot Credit Union.
They are facing charges of attempted murder, conspiracy, aggravated burglary, trespassing and possession of a firearm.
According to police the money and firearms used in the commission of the crime have not yet been recovered.
The men are all from Portsmouth and are being represented by attorney at law Wayne Norde.
The accussed cannoot accuse the accused uno, dunno if most yall know that, people thats socitey for us righ there, we live in a third world country, ofcourse their will be corruption in the government and in the police force, watch the candidates they recruitted for poliece officers, most of them have commeitted crimes etc, their will always be murderers,parrows,doctors etc. “What the Government should do is adopt d chinese jailing system, let their familes support people who are jailed instead of wasting tax payers money to support criminals”
that right here is pure crap, we doe get money n firearms but fellas out to hide it??? what is this for me nah, the court system makes police work harder n criminals are laughing… they sayin lemme do crime n i will get bail. fk
with parents like those who stood as surety for those criminals who needs to find a job and an honest way of living? it is no wonder the same kids are repeated offenders because their socalled good parents run to the rescue cause their babies are so innocent. mama avec papa suotiwer.KEEP BAILING THEM UNTIL THEY REALLY KILL THEN YOU ALL WILL STOP.
We need Behanzine back.
What can we do to get him back?
He is now on the other side..lol
Utilise them. Take a thief to catch a thief or rather, take a criminal to fetch a criminal.
Too long over due. You guys have one month to find Seekko Secko, bring him alive and you will be granted 250,000 USD reward. Check under Carette’s cotton mattress for the file.
Deal or no Deal?
are these the monsters that attack that poor little french girl??????
awa
What happen, too cute for jail? Big Bobba will harm you? Miss your mama’s johnny cakes and cocoa? They should stay in jail until their trial. Watch out citizens. Be prepared to defend yourselves and take them out!!!
This is ridiculous! These guys are dangerous they
had illegal guns, attemped murder on police officers they should not be on the street. These
lawyers that are working with these guy love the
blood money. What a shame!
They committed atrocious crimes and they are granted bail? One said he could not locate his passport. Did the magistrate believe that? He may have hidden it somewhere or that he gave it to someone who is using it. Who knows? If so, the person may be overseas.
There should be a Law. “Know where thy passport is at all times.” If they cannot locate their passport, they should report it immediately to the authorities. The saying, a person without a passport is a person without a country.
The firearms and money was not located and he is released on bail? How can he be released if they are not found? This baffles me. I hope he and his family are kept under close scrutiny. Someone has the money and is hiding it and probably using it. They know where they put their money. Why is the money not found? Does Dominica not have a lie detector system? If not, government authorities, get one as soon as possible.
We’ll we’ll we’ll see wat happen soon.mickey and rosemary be sure ur sins wil find u out for dish
I want them to come to america and do crime see if they will see a rainbow again. Is jail they jaiing them. No outside. Bail for attempted murder. I had better stay where i am cause dominica is not safe anymore. All crime is i know somebody that know somebody. The justice system is embarassing other people who actually studied law and has it as a passion. Murderers or attempted murderers never get bail like that. Boy where they get their degree from?
The system sucks. These guys are consider to be
dangerous. Why? They attempted to kill law en-
forcement officers, weapons and money from the
robbery was never recovered they are really treats
to the society, frankly speaking they should be
behind bars. I hope that they don’t take these
guns and attack again.
stupess….Portsmouth has no need for these two criminals back on its streets again….note the trend….since their incarceration and the death if there boosom buddy A.Drigo, Portsmouth has been reverted back to its peaceful state. Yes, other incidents have occurred but not of the calibre that these worthless dogs have committed. I am not a happy Portsmouth resident after reading this news………#just my two cents
Do’nt worry your heads my peopleif they do clean their act these two and the others not around for long.We the people of Possie and souruondings will do what we have to do.You guys open fire on our police officers,robb poor people,rape,and comitt other notorious crimes and think is so it is,well I think is time we help ourselves.You guys will not terrorise good law abiding citizens,you will not damage our tourist industry and yes we want your lawyers to put you back on the streets for us.It is clean up TIME!!!!
Set them free! That’s the legal way to cancel them…they are aware that their days are numbered.
Thank you wicked lawyer and judge for making it once again hell living in Portsmouth.. they are back in Picard robbing and hurting people…. May God have mercy on you for being so heartless for the people of Portsmouth… I need to get out of here… those criminals are BRUTAL! Everything is bail bail bail… we should protest and bail you guys out of Dominica…
I have my entire family in Posrtmouth and I feel very uneasy about these two guys being granted bail. People in Possie, keep all you eyes open on these two. Don’t give them the opportunity to strike at any of the law abiding citizens in Portsmouth. Doh fraid to boss their and let them know what time it is.
ebeh dish father not east bailing him. all of sudden he cant find his passport and u mean the judge accept that crap excuse. is for him to dig out back door self and for the father to lose whatever he put up as surety. hope is not his house. too frigging sutiweh!!
its ok .he doh have to find it to surrendER ,but he will get it now ,i hear he have a visa so let him come up to america and yes he will do it again bcuz is up there that have things to steal and gun to run things .BUT OUR LAWS UP HERE NOT LIKE THE PETTY LAWLESSNESS THEY HAVE IN DOMINICA
A criminal in uk killed father and son . He was given bail and he killed two more policewomen this week!
i have a feeling they gonna have special agents checking out mister dem movements when they let them go so they can get some info
What message are we sending to visitors about their safety in Dominica and our seriousness on crime? We need Behanzine to speak out on that. He seems to be quiet these days.
I wonder what Behanzine would be saying now,that he is now defending the criminals. He used to be so hard on the criminals, now that he is defending them. Just inquiring?
wanna no to!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A SWITCH……….
Behanzin still strong on criminals, in fact he appears to be only appearing where there is a constitutional breach and obvious police abuse of prisoners. The same magistrate who denied his client bail gave Dish and others bail without any restrictions! Magistrate Lewis got a serious tongue lashing by Behanzin! Most of his cases involve sueing doctors and insurance companies, he does not take on serious crime. My padner in Possy has an insurance claim and once Behanzin got involved he received his money in three days, my other friend got his payment in four days! Police now fraid and doctors who continue to make mistakes will pay, so stop giving the man a undeserved bad name!
We really need Behanzine. Dominican streets needs a clean up.
Mickey and Marcia more wicked and soutiwey to have bailed these vagabonds to unleash them again on the Portsmouth and wider Dominican society. They know well that these kids of theirs are unrepentant criminals and WILL go back to their criminal ways again. I just hope that the parents themselves are not profiting from their children’s criminal proceeds. Dish boy you better behave yourself eh this time. Remember the same thing happened to your partner Armstrong who always got out on bail, and see where he is now. Hope it’s not your turn next!!! BETTER BEHAVE YOURSELF BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When you have children you will talk about who being sootiweh. Which parent you know of that will not bail their children even when they do wrong? By no means am I saying what they did was right but still you can’t blame the parents. That’s just ridiculous to me! Old people would say you make children but you don’t make their minds. Oh you think it was a drop of water to put up all that money. please! Any loving parent would do exactly what they did those parents who do not something is wrong somewhere. Daily our heavenly father give us chances so who are you to have all that to say?
Don’t you think that, at some point, kids become adults, ought to become responsible for their lives, without seeking for parents to bail them out of their problems. Only human being that are suckers to their offsprings misdeeds. I like the ways of animals. Notice how the “raise” their children. I think we can learn from that. I’ll say no more. Let my children stray from their moorings and seek to bring shame of me and society! They no better than to expect any sympathy from me. You live like a man, you take it like a man. That will forever be my motto.
well their parents are not the ones that are suffering .
Armstrong is dead n allu need 2 let his soul rest in peace!!! This is not about him so leave him out of this
why should someone with all these charges granted bill as so some say 10% of the should go to the treasury i would say 3/4 of that should go to the treasury and bigger amount of money should be pay for serius crime now tht every country is crying about the world crisis. Any crime involving in a firearm should never be granted bill you meant to kill
Easy solution. Chief you should be very aware of the state of mind of those criminals. Read the history of your police force past opperations and take charge; may not be popular but will help.Here is an opportunity to make people disappear while on bail. DO IT..Some will refuse bail..if u know what I mean…
It is my observation that since these guys were apprehended, there has not been any major crime wave of rape, assault or stealing reported in the media.No rental reported missing/ stolen. No tourist accosted etc…
With this current development, my logical mind can only think of a resurgence of these events now that these guys are out on the loose and the weapons and cash are still in their possession….I am hoping that I am wrong on this one.
The gov’t of D/ca need to amend the laws to prevent this type of scenarios from repeating. The crimes being accused of in this situation warrants apprehension until investigation are complete and a verdict is reached.
The justice System in dominica is just insane as to the same criminal being caught over and over again and expect a different result!! yes Dominique ou seh our belle payee,
why did they let this criminals go free, don`t to yu all see the criminal faces? come on my people this can`t be happeninig when the evidence of these crimes committed has not been recovered much less to say that they are going to commit more crime as its Independence Time. As for the dish himself, he better watch his @@$$$ out there again!! Why give possie a bad name, come on fellas find some use time, you can`t just waste your life sitting in a jail, common you all have a lto to contributew to society, well i guess prisoners do contribute to becuz they have dem cleaning the road side but these guys like DISH deserve harsh punishments……..There a Cutleries out there so dem better behave themselves!!
Of course nuh, i hope the people complaining about the guys being on bail were not the same people bashing Edison James for begging them fellas to uphold the laws of the land.
but anyways, next level.
Good. They can now submit their application to become prime minister and president. The handsome one for PM and the shorter one for president.
Wayne Norde, again, I can see him singing going down to the bank.
I dont see the reason why these hurdlums were granted bail when it was reported that the guns and cash were not recovered. This is pure madness
Why dont they set up a “Bonds Man” like the USA, when ever a person is granted bail 10 % of that sum goes to the Govt’s. treasury which is non refundable. I think this would help curb crimes on our nature isle
you have a problem with people making money man? If the man get paid for his “work” what is your problem
they should live those bastard inside there because the princeston had say a time he doesnt work for no body… u see now allu will behave and stay in a corner soceity dont want to deal with allu filf
no prob with ppl bringing home bread bt this suggestion will surly boost our economy.. this must be considered……… somebody plzzzzzzzz
Another tourist season, independence, is coming. Guess they made it out in time for some new victims.
Its sad to see what my country has come to be
A lawless land of thievery
With criminals running the street with no fear
The average hard working Dominican throws their hands up in despair
But nothing lasts forever as the saying goes
Your time will come only Jah know
I Domininique
Our treasury need all the cash it can get, so book those amount and deposit it to our treasury. And brace our selves for the start of crimes. cause those alleged criminals have no alternatives but to continue to commit crimes to support their habits. Who let the Dogs out??? Our crooked system!
None of that sum is going to the treasury, no money is turned over, the sureties only signs a form to ensure the appearance of the accused appears at court, now in the event that the accused do not appear at court then the sureties would now have to find tha money to pay to the courts
i thought this site deleted comments which refer to people arrested or charged with a crime as though they had been found guilty,they were only charged but there is no evidence to prove it was them,no money,no guns,no witnesses thats what you get wen police arrrest ppl based on what ppl say instead of policework
So what would u say concerning the one that got shot,would u say that they shoulg charge him alone and allow the others to go free?
@ BEB
Did you give it a thought that the one who got shot probably squealed on them which is why they were arrested? He was not going down alone. If they are caught, they usually do not let their accomplices get away while they are imprisoned. Even in these cases, people do not have friends. They are only friends when they get along with each other and are not caught.
i no u from zicack .u must be a neighbour
Hi, if the Police arrest or charged someone with a crime then hold a news conference about the incident. The information is made public therefore the media can published the information. We have freedom of the press in Dominica. I am coming home for the fest and I want to be safe. I say good job Officers and shame on fthe Courts for granting bail To such vicious criminals. I am not against all bail request but there should be some crimes that don’t qualify for bail.
What do you have to do before they deny you bail in DOM?
Just be connected to something or someone red or hire a lawyer with “good connections” to the/ a magistrates and BAM, you are on bail.
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
kill a man u getting bail.
rob western union u getting bail
pounds of cocain u getting bail
rape a child u getting bail
attempted murder or 3 policemen u getting bail
FOR $5.00 WORTH OF MARIJUANA YOUR KEYS LOST.
oh how i love the sisserou land
@Rock
U forget mano case u practicing law
dual citizenship u winning your case
Bin Bobol u giving refund
that what i say .sorry to say but they need to take the siserou off the flag and replace it with a v for violence .our grand and great grand parents must be crying in their graves
Boss let them man stay in there,but doh worry dem man there must eat some led soon they will try to rob the wrong person in possie.
you got that right and they will surely find out what time of day or night it is ever since mr them going school they causing trouble
how can someone commit such a crime and get out on bail? what kind of justice is this?
IT IS JUSTICE FOR THOSE WITH BIG POCKETS AND INFLUENCE.
then boys need to put behind bars princeton u disapoint me boy dish i expect that from you because u is a criminal
All this is part of the Next Level! Woye, woye, woye something happeningggg and it is smelling of poopoo!
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
“They are facing charges of attempted murder, conspiracy, aggravated burglary, trespassing and possession of a firearm.” YET THEY’RE OUT ON BAIL? Papa God, do these lawyers and magistrates read the sentiments of the Dominican people when it comes to the warped justice system in DA? We don’t want these men on the streets and besides the firearms and money have not been recovered; who is to say they will not go and retrieve them.
So the money have not been re-covered and they on bail….smh….boy dominica doe have justice eh….smh…i canna believe that….them man just going and share that equally on allu wi..
The offense was a bailable one so they would have gotten bail one way or the other… The police had five months to recover that money and the firearms… But i guess their job hard when i 18004468 not involved…
This isn’t right at all. These guys should start robbing the judges and lawyers who put them back on the streets.
Based on the nature of their crime and how it all went down, I am very supised bail is even an option.. always suprised reading dominca news…
I hear the Wesley station top cop father is sick in North America so he went to take care of his old man. Don’t know if he Coming back.But God know how much that man work hard to put criminals away fearlessly.They must Be happy he is gone.
i can add to that a little more because they cause the good cops to leave with the nonsense going on in the force.the people who are working hard to put away criminals and keep our villages n citizen safe are left behind n instead promote people who came from oversdeas pretending to be what they never was..it’s a big joke..ask them wat hav they done in the force to deserve even a corporal stripe.smh.the top cops who work wesley n marigot are still doing their duties without favours…these are the men we need in task force but we would prefer them in our villages protecting us..
big joke in my little country. if the money and gun jave not been recovered don t u think that they are going to reccover their money and go for a shipment of drugs then take it to gwada the same night ? let us say they sign on bail sunday morning 7am they have up to 7am next day to meet a boat outside of possie pick up their drugs and go to gwada to deliver it then return at 5 am.you mean the magistrates don t know that? that reporting to police station when on bail is just a mokery of the whole system. these guys come back out there, get into more trouble and threaten witnesses. them man shot after police a felony and they on bail. where is the opposition to give the government work to do to change these laws. there is so much to be done instead of just skerrit, skerrit skerrit on the radio everyday.come on my people. speak up on the radio stations please. these are some of the things we need to protest about. a word to the wise. rise up people rise up.
the same laws were there when eddie was in power so why should it be changed when skerrit come in power….come on people its been there for ages
But look they twisted and turned the law for the illegal president.
All bad boys out of prison where is our top cop at Wesley? Did he retire is he alive? did he get promoted? I must ask because he changed the North East put all these criminals away and disappear?
Name please and we may be able to help.
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
Hope those young men will do some reflection whilst on bail. They must repent before it’s too late and accept christ as their lord and saviour. I’m a very strong catholic and i believe they need a second chance. God knows their heart, not men. On another note both the evangelical churches and the Christian council need to have an ecunemical service to bring healing to most of our dominican youth and men (specifically our teenage boys).
I don’t think you know more Bible than these two. They were both born and raised in church up in Zicack. If I’m not mistaken, Dish’s father is a pastor (subject to correction on this one).
You right on target my fren, and he is prinson’s grand father, but if yuo remember Prinso, he was a runaway pastor is is prinson’s father so is too much bible they born in… but when you research the parents history, alas, is not those children fault.. the pastor was worst than dish eh, is jsut that in thsoe days there were no guns and people use to siteway their children and neighbours knew how to hush their mouth otherwise dis, prinson and who else would born in stocky
the pastor has a son and grandson there .so bible is not an option (mitchel is his son and princeton is his grandson) .rosemarie have been praying for that child for so many years now ,she would be right to even think that god doesnt answer her prayers
hmmmmm …
soon from now … the gunshots will start ringing again… gas stations robbed again …. rape…
i understand they may have rights under the law but but but ….
I will get myself a firearm for christmas any suspicious moves near my house i shooting first and asking questions later !
I agree with you. I’m sure they will go and retrieve the firearm and money that police officers are yet to recover. I don’t even know what else to say. Each time I see that article, all I can do is smh. Mickey and Marcia stop upholding these young men. I understand you guys are parents but there comes a time for tough, tough, tough love. And with these two men, I think that time is long overdue.
I CONCUR
no sense…… In or out these things happen…and i’m sure your house has nothing worth stealing so COME OUT with you senseless drama about buying firearm for christmas… behhhhh
ok miss jxxxxxl.you must be the one commenting on that one .
Just wondering…who putting up that amount of bail for these guys, leaving them free to roam again?
there parents….. si parni sutiweh parni voleu
…so to give them a chance to “make” that money again, plus plenty of interest. Man, this place is sick!
dish you again…man you must like stock farm
No law, No constitution will hold them behind bars.
uncle and nephew on the loose again .god have mercy
God have mercy on them, because they are being watched closely too
It appears that our laws were not meant to defend the people of Dominica by these criminals, if such is the case we Dominicans will have to defend ourselves from these criminals, if the courts can encourage these criminals we will have to defend ourselves by whatever means necessary. Shame on the court system and the laws of our country
When will Dominica get a Bail Act. Bail is being granted on very subjective grounds.Let us wait and see. Mr. Peters (Attorney General), you rlegacy will be that of having delivered to Dominica a modern “Bail Act”. Added to that the penalties for such crimes must be revisited. eg. Once found guilty the fine is a mimimum of half a million dollars or 40 years in prison, where you must serve a minimum of 25 years before your case can be considered for parole. that should be serve as some deterrrent. although judging from the ease at which our people get bail these days, it is obviouis we have some millionaires among us.
World record dat man ? stupes….big day light robbery, shoot out with police, and dem man get bail…..and the firearms and money not yet recovered, that is a world record boy…those men tried to kill police officers and they have been deemed safe enough to be released to the public….
well the law aint want to protect me….so i go start protecting my self, i taking first chance wi…..
They know exactly where the money and firearms are. Oh please
Well well Princeton looks like he should be still in school
Could not locate passport! Watch this space
so portsmouth wasnt quiet enough? eben possie back on track papa
These two are “facing charges of attempted murder, conspiracy, aggravated burglary, trespassing and possession of a firearm and according to police the money and firearms used in the commission of the crime have not yet been recovered,” and they get bail. What the hell??????
Hmmm, how interesting that he cannot locate his passport. Pretty soon we will hear that he has jumped bail and has left the country. Meanwhile, “According to police the money and firearms used in the commission of the crime have not yet been recovered”
What a joke! Someone, educate me please.
arms and money have not been recovered…..and they get bail. According to the old saying. allu modarar.
Take a thief to catch a thief or rather, take a criminal to fetch a criminal.
Too long over due. You guys have one month to find Seekko Secko, bring him alive and you will be granted 250,000 USD. Check under Carette’s cotton mattress for the file.
