    then they run away and hide.

    Such an unfortunate incident when you realize a young man came to participate in his culture while contributing to the local economy and lost his life. I am not sure how often we need to say that using violence to settle disputes is never a good thing; actually, it’s counterproductive. I wish the families to be courageous in these difficult times.

    Whoever is responsible for taking his life should be locked away for life. There are too many killings in Dominica.

    I just hope the police have the real perpetrator of this murder. Hopefully, the public will be kept abreast with information on the ongoing investigations.

    I’m not a strong proponent of capital punishment. Having said that, in circumstances of irrefutable evidence that there were no mitigating factors for the killing, the hangman noose should be activated.
