Leader of the United Workers Party Lennox Linton has filed an official complaint to the police about what he said is criminal trespassing on his property in Morne Daniel.
Linton told a press conference today that he wrote a letter dated October 18th to the Police Chief Daniel Carbon, asking that those who were involved in the act be investigated and charged.
On May 19th 2019, CCTV Cameras installed at Linton’s home showed a Caucasian man entering his yard and dropping off a black bag on his doorstep, but leaving with it.
There was also another video with the same man repeating the act but instead leaving the suitcase on his doorstep only to have another Caucasian man yanking it off Linton’s doorstep moments later.
The UWP claims that via their investigation they have found evidence that identifies the men as British nationals that the UWP alleges were paid by the Dominica Labour Party (DLP) to carry out what Linton called “mischief” during the elections.
“I checked the archives of my surveillance system and found that two Caucasian men in fact visited my home in the afternoon of May 19th 2019,” he said. “They made three separate attempts to pretend that a black travel bag allegedly containing $1 million was left outside my door and on each of the three occasions the said black travel bag, the content on which was never revealed was taken away by the perpetrators of the criminal conspiracy.”
Lennox continued, “No bag was left on my premises on May 19th, 2019.”
The letter further read, “I suggest to you Sir that these two British citizens should be investigated and charged with the offense of criminal trespass to my property and conspiracy with those who instructed, engaged or facilitated them to commit public mischief.”
Linton went on to say the he is satisfied that there is ample evidence.
“This is a labour party conspiracy against Lennox Linton…,” he remarked.
Linton said his party is also in the process of writing to the President, His Excellency Charles Savarin.
“For now we start with the Police Commissioner, I am in the process of writing to the President of the Commonwealth of Dominica, because on the 30th of September we wrote to the President and delivered that letter to the President’s residence on Victoria Street,” he revealed.
Linton said further that the President has since replied basically asking for evidence on the issues addressed in the letter.
“Sometime later this week we are going back to the President with evidence on what we spoke about,” Lennox explained. “He says once he sees the evidence he will be willing to facilitate a sit-down meeting with us and hopefully to engage with the government on what’s going down.”
Linton said a copy of the letter of complaint and evidence will also be sent to the British High Commissioner.
This LINTON guy has gone INSANE.If there is a case of CRIMINAL TRESPASS,which I have NEVER seen in our LAW BOOKS.Where does the PRESIDENT come in?if the matter is a FELONY it goes to the HIGH COURT.If is a MISDEMEANOR,the LOW COURT deals with it.That is determined by the DOMINICA POLICE.That BS about FBI,CIA,INTERPOOL MI5,MI6 is coming from a deranged man.The guy wrote to the Queen about a DOMINICAN,Patricia Scotland who made a statement in Dominica.The BIG IDIOT and STUPID supporters NEVER got a reply.Talking about SCOTLAND YARD in a BOGUS 1.2 billion as if Scotland Yard have time to WASTE on a JACK A.And his supporters like,Viewsexpress,Ibo France,Massacre,Telemaque …………………..Evidence 1.2 billion is missing is multiply 3,961 by 50,000= 1,200,000,000.Foolish UWP.
So there I was thinking finally I’m going to hear some policies on education, health, housing, social care, economic development, etc etc, because in three years all I’ve heard is CBI. First it must go, then it must stay but change, now it is so successful that it generated so much money that the PM hide 1.2 billion under his pillow.
Instead, I am hearing of a crime that took place in May, only reported 10 months after, now prejudiced because its been discussed openly in public.
Now the video in question don’t matter. Becuase just before that was another video porported to be a BBC report with FBI investigation. I have a three week old kitten, and even she walked away shaking her head. That anyone could believe it says it all.
Now how difficult is it for any body to make any of these videos? They are not exactly work of arts. So why openly slander individuals with no proof?
Especially, if you’ve reported the matter to the police? What investigations can they do after…
DNO, can you clear the air ? Do we have criminal trespass laws in Dominica? Do we have civil trespass laws I Dominica ?
Then since this matter happened in May can Linton be charged for withholding evidence ?
Then because the time frame allowed the trespassers to escape can Linton be charged with aiding and abetting?
If what Linton claim is not true can he be charged with criminal mischief ?
Because Linton made a report will the onus of proof have to come from him (the evidence ) ?
ADMIN: These are all questions for those conducting the investigations.
They made the trees grow and the grass green as again
This is really a Soap Opera. What a story to tell? This is even worst than President Donald Trump fake news. A surveillance is installed on your property and since May 2019 a crime or act of crime was committed and only now it is reported? I smell a big fat rat.
@ Dominican, The uwp have a record of trying to paint Skerrit and the DLP as a criminal interprise.
They have many agents involve working the media who are in direct contact with Linton alone.
Their goal is to take down Skerrit by any means necessary because of quid pro quo promises. Now he is getting desperate because he cannot see a way to deliver on those promises.
There are ideas pertaining to the black bag. Is it a warning like that of the old Sicilians during the Roman Empire.
He claim that he does not know who did it but, does not know who done it, but with the same voice he is spinning a pointed finger at the DLP.
you and MBD must be on the skerro payroll.
“They have many agents involve working the media who are in direct contact with Linton alone.

Everything in quotes sounds like your’e talking about the dlp governing practices.
@ Dominican, The uwp have a record of trying to paint Skerrit and the DLP as a criminal interprise. Nice one.
Mr. So Called Joseph John, if you are not in tuned with the events taking place, shut up, be quiet and go read,, research and analyse. You are well versed on the matters and operations of “criminal Enterprise”. As the saying goes, if yo live in glass house, never throw stones at your neighbours and this is where you are ignoramous.
For you being in denial, ignoramous, political ignorant to current issues, silly and blind to the failure of Skerrit in front of, meaning that you are in denial of the failure of this immature Skerrit and your incompetent Labour Government.
You blindly said Mr, Blind John, reference that your “:corrupt Labour Government is well versed on the matters and operations of “criminal Enterprise”. Here is the evidence: 1.The Bin Bobol, 2.The Fertilizer Bobol, 3.The Red Clinic Bobol, 4.The Passport Bobol, etc. The abuse of states funds & the…
“Their goal is to take down Skerrit by any means necessary because of quid pro quo promises”. Yes, we are concerned about our tax money not being in any corrupted, big Bobol matters. We will attempt to trust that failed Skerrit under conditions that our states funds, our hard earned money is not abused in the following “Bobol” activities that we have declared. Recall, when The Right Hon. Lennox Linton exposed the Fertilizer Bobol etc in the USA, that the conflict of interest where a family member was used to purchase either the Bin or Fertilizer and we were not sure that our money was accounted for, and Skerrit fire of lies and deception and deals went all over the place and if I recall said it was a mistake. Well, the thievery was already exposed by our decent trusted Hon Linton. Great and Trusted Guy, we trust fully to be Prime Minister of Dominica with his professional UWP dedicated Team. Skerrit isn`t at that level. He`s politically and governance wise a big failure. He must…
Dominican to the bone, I fully agreed with your comment this guy is a disgusting failure and a village idiot, in a matter of fact i can smell more than a rat, more likely a nasty hyena only problem he is not as smart hyenas are smarter. What a joke after 6 months of a suspicious was left at your home now is the time he decided to call the police man go away we are not as stupid as your followers go to hell Mr ugly rubber nose.
Why did he not publish the evidence ? I hope when he meets the Presidenr again it will be at a round table aired press conference with the CID in attendance.
When Lennox speak about writing the British High Commissioner how is he going to deliver it. (through the post office ?)
This guy is so transparent with his show boating, he thinks he is smarter than a fifth grader.
Your logic, along with your common sense is …. questionable
Someone in high office told me UWP party been asking the government of Dominica for money to help finance their election campaign if that is true I can’t believe it i know Linton is an embarrassment but that’s taking the biscuits.
Man bites dog I catch you, but all u say the white man gave linton 1 million dollars . what currency again??
Well since last election Linton has been promoting the idea that government should make financial contribution to political parties to meet their campaign expenses….that was really trying to take the biscuits.
Man Bites Dog, you are damn liar, and you and so called irrelevant scouts of Skerrit. Go clean up all you dirty labour homes first before you go pointing that finger at others while you have four fingers pointed back at you. Are you able to work this out? No!. Well go in your labour corrupt mirror, stand in front of it and point that finger at the mirror and tell us what you see and are you are able to put it in perspective. I hope so, because the rubbish you pen in attempt to raise your failed Skerrit is not working and will not work. He is a failure and has killed our agricultural markets and our farmers are struggling at home, suffering because Skerrit has oved to agriculture to this corrupted Passports sales business that does not help our Dominica develop in anyway. Skerrit is just this fanfare clown, uses our states funds, travel here there everywhere and returns empty handed talking BS to our people in need of jobs.
We need change in government. Skerrit must Go. Linton UWP in.
This man is truly a VERB. We got the complainant, we got the exhibit, we got a suspect. In our investigations, we use the famous letters W. when, where, why and by whom. We find the trespassers and questioned them. You were against issuing of passport, so, how do we trace them?. The investigator seek outside help if needed. Why do you take on your own accord to bring in outsiders? You must pay them from your own pocket. They catch me, in the roro, on video, in camera they catch me.
If this act of cowardice and willful desperation by Roosevelt skerrit and his gang do not infuriate dominicans to hit the streets with protest actions nothing will.
This corrupt cabal of the DLP resembles what’s going on in the United States with all the corruption and cover-up that’s taking place. This is a sign of desperation and an obsession to win at any cost.
Boy you Linton is really an empty barrel. That should be the first think you should do. But it’s obviously the last. If you are calling on the the police to investigate. Let them do their job. You blow it out of proportion already.
Oh my. Mr Linton bybthe way if you say you do not know the man how do you now a British man. You girl a complaint but I do hope you do not embarrassed yourself
Stop being an ……! These people entered and left a Dominica and entry/ exit cards were filled. They arrived by airplane so there is a passenger list. So we have the documents at immigration plus their passports were scanned. You see, people like u who play investigator deliberately to lie and misinform others is sickening. All these records are now there and u fortunately for Skerrit the opposition have police friends too. Further that is public documents and the truth shall reveal. Watch this pace😎😎
“the men as British nationals that the UWP alleges were paid by the Dominica Labour Party (DLP) to carry out what Linton called “mischief” during the elections.
Mr. Linton Sir, what is the point of filing that complaint? You have already decided who was responsible for that incident; will you accept what is discovered from the investigation, if it says the DLP had nothing to do with the incident?
Also, you said: “They made three separate attempts to pretend that a black travel bag allegedly containing “$1 million” was left outside my door”. Well, if you know who is “they” however you received that information, why file a complain; why not just tell the police whom they should arrest and charge?
“and on each of the three occasions, the said black travel bag, the content on which was never revealed” Is that not a contradiction? If the contents of the bag were never revealed how did the “they” know about the 1 million dollars?
I rest my case!
You realize the $1 million claim was initially put forth I’m articles by non-credible news sources right? The same articles that labourites ran with to condemn Mr. Linton. The purpose of the investigation would naturally be to end all the speculation and get to the truth of the matter.
And your question asking why Linton doesn’t tell the police who “they” are makes no sense because you do not know the full content of the letter that was written to the police. You cannot reasonably expect to get all the details in a press conference.
Linton your case is pellucidly clear..If no action is taken within a set time, call Dominicans out on the street, to force the police to do their job..Within 12 hours you assembled about 15000 people on the bayfront..Take a day, then you can easily get a crowd of 20000. Get the attention of the regional and international press also!!
Skerrit:
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money
My boy %, Lenox Linton you got to stay in the limelight to remain relevant. Where did you find the 15000 people you are bragging about, even though there are pictures you are still lying 🤥, it’s just in your DNA. I passed through Marigot and what I saw was frightening to %. The people of Marigot are actually flying red flags 🚩. The young people are actually in on the ground flagging and conveying their messages. Lenox Linton, in order to be PM, you have to win Marigot. Do you understand that Dominica isn’t a sovereign state? What does Barbados 🇧🇧 have to do with the internal problems of Dominica. Are you that ignorant or the law! How can you govern and being clueless of basic laws. Your calling Dominicans out in the streets is useless, it’s only family no friends 👬who usually show up
“Hon. Linton said a copy of the letter of complaint and evidence will also be sent to the British High Commissioner.” Yes, for sure in Barbados. It would be helpful to copy the Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his Foreign Secretary to investigate this matter with Hon.Linton said a copy of the letter of complaint and evidence will also be sent to the British High Commissioner to investigate this eventful charade upon a decent politician in Dominica, Hon. Lennox Linton.
We really need change of government in Dominica. We have been brought to the abyss where we no longer produce any products to sell overseas, but to have Skerrit now, so desperate,, elections in on the way, si he talking Labour BS nonsense and he, failed incompetent Skerrit expects us to hail him. I will really flog him that is what he deserves for where he has brought our nature Isle. After 19 years Skerrit has killed our agriculture, reduced our people as beggars and has no knowledge of what development is all about.
No point to copy Boris Johnson. He is as bad as Skerrit and Trump. This three are all cut from the same cloth. Power hungry egoists and serial liars. Every thing they are doing is about them and never for the country they ought to serve!
A very necessary and wise move..The same complaint letter should be sent to OAS, Commonwealth Secretariat , CARICOM etc since this was a clearly frame attempt intended to sabotage the UWP in the upcoming elections..Let us see copy of the letter..
Wait but isn’t Dominica a sovereign nation what are they going to do
A sovereign nation, dependent on foreign handouts. Don’t make me laugh. Dominica can not do anything for itself except legitimise kleptomania.
Me not only Dominica is a public nation, but there is no protocol for any person to write the foreign entities those uwp are shouting about. Are they going to use the post office ?
Tell the people what really happened to the Dass and the land.

A change is coming, Thus the fraudulent labor stooges are desperately looking for new antics to conduct mischief. I am now convinced that they are making space for a new government.
“Linton files official complaint to the police for trespassing on his property” :Why now after all that time months later boy those police at the station must be having a great laugh 😂 i could just imagine those guys saying what a plunker Linton must be a village idiot. All that crap writing to the British high commissioner rubbish Linton Lair you know dam well UK officials are interested in you and your associates Linton, your card is marked look who is looking at you only a matter of time!!!
when did the story of the 2 men came out ? wasn’t it last month . if somebody accuse you of something 3 months down the line and you wasn’t aware of this accusations .. don’t you prove it when needed ? when somebody steal in a business is only when you notice you missing money do you review your tapes .. nobody seats and watches surveillance tapes all day . you watching too many movies. You all must use common sense and stop thing inside the box .
Super G, please don’t forget to switch off the battery in your head you are a waste of time!
@super G, –nobody seats and watches surveillance tapes all day; but 5 months later? What is the point of the surveillance, in the first place?
liz, maybe if you publish the tapes after 5 months the “trespassers” will have time to make their escape unidentified. These people think they can fool all the people all the time. now they are planning to write ghost letters. They first said they will write CIA, FBI, and Interpol. They say those two men are British nationals but they forgot Scotland Yard. Then they go to the police at the last hour without evidence, after they went public with all kinds of accusations.
They even accused the PM of planning assassination of “Lennnoxx
Linton”.
No time for law suite distraction now we have an election to win, but that statement about a criminal conspiracy is cause for civil libel.
I have not known, not one comment from this failed Man bites Dogs where readers have given him that Thumbs up. Majority i=f not al that I have read, are all the Red down, get lost finger (Thumb).
Fir this guy, Skerrit is the key, the master and our Domininca means absolutely nothing to this man who goes about biting dogs littered with fleas all over its body. We need Skerrit out of our government, he is that immature, Clueless of that bigger picture of development failure and highly incompetent of running our country, which is a big challenge. After 19 years our roads are still bad, our rural people have no jobs and our agriculture and bananas are an issue to be dealt with. What on earth has incompetent Skerrit and his failed Labour questionable Bobol Party done for our nature Isle and our suffering people. The Red Clinic is an very excessive corrupted one. Our Welfare Division has been insulted as Skerrit now operates the Red Clinic from his office. the Welfare Officers are now out.
About Time the parties wronged treated this with the seriousness it entails .These were foreign nationals who you want us to believe you have identified .Now you have named them , this must be taken to the highest level , or prepare yourself for law suits . Had this been done in the UK , say by foreign mercenaries, there would have been terrorism charges and media coverage world wide, warning parties concerned of the dangers lurking on their door step .
It is a possibility, that black case could have been filled with explosives , and, as the intended victim was not home to receive it there was a change of plan .
The facts leading up to such presumptions are, tickets to facilitate immediate departure of the attackers were in place , come in, commit your crime, and depart before the …. hits the ground . Travelling arrangements and security from and to the airport facilitating quick exit after the hit , By the time the victim, was found dead at the front door, they’re long…
ell said Dee, well put together. Congrats.
who the hell are these guys, dressed in suits and how and why where they up trespassing at Hon. Linton’s House, way up there. Why is it that these men have not been arrested and go before the courts. How on earth did they arrive in Dominica, for what and who invited them and the key question is, How did they know Hon Lennox Linton and for what?
Hon Linton, we share your challenge and we wish you well and we are with you and the UWP in moving Dominica and its people forward. We are crying for good governance and decency in our country and we will have decent government and good governance in our country.
We welcome Hon Lennox Linton and his highly professional UWP Team .
So, you finally broke your silence under public pressure. We know they were British Nationals, are they the same ones who are writing your speech for you. Made a complaint to the Police,matters will be investigated and if sufficient evidence is found, a charge will be brought against the defendant. But you cannot tell the police how to do their jobs.
Strange after 6 months and showing the video all over you finally get the nerves to go to the police after investigating it on your own who you think you can fool with this you spread the news about missing money that is dyeing out so you bring up the video and if the police is looking into it you are interfering with the investigation by naming people you think that’s involve like your remaining supporters say you are very smart.
I hope when u get a camara system u sit down every day looking at the videos to see if somebody on your lawn . I put camara systems for a living and 95 percent of my owners dont even know how to review or even watch the live videos .. So you dont think he had to be accused of something then call an IT technician to come review the material . Dont you think he have to review and pile up his investigation before going to the police .. thats what all camara owners do ..when they get evidence they send it in
And nothing is going to come from this, However if this was Mr Skerrit’s porch or Mr Blackmore….ah boy! Two van load of police would be patrolling and looking for evidence.
Like police protection is for one set
LINTON you have to make a REPORT to the Police at Police Headquarters.The Police will record your report.The report will be assigned to an INVESTIGATING OFFICER.The Investigating officer will.QUESTION you LINTON,and all witnesses involved.In your CASE the POLICE will examine and keep all exihibits.A charge is put against the ACCUSED.A case file is then prepared.The case file go through a chain of COMMAND up to the DEPUTY COMMISSIONER.If this matter is a CASE for the HIGH COURT it goes to the DPP.So writing to CARBON and the BRITISH HOME OFFICE is BS.Nicholas George a former Superintendent should advise LINTON.Writing the QUEEN about BARONESS SCOTLAND.Linton never received a reply.STUPID.LAZY LYING man
Did he really write the Queen ? Did he send his letter through the post office with the Queen’s name and address on it. Wow. And uwp followers still think he can be a great PM. What an embarrassment.
Don’t expect them to take you on..it will be swept under the carpet. If it was the other way round all now somebody would be held responsible…
“UWP alleges were paid by the Dominica Labour Party to carry out what Linton called “mischief” during the elections.”
WHERE is the NEXUS that ties the DLP to this video??
Look, all those Labour Rats come crawling out of their hole again and whistle for are share of the election money. What a set of irrelevant and corrupt creatures…
AA I never knew u could smile a little too late for that Lol continue walking wit ur boo-way face that’s how we know u too be
I thought that once the police saw a crime is about to be committed or is actually committed, then they would be in a position to act..Is Dominica an exception to the rule?
So why do those officers go on Facebook and other social media forms to scavenge for incitement charges, against the opposition!
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money,?
Skerrit as the big kid he is,shame on this damn guy.How low will you continue to go Skerrit?
Linton based on what is available to the public, most Dominicans have already concluded that this was an act of mischief by those concerned..In addition to our local police, (which is a broken organisation), and the British High Commissioner), i think you should contact other bodies world wide, because it is clear that those behind this plot wanted to harm you!
Thank God the attempt failed, and the wicked devils are paying the political price!
Lintonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Whey is di money.
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money?
Only now! Why the delay. Is it too hot to handle?
It was a smart move to wait as you see a part of the video surfaced and not the full thing. So someone had motives and therefore the reason for coming out now.
He was waiting for allu corruption scandal to unveil then he would act. Very smart man indeed!
I listened to the conference and there was so much confusion. Joshua says this, then Mr. Linton says that. These people are so not ready. Their defining moment was after Maria. UWP wants to be rewarded for another man’s hard work. Unbelievable! DLP, for the continued transformation of Dominica!
“for the continued transformation of Dominica!”
@DC, I like your words above! That is truly what’s happening to our Dominica, formed by God and delivered by PM Skerrit.
I don’t know why those people who continue to oppose the work of God, will not step aside and consider their own carnal “mind renewal” so to enter their own fleshly “transformation”.
DC
I would suggest you close your eyes , stop and think , imagine how transformed Dominica would be if only Funds (Dominica’s monies )had not been misappropriated , sifted through the wrong channels ,wasted on campaigning etc etc .
have you ever stop to think that the duties you pay on your travelling tickets , the duties you pay at customs , the duties your friends and relatives pay on their barrels , is utilized on travelling expenses for Mellisa , her mum , her sister , her friends , her family , the P Ms chosen clappers and cheerers ; ahhh margwaysar all your taxes like that .
but is awright Customs can squeeze you again if they need to
It’s ok, maybe it’s not really your hard earned money.
So this happened in May and you waited until October to file the complaint? If you were so concerned about trespassing on your property then why wait so long to file your complaint? hmnnnnnnnn
@Smell like a Rat
He acted appropriately.. He did so only after those involved tried to discredit him..
This shows how brilliant Linton is! Do you know the statute of limitations of criminal offences like this one? Just stop your nonsensical talk sir/madam. Now the fall out is having it’s effect on those involved..
Skerrit:
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money?
Dear smell lile a rat (fitting name).
This was staged and planned by the DLP in May, but only released in October. It was only after it was released that Lennox checked his camera and found the real truth, not only the two white criminals, but also ………………………………..More to come, stay tuned.
Admin, thanks for adjusting my comment, It was only after I posted it that I should have adjusted the comment.
it’s not that… that’s freakin me out you know this said opposition leader said that ,there’s frets against his life how is it that u’re not checkin ur camera everyday or other day?
