Police in Antigua have taken into custody two of their former colleagues as they continue to investigate the double murder of Dominicans Alix Riviere and Alwin Robin.
Media reports from that island say the two, a recently retired officer and one who left the force just after recruitment years ago, are assisting in the probe since they were allegedly left in charge of the property where the two dead men were found.
Reports indicate that one of the men turned himself in when he heard he was being sought while the other was picked up and charged with another offense.
It is reported that the offense is not related to the double murders.
The bodies of Riviere and Robin were found on October 4 in an area call Cedar Valley. Both men were shot execution style.
Riviere was found with his hands bound and he was severely beaten while Robin was found nearby.
Law enforcement said they found 35 kilos of packaged cocaine in the house which is reportedly worth some $1.4-million.
Antigua media reported that the owner of the house was overseas at the time the incident occurred.
This is my first time pay a quick visit at here annd i am genuinely pleassant to read everthing at alone place.
rip hope others learn
this is the thing why do peoiple behave like he was inoccent people know dat he was a papa drug man he caused people to get killed in this country until he became known a bullet because of the way he live well he die by it wrong is wrong
a real Caricom affair! one police (Byer) from Barbados the other from St. Vincent, two victims from Dominica in a crime committed in Antigua
Me a tell you….
Hello, the murder was a set-up, the drug was a cover-up.
One victim bound and severely beaten the other found nearby.
According to Law enforcement 35 kilos of packaged cocaine found in house supposedly worth approximately $1.4-million.
According to Antiguan media the owner of the house was overseas at the time of the incident.
Question, how long was the owner out? Was the owner living in the house or renting it? Why was the corpse of one victim in the house while his care found in another area? When did the drugs got into the house? Where did the drugs come from? Perfect cover-up, almost perfect crime. Go solve it.
they have to fined out who the person who call aleix why he had to leave his job.
thats what i thought also
The police din’t have any dogs when they were called to the scene to discover the body!
they stated that drugs were found close to the bodies, along with the bodies, so they didn’t have to look for the drugs….check out caribarena.com
This simply means that drugs were found at the time of the discovery…..according to their report.
my question is, how come the family members and friends who were on the scene for hours didn’t see the same drugs that the police saw?…also, how is that no one saw the police carry out anything from the house before they were allowed to enter????….assumingly the drugs, so they didn’t see it????
This simply means that there were no drugs found close to the bodies as the police claimed….the drugs were either planted there and reported days after, or never made it to the house….the picture was taken out at the police headquarters.
Simply a grudge against the man, because he had business in Antigua, and was further exploring more business, in addition to what he has in Dominica…..tell it like it is….a damn cover-up!…..one that wasn’t well thought out, too many loop holes.
in the end, God is always good…Alex’s life will not go in vain so innocently, inspite of what some people may think, in trying to tarnish his excellent reputation and good name…
Dominica Government, it’s time to intervene!…Americans fight for their people irrespective of where in the world they are….what are we doing for ours?
what his friends in high places have to do with anything he was a very nice cool and quiet person with respect and most of all his music system would be the # 1 in dominica almost every event held in the country his system would be use so he was known for that very friendly i miss him so bad especially in creole in the park.R.I.P alwin hope that the murders will be caught i cannot stop thinkin about that brutal murder
alwin r.i.p bro u will surely be miss by the soufriere massive. we were planning big things for dive fest 2013.
wow!!!!!!!!!! dats interestin
please read and understand before commenting, what our govt have to do with that,in antigua that happen.
The deceased were Dominicans, our Government should play a role in the investigation. When a crime is committed against our natives regardless to where the crime was committed it is our Government’s duty to assist in bringing the criminals to justice.
Then I think that the Government would have to send Dominia special police to almost every caribbean country then.
Whether or not it was a set-up is immaterial. How many innocent people do you’ll know were kidnapped, tied, beaten and then executed?
Set-up or not, you make your money in the drug trade and if you are lucky you will end up in prison. If your luck runs out you end up dead. They all know the risk, but they like the good life, so they take their chances always thinking the worse will happen to the other guy.
Congratulations in helping to solve the problem!
seriously wat r u tryin to say ringo. where is drug or not, no man should take anyone’s life. so wa good life you ah talk bout meson. dem man are fathers n brothers u think it right 4 someone to take their life over money…get real.
GOOD POINT
how do you know? were you one of his dealers? Alwin gave up on that long time ago,the man worked hard.
@ Ringo
Not everything that quacks like a duck is in fact a duck!
Even though the individual was tied and beaten, it’s not because he was involved in drugs….he wasn’t. it may have been that they thought he knew something, or simply used as a scapegoat to get to his friend…..God knows, we should not be judging others.
Some of us are lazy and don’t leave our parents’ homes before age 50; not because this young hardworking individual struggled as all Antiguans who knew him will tell you, and worked honestly for a living, building his house at an early age, still owing the bank on his mortgage, that you have to say it’s drugs!
Find out about people before you just blatantly make judgements….again, judge not, lest you be judged!
all i am saying POLICE in that one wee LOOK IT
x police
We need a new Govt too much corrupt officials in high office destroying our land.
You must be loosing your mental faculties to continue to link every and anything to the government. Dr. sharma or Benjamin need to urgently check you out for real!!!!!!!!!
You are a very STUPID person to make such comment which that does not pertain to the topic
May “Morihei Ueshiba” is from Antigua and therefore is making that comment based on his or her opinion of the island.
What are you talking about?
dno…..you guys take too long to moderate ppl’s comments…..some comments are posted right away….mine, they have to take forever!
yes i dno!
every eye will see and tongue shall tell that when rogues and vagabond fall apart just men will get their reward
i wonder if dem police and custom man used to protect mister and his dealings
it’s time the police in Antigua tell the truth. they know the people doing the crimes .
but is a inside job they must no
They are involved.
Antigua full of story of these murders keep on changing too much I tired of hearing pointless senarios on what happen. When the truth come out then inform the public. Lets those victims families have closure. Everyday Facebook have different evidence and still no convictions. Dominica need to send some hit men to Antigua back door then people will come forward.
Stop talking rubbish
I agree, the families do need closure, but there will not be any closure until the crime is solved.
why dont u come to antigua and be the hit men see if we dont deal with u
why dont u come to antigua and be the hit men yr self and see if we dont deal with u u
perfect setup, their colleagues from the force planted the drugs to cover their crime, just think of it where on earth you ever hear that drug dealers would leave so much drugs for police to find, the owner of the house must be investigated too he knows what went on there
So true. I think the owner of the house knew full well what was going to take place and when it would take place, so of course, it made itself scarce. No one would leave this amount of drugs unattended. I say “it” because we do not know if the owner was “he” or “she”. Sometimes females are deeper into the business than males. Anything is possible.
I BELIEVE THAT…. I NEVER BELIEVED HIS 24 H STORY
He was a DJ with the most popular if not most powerful sound system in DA. He did a lot of pro bono work too so of course he will have lots of friends in both high and low places. Apart from his alledged involvement he was a public figure.
tell them release the autopsy,we will find the criminals
The autopsy report will only show the cause of death it will not tell us who the murderers were.
this had to be a setup because if it was a drug related killing, they would never leave the cocaine behind.
The drugs were planted on the scene to make the killings appear to be drug related. I anticipate the day they find and prosecute the killers.
RIP
the killers could not find the drugs. it ws the police dogs who got it. stupessss
if the killer or killers were dogs then they would have sniffed it and taken it
yo pah tay tapaiy
u right
what did i told u all about the drugs being a set up all u to fast to judge …………they are dead could not speak for themself so lets just dirty their names careful people the ones who are suppose to protect us are the ones killing us
they had their drugs well hidden. the hit men couldnt find it. it was the police dogs who did. stupesss
Keep believing that theory.
Even the owner wasn’t there he still need to be investicate,it could be a set up.
Please read the article for this link in the Antiguan newspaper. Then figure it out.

Surprisingly Alwin was surrounded by senior law enforcement officers who were in charge of his security here. Now two Antiguan Police Officers are assisting.
What about custom officers who were also friends. Mi papa I am not a pastor, nor politician, nor police, president, commissioner and certainly not a deceitful lawyer and senior counsel. so I must ask the question that many people are afraid to ask- whet the heck did Alwin get all that money he had. At least bubbles was selling crabs. Instead of staying quiet ask the question so we can be honest with ourselves and our children.
You must read and understand what you read
So two police officers are being questioned and allu done convict them already?
SMFH 
it was all just a set up.
Not only was it a set up but I am learning that the drugs which were classified as class A cocaine, wan’t even real cocaine!
If the drugs were reportedly found close to the bodies, as the report indicated (antigua observer), then why did it take days for the police to reveal drugs were found?
This was indeed a huge set up…..abduct poor Alex, brutalize him, take him to the house, and shoot Alwin on site (who was the real target).
Well carried out plan…..only thing is that they chose the wrong friend of Alwin, since he wasn’t in any way associated to or with drugs or any illegal stuff…..Killers always overlook a minor detail, which leads to their capture.
God above, He is always always always good and just, even in these times when it hurts the most.
Why isn’t the Dominican Government intervening?….Americans and British look out for their people irrespective of how far in the world they are……Don’t we love our people???
Finally, I’m convinced that the police knows who the perpetrators of the crime are….phone logs, camera recordings etc are enough leads to get someone talking!
you are in denial.
Alwin was a very “workable” individual…we have all kinds for “friends”…do we stop and say fornicator, you not my friend; smoker, liar, you not my friend. I met Lawrence Robin through work and never knew who he was as I am not a jamrocker. One day my husband pointed out what Bullet does with my company. I told him a client from Club DVD…it was then that I pieced Mr Robin as DJ Bullet and the works. The individual I had been dealing with for months was such an easy going, workable individual…I enjoyed working with him and he was always on the positive side, and very business minded. I don’t condone drug use/abuse/pushing, but we all do wrong and our wrong cannot be the flag of our character, especially if that person has changed…let’s learn to love…Seulement Dieu peut nous juger (ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE US).
i told ya’ll is a corrupt set up from the beginning….
Whether or not there was a set up you will admit that people don’t just go around randomly torturing and executing people like that. We need to stop being hypocrites in Dominica. We all know that when you play with fire you get burnt.
i listened to the death announcement of this DJ…i must say dude had some interesting ‘friends’ in high places…#justsaying..
I observed that too. What a country we live in. It is amazing that so many of our politicians from both sides are close friends with a known drug dealer. WHat a shame
Most of the crimes in Antigua now are caused by those corrupt criminals called police officers. I hope those who commit such heinous crimes are locked up and the keys are thrown away.
you are so right but no offense the two victims are not cleared either having been involved in the heinous acting of destroying young Dominicans and Antiguans with their trade in crack cocaine… if i was in it you would say the same to… i am glad they are making progress with this matter since all these crimminals should be caught arrested castrated and the sent to jail… they are all criminals both the dead ones and the alive ones…
@ Right on track
Here you are judging the individuals….I just sincerely hope that you yourself isn’t in drugs or anything wrong, since all wrong is wrong…all sin is sin!
But then again, we the people who knew Alex know that he is in heaven, since he was never involved in anything illegal, so please stop condemning the individual and trying to tarnish his good name…let him rest in peace, and he will, irrespective of what you think or say….nb:- we often judge others and say things about them when we feel poorly about ourselves, and or are jealous of the person!
i pray that all those of you who wrongly judge this individual who was brutally and innocently beaten and then murdered to get to his friend, will be likewise judged…judge not, lest you be judged.
i
that not how it go if you do a crime and you had to investigate your self .would you charge you self?
