Armed gunmen free Venezuelan prisoners in St. Lucia

Egardo Boada Redriguez is one of the three escaped prisoners.

On Sunday August 8th, 2010 at about 4:50 pm three inmates escaped from the Bordelais Correctional Facility with assistance from three or four individuals who entered the compound through the south west perimeter of the facility.

As a result of this action three inmates are now on the run. These include: two Venezuelans and one Saint Lucian.

    I am reading this article with such disgust and distaste. How can mask men walk into a high secure facility and commandeer such an escape of prisoners. You have to ask yourself the question;’are the departments or heads of many of our infrastructure fit for purpose? It is with good intent that I am writing this piece. As a small Island, per capita we have an extremely high level of crime at all levels. In todays society there is a lack of fear, no self pride and a desire to have what was not justly owned. We need to recapture the essence of the saying ”Paradise Island”. Our leaders work relentlessly defaming each others character as oppose to realising that there is a problem that should be addressed and discussed urgently. A community is not about the homes, houses and bodies but about the mental state of everyone within that community. P.S. Watch this space.

    Thats why the police should shoot them on sight when they meet them at sea no court no escape no two foot monsters (lawyers) to defend them make the sea their burial ground .God is on the police side for the destruction of evil dowers nothing wrong in getting rid of those criminals you call that self defence because if they catch you they wont spear you so why take them alive.when you get involve in the drug trade you sign your death wrant and you must also write your will if you have any thing behind because that is a sure road to death.So i am giving the police orders as comander in chief shoot at sight and leave no evidence no question. you are the executioner of GOD for the good of the land of your birth. tell them mess with the cops in Trinidad.they will be dead at first glance.

    What’s wrong with the gallows today? Isn’t it time that we resume hanging? No hanging means more senseless crimes.
