The police in St. Maarten are investigating a bizarre case of crime which has left a baby dead in the middle of the public road on Tuesday night.
The police on that island have confirmed that the man is Dominican. He has been identified as Dalton Le Blanc.
His full name was not released because he has not been formally charged with any crime.
Reports indicate he snatched the infant from its home in an area called Middle Region, swinging the child recklessly and ultimately slamming the baby on the road.
The infant died instantly.
Media reports indicate the man’s rage began in a nearby night club where he crashed into several parked cars while exiting the parking lot. His strange behavior continued while driving on the road when he damaged several cars, walls and fences. When his car stalled, he abandoned it and stormed into a nearby house where he saw the baby and grabbed it.
The official police report said law enforcement were called to the scene of a break in at about 11:30 pm on Tuesday. Upon arrival they were told the suspect had fled the scene. They heard a loud explosion and upon investigation, saw that a vehicle had struck and destroyed a concrete wall. They said they saw the suspect with the baby who was showing no sign of life.
He was subdued and the baby was pronounced dead, according to the police.
DNO was reliably informed that the suspect started acting in a strange manner at his job earlier in the day and was sent home.
Whats wrong with all of you people talking about the man’s place of residence. It don’t matter where the man is from he is an African man. And stop knocking yourselves out about his background like your trying to throw blame. Dominica and St. Maarten are both beautiful islands with Dominica having the less vain and most humble people I have ever met. Don’t give both islands a bad look with your prejudices. Pure ignorance. If the man killed a child then investigate and do your jobs thoroughly and to the best of your ability he must be placed on exile or lynched for his crime one out of two options available. Stop butchering people because of where they are from, demons exist everywhere, and based on peoples sin, people are possessed and do radical things. Some talk but don’t really walk.
The conscience is a bad man worst enemy and if he has history in beating women, then he will be capable of worst when his conscience is awaken.
Live, Love, Laugh and play healthy life styles for the mind. My condolences to the families that are suffering
such a tragic incident. My heart goes out to the family who has lost such a precious gift. I too am a mother of a newborn and I can only imagine what these parents are going through…the incident just doesn’t seem random to me after reading that the father of the baby and the accused worked for the same company. There are driving factors behind this act, in my opinion, based on this statement. I really hope that this family finds peace.
I pray for you, this man definitely had a problem and it was ignored by his job and people at the club.
Innocent child!
To the publishers and journalists of DNO you guys need to do better in getting the story straight and the right details before you publish your stories. Too many times we get information that is inaccurate or just absurd. The result of poor journalism… the guy is a St. Maartener with Dominican parentage you quickly claim the murder and label it as if it were a Dominican who was raised here then went to live in St. Maarten and did the crime. Attracting a vast reading audience isn’t the only thing that matters… STOP GIVING DOMINICANS A BAD NAME choose your titles properly and stop providing the people with misconstrued information.
ADMIN: We go with the official police report. The police said he is from Dominica. This is a line from the police report which we have in out possession ” The Police Central Dispatch was informed of the situation and the Paramedics were immediately sent to treat the infant who was already not showing any sign of life. The suspect with initials D. Le B. from the island of Dominica (26) was arrested on the scene and taken to the police department in Philipsburg.”
DNO ignore this person. The man may have been born on St Martin, but he was very much Dominican. Don’t bother disown him now. He hung out with Dominicans mostly and if you asked him where he was from he always said Mahaut-St Martin. He was also a woman beater.
DNO pay no mind to this damn fool let him speak for himself, he is not on the rest of us behalf
You should know by now that regardless to where a person was born that person is automatically a Dominican because of their parents. That said, although these children are considered Dominicans, when they travel to Dominica they are still given time to stay. All-in-all, that baby was innocent, regardless to what the circumstances that baby should not be dead. And yes, the killer is a Dominican.
The guy was born in Dominica of Dominican parents,he went to school in Massacre. He migrated to St Maarten as an adult.
He is originally from Mahaut (hope I spelled it correctly) Dominica. He has resided in St Maarten, like many Dominicans for years. Also note that SXM has a large Dominican population, and they are NOT known for violent crime.
they already got the news how we wanted it u big nutcracker
come on people . why would some of u in a time like this insult someone whom u know nothing about. all these foolish and insulting comments should not be posted. even if the lady knew the man that changes nothing. may that family find strength to go from this ordeal without anyone loosing their sanity .this is nothing more than demonic force taking hold of that man. call it mental breakdown if u want but its sad that this happened. may Gods help and comfort keep that woman and her family and its also sad for the family of that young man
This is a very unique but extremely sad situation. What’s making it even worst are the comments being posted. Most of you are merely speculating at what happened to lead to such a heinous and ridiculous act by a man. We do not know. An innocent baby is dead his mother and other family members are left torn and shattered in the wake of all that has happened. While we may all want to administer what we think may be a just punishment for this act, we are not God. I am a mother of two and wonder everyday how anyone could hurt children no matter the age so yes i understand the outrage and cries for “an eye for an eye” But instead take time out to call on Jesus and pray for the mother whose life has just been tragically changed by what she is going through, pray for peace and comfort for her at this trying time.
Let God be the judge in this case no sin goes unpunished “NONE”
My heartfelt condolences to the family of the young Mark Reid Jr. may God extend His hands of mercy to you and wrap you in His essence of comfort and may you be granted the peace that passeth all understanding that will keep your heart and mind through Christ Jesus. Take comfort in knowing that God don’t give us more than we can bear.
Dominicans again! Can someone please leave Dominicans in Dominica. Don’t give them any opportunities to go anywhere. Whereever they go they create problems. They seem to be cavemen, no class whatsoever.
This is a very insulting thing to say about Dominicans. Everywhere has its own. You can’t label an entire nation because of the action of a few.
Everyone has a mind of their own and may choose to do right or wrong.
There are other Dominicans living abroad who do very well for themselves and don’t get tangled in any illegal mess.
That is a very unfair statement and shows poor judgment by you.
I am a St Maartener, There are thousands of Dominicans living in SXM, and they are not known as being violent criminals. In every race, group, country, creed, religion you will find “bad” people, it is not a Dominican thing.
Anonymous, I am not a judger of persons, in this case however, I would like to advise you. You shouldn’t judge Dominicans, you are showing the world who you as a person really are. I am sure that Dominicans aren’t the only people you speak ill of, it’s called a characteristic of prejudice, racist, and a judgemental character. I will pray for you that you are delivered from your own stones you casting. Blessings to you and your family.
DNO he is not a dominican he was born in St. Maarten
Quite a few DA guys have lost their minds in SXM…calypsonian, reporter, guard etc. Can’t take the stress over there?
DNO, you cannot think that you are making sense by releasing initials D Le B. Everyone will at least guess the surname. smh
i bet if you ask this guy what harpened he will simply shake his head *saying he dont no*and i am almost certain that he doesnt know.
People!People!People!.be careful when you’ll are just letting out words in a hast.
I worked for that company in St.Marteen,and believe me,it’s not easy working for that company,you got to be strong will to work in there.
As a matter of fact,we would be under pressure from the local islanders and at the work place.
In some cases we would even get death threats.
Don’t get me wrong,that’s not an excuss for what he did.Terrible is to light a word to describe his action.
However,in some cases we got to with hold judgement,and sometimes further,even hold our peace,and just pray to GOD above.
God gave to us two holes on our heads,one on the left and one on the right,which we call our ears.
And HE gave us one hole only ,beneath our nose,which we call our mouth.
With that said,let’s be reminded that none of us holds tomorrow,our lives are not in our hands,and it can wind up going in some crazy direction that was never fore seen.
(Be not rash with thy mouth,and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before GOD:for GOD is in heaven,and thou upon earth;therefore let thy words be few.) Eccl.5:2
And so,GOD knows all,sees all,and hears all,HE does not need twelve jurors to heip HIM sought it out.HE alone knows the guy’s heart,and so I’ll leave it up to HIM,HE will deal with the matter.
When your neighdor house is on fire,just keep wetting yours..
And by the way,I do not know the accused.
However, I extend my condolences to the family and friends of the little one.And prays on behalf of all concerned.
the security guard company’s in st maarten are infamous for hiring only foreign workers, usually Guyanese, Dominican and Jamaican. They pay them below the minimum wage and work them like dogs. This is not hearsay, in the SXM papers there are various court cases right now against these security firms. But it’s not just one security firm, several are in the middle of battles against their employees right now for payment
Something is not adding up. The man was insane at the moment. Based on the comments made by those who know him – he must have been drugged or demon possessed to execute such as offensive act. May God guide the both families.
DNO I think your headline should read Dominican-heritage not Dominican. From news reports in St. Martin he was born and bred on that island and holds a Dutch passport. Please check into that. Thanks
He went berserk. This is some rage and insanity. Something radical went wrong with him, in his life to have caused this. No one in their right mind would have done such a thing. What could have enticed him to do this?
The St. Maarten police authorities will deal with this situation. He will surely be given a medical examination and a psychiatric evaluation to determine his frame of mind and what caused him to commit this atrocity against the baby and her mother and other damages.
Consider when he calms down be it by being given barbiturates (which I expect) and he realizes what he did, he will be remorseful. He might have to be placed under suicide watch.
Recently I heard on the U.S. Catholic Radio, the familiar quote, “There but for the grace of God go I” that, all of us are capable of doing anything. We are human beings. The human mind could give way in a wink of an eye over problems. They undergo anxiety, stress and pressure which they are not able to control. Why do some people go insane and others do not? Only God knows. If not the same, we never know what situation we will find ourselves in.
We must pray for the baby’s mother who, at this moment is obviously inconsolable. Also for his family who are grieving at what he did. His actions will also reflect on them which they will obviously take personally. May God cover them with his mantle of love and consolation.
Consider too, God who knows hearts and minds, who sees their condition and what is occurring in our life is merciful. As Our Lord taught us: Luke 6:36 – “Be merciful as your heavenly Father is.”
To some people on here.
If you have forgiven the assailant and praying for all involved, then God bless you exceedingly.
If you are set on condemning the assailant and thinking that an eye for an eye is better, then you are a ‘friend of the world’… What does the bible say about friends of the world?
Let law and justice unfold according to Gods will and don’t speak of or try to influence or encourage otherwise
For humans, such a crime is seemingly unforgivable. When I heard this news this morning I was so moved and angry at him. Then, the spirit of anger quickly left. It is one of the privileges of being a Christian.
I read most of the comments on here and it is appalling how negative persons can be and how unforgiving this world is. To you, there may be absolutely no justification for his actions and being human, you have every right to be angry. BUT, you should take some time to also think that the assailants parents may have lost their son too? why not show compassion both ways.
Also, If you want to know why this happened, just remember to ask God when you are giving an account of yourself on judgement day.
My prayers go up to heaven for the people involved and also for you.
Mothers and fathers of Dominica, your children–no matter if they have reached adulthood–they need your intercessory prayer!
God will protect the little children, for He knows that they know nothing about themselves–perhaps that man is responsible for what he did to that baby; perhaps not, only God knows and He alone will deal with the matter.
Our children, from the time they reach 13 years old, boy or girl, that is the time they begin to encounter the “spiritual warfare” of Life; they are not yet ready to face that war of their minds–and so, as their parents we need to be on our p’s and q’s before our God of Holiness on their behalf. We have to get rid of our indifferences towards our children–especially our teenagers and young adults.
What I am saying is that our children needs our intercession–prayers to God on their behalf. This means that we ought to be constantly paying attention to their attitude and conducts; to notice where they are at fault; and to bring their petitions, of existence, to God on their behalf; until God has trained them, by faith, to speak their problems to Him and to receive them directly. We need to let our children know that God wants a personal relationship with them–we are not helping by causing them to embrace the Sunday morning thing–where all the learn about is “religion”–the man–made rules and laws.
As adults we are too insensitive as far as our children are concerned, especially when they reach their teenage years. And so, the more they notice our unresponsive attitude towards them they further away they go from us.
Issues of Life build up in their minds, they do no know how to deal with those issues; they think that they have no one who will listen to them; and so they keep that mess of existence building up in their mind untill it boils over–an explosion that causes the destruction and death of everyone in their path.
Whether this man, is a young person or a mature adult, it is quite obvious that he could not deal with the troubles of his mind; and like a time-bomb,the minute approached zero seconds and he exploded–an explosion that would bring everything in its path down with him.
And so, Lord Jesus, I pray that You will give Your Rest to the mother–or parents–of that baby as You do what You have do with that man who has caused her/them such anguish. Amen!
I’m not gonna judge this man because i doe think he was in his normal state this evening there when that happen because a normal person would not do this crime lord jesus lay your hands on this man.
My heartfelt to th bady’s family.I dont comdone what he did but I feel bad for this young man because if they are saying he good person he went off and snapped.
The second murder in Middle Region within a few days, live sacrifices for lent
I gave you thumbs up. You meant no harm at what you stated.
I will say, life’s trials and tribulations, not being able to cope with them be it that we may have caused it or not and the result of same, trying to cope without faith, trust and hope in God and not reverting to him in times of trouble. May God help us.
people in sxm are in shock. it was a psychotic break down, but that doesn’t mean he’ll get any sympathy here. To the gossip mongers, there was NO relationship between the lady, and the gentleman LeBlanc. He randomly walked into her house. So people want to make up fantasies, because it’s difficult to believe a native son would do something like this. The woman has just lost her baby, don’t slander her online with rumours when it’s all hearsay.

R i p baby and may god guide and change this man
May God bring Comfort and strength to the bereaved family. Whatever went into D’s head to do something like that only God knows. May God help him. He really needs Jesus.
Black ppl plz think n look first before u all open u all mouth and chat shit first if this dominica guy had the intention to kill the baby would he take the baby bag now get that jamaican gurl n ask her to speak the truth like who call the cops why the cops don’t speak the truth ,when the man saw them coming he try to put the child down to run the child might have drop to hard so all the dum comment should stop about ppl begging in there country if it wasn’t for the same ppl st marteen /sxm would sink so stop u all funny talking n get rule cuz u all just waiting to here bad thing for u all to Gossip but god don’t like gossiping n no man owns no country so let god jugde his creation .
some people just to wicked in dominica
so so sad,
the talk was,she was with the suspect,she told him she is pregnunt,he promise to take care of her and the onborn child at that time,and during that time he took care of the lady,his co-worker,little that he knew,she was with another co-worker,after child born,she found out it was not his,she told him ,and moved out,and the rest,we all know what happend,
This woman just had a COMPLETE stranger, randomly walk into her home in the middleof a psychotic episode, and viciously murdered her child. SHE DID NOT KNOW HIM! YES I AM IN ST MAARTEN, this woman has had enough, she doesn’t need you insinuating or making up lies about her. There was NO relationship. The individual Le Blanc began to act strange at work at Sheriff security. The baby’s name is MARK REID JR! How could she be fooling him into believing anything? I guess the “black mouth caribbean dog” exists in every island. Google the story from sxm if you want facts, don’t slander some stranger THAT YOU DON’T KNOW, who JUST lost her child http://sxmgovernment.com/2013/04/03/photo-correction-and-expressing-our-condolences-to-the-family-of-the-deceased-infant-hope-government-can-do-the-same/
Get your facts straight, there are a lot of st maarten blogs with the truth
This part of the story ‘appears’ believable. The poor baby and mother. The baby is in God’s care. It is no easy matter for the mother. May God give the mother strength to withstand the loss of her baby in such a manner and the grief she is presently undergoing.
There is usually more than one side to a story. I will not disown what you stated for I do not know the entire story. Until we hear the woman’s side, others as I must remain neutral.
Sauve you are SICK person. How can you make up such a lie? The woman don’t know the man, what kind of disturbing lie is that? You all can sink as low as you want, you all can make him out to whiter than snow, but if I have to testify on his past I will. The man does have a violent streak to him contrary to the nice boy picture some want to paint, and you come here and tarnish and already hurting innocent woman’s character? Truth is I have lived and worked on St Martin for over 21 years, and nothing Dominicans are accused of doing shocks me anymore. Every crime just gets more brutal and it’s always the same defense coming from people like you.
Did you read the news or should I ask can you read?
This is totally unbelievable, DNO something is missing in that info, someone in their right frame of mind wouldn’t conceive the idea do something like that. I think that some of the middle-east countries laws concerning capital punishment should be enforced in the region to let some people think twice before committing such heinous crimes. RIP lil baby and my condolences to the family and friends.
Its crazy some of the comments I find myself reading,I’m from mahaut where D is from and though I’ll admit my first reaction is “kill him” I know there’s more to this than meets the eye.my suggestion would be to do a blood test,urinal,fecal test even on him and have this tested overseas,I’m almost certain this guy has some high level of hallucinogenic drug in his system,his actions leading up to the attack on the baby all but says this.My most heart felt condolences going out to the family of this poor innocent child. Jah know this baby didn’t deserve that level of treatment.and yah all black people have roots from Africa so all the most likely “black” people that saying send Dominicans to Africa then sit and shut your mouth and type things that make sense not things that makes people want to vomit.stop the stupid comments!
st.martin news says the mother was home alone with her son so she ran to get help. The man was born and raised in SXM, but his parents are Dominicans. He has a child in DR to. His coworkers are saying that he is a quiet and hard working man. He just went off just like that? Rip precious baby. Alas that hurting me!
He was born in Dominica.

Read for yourselves people
Only a possessed person would do such thing. My condolences to the family
how sad for the baby’s family
Body slam him too!!
i know mister, wii
Oh my God, this is total insanity
What they give mister in that club to send him lokko? This man has a son as well and by all means shows off his admiration to his kid. It’s hard to believe that in his right mind he would do that to someone else’s child. This is a huge eye opener that NONE of us are safe from the perills of evil. It is heartbreaking that this baby had to go in such a tragic way. I pray that for all involved that the police conduct their investigations PROPERLY. They should get blood work on this guy to find out what’s in his system. There is also alot missing from this story. I just pray that true justice will be served for all involved.
No surprise. Another loser Dominican male.
the man was maybe experiencing a mental break down. It started from since he was at work. Mental break downs can happen to ANYONE. please learn the full story before you make such strong statements. #justsaying
you are the first losser
I am a child reading this..a baby myself..and this is sooo sad….What is this world getting into!!…as i get older the world becomes more and more cruel….i just cannot understand it…
Anyways i hope that family finds comfort and may the Good Lord help them deeply!
WHY didnt he just drive off a CLIFF…..it would have been better for him and everyone…..now he faces charges of Manslaughter and an INSURANCE pay out………..foolish DUMBINICAN….TYPICAL….
Honestly — some of you Dominicans just comment for commenting sake.
you just made yourslef look like the “foolish DUMBINICAN”
I pray for Gods blessings and guidance over the baby’s parents and family, and also the young man, i believe he needs, psychiatric, psychological and spiritual help. i cant say i know how they feel but as a father i try to imagine what it would be like to loose my baby boy and i cant stand the thought.
GODS GUIDANCE AND BLESSINGS TO ALL
Dominicans are very strange people. If this were someone from another place who did this, there would be no water to wash them, no mental illness, drug excuses. He would have been executed already, however a Dominican murders an innocent baby before a pleading mother and they give thumbs down to those who call it as it is, or ask for him to be severely punished. He has so many apologists, friends and therapists on his defense. Why people? If this were your family member would you want anyone to defend the criminal?
Lucian on SXM, its not only Dominicans commenting on this site so you need to ease up, and Dominicans are fair and loving people in spite of what you may think. Justice is for all.
I know D for a very long time, an the D I know wouldn’t hurt a fly. Something was wrong with him cuz he got a child of his own an love him to death.
He should get the death penalty that low life
They need to bring back the Death penalty. Especially in DA when it was know that they would be hung for such disgusting crimes there was a lot less murders happening. And I pray that the drug bath salt did not make it to the islands, because its worse the cocaine or heroin. I work with addicts, and this sounds like he took something that he couldn’t handle. So so sad
Send him back to Dominica to face our justice system
What justice system? We have justice system? so he can walk on the road within 5 years or be acquitted by reason of mental defect? Let him stay there and be punished to fullest extent of the law
whoever that man is, doh send him to Dominica for me please. do what ever allu want with him. what was really wrong with that man? even if ur drunk, u wont cause all that problems and then run into a house, snatch a baby and kill her/him. he must be possess.
we need to realize the info on DNO is incomplete hence the reason for no name or a pic.I do sympathise with the family for their lost. I understood it started at the home the young man was breaking everthing, the neighbours called the cops several times,they never came. That was when the young man left in his vehicle and continued on his path.Had the police answered to call could have been avoided. A normal person would not act that way, this sounds to me that this young man was troubled. I dont drugs was involved, if we read the comment of a close friend on the site, even he realized he was not himself.This guy snapped, lets not to quick to and wait for more information. we are humans.
But what is tat nah?
OMG I feel so sorry for that poor baby and his/her parents………. So sad
the baby was not poor, he was innocent.
What is this world coming to. This was a nightmare for this baby’s mother this is sad. This guy had some find of drug or maybe he snapped.
DNO I need more information, this simply does not make sense. My deepest condolences to the family. As a mother I am truly heart broken. What could possess a human being to do something at nature? RIP lil baby….you did not deserve to die. Keep flying on the wings on angel and watch over mommy.
i know th de baby did not sopouse to die na
sorry about ur loss to the baby parents
what doesn,t make sense
Sorrr I pressed the wrong icon…I meant to like your comment…Totally agree with you…
i have a baby girl only 2 months old reading this made me leave the pc and hug my angel i cant imagine what the family of this baby is going through, a baby is innocent and that child just did not deserve to die like that… this man does not deserve to live out the rest of his life in prison. he deserves to have his life taken away for taking away such an innocent one, in such a horrible way. him going “beserk,” jumbie, drugs, demons, there is just no excuse.. and to the ppl that want to feel sorry for him, just imagine if that was your kid he swung and slammed into the street..
life time or they should kill him on de spot
When guys like him does abitrary things in their lives and it fall back on them and keep bothering them, they will do anything
My deepest sympathy goes out to the family members
What is your point, what do you mean?
i totally agree wit u…….seriously wen he go jail is on ppl tax money he going and live and gt big…..i wil neva snd him jail
This man is from the island of Dominica and he is a murderer there is no excuse for his actions. If he was under the infulence of drugs or was drunk or possessed -you have a choice not to get involved with things like that -there is no justification for his actions -I wonder how different some of these postings would be if the baby had been from your island and the man had been a foreigner.
your right
if you listen the the talk show or the ppl, on the road,they saying all dominican ppl are so,from men are thieves and the woman are home wreckers,and now baby killers,not nice at all
@ El Chamo….
REALLLLLLY???
That’s your personal opinion. Every country has home-wreckers, thieves and murderers etc. You have no point and it is clear that you are influenced and driven by what you hear (weak mentality). Just like every other country MY COUNTRY Dominica has lovely people, so stop making it sound like all Dominicans are bad people.
I just cannot understand wht is goin in the mine of our people.
they doe kill dat yet???????????????????. if it was me dat find him in dat bush, he doe make it out alive. trust me. forgive? let god forgive me instead. I killing dat straight. I sori. omg r.i.p baby.
As a mother of a little one I feel so sad hearing this story. Just picturing the poor helpless little one brought tears to my eyes. I can’t imagine what the mother and other family of this child must be going through. I pray that God grant them strength through this ordeal. The baby is an innocent and I trust that he or she is seated next to God in heaven this day. Again, may God guide, protect and strengthen the family of the baby.
Alas i am hurting soooooooo bad for this baby
i feel sorry for the child parents.dominicans spoiling their water everywhere
A lil baby so nice ! hE has plenty guttz to do that! he is obviously demon possessed
I meant to like this comment. Sometimes I press the wrong thing.
That man was probably on Bath Salts
mister paro man? how can somebody even think of something like that? my god help us people going loco? mind me!
no amount of punishment can bring back that poot ladies child,my heart akes for her.she can only find comfort in the peace from God Almighty
spell check– poor aches
thats just unbelievable,i pray that God grants the family strenght and courage to go through this tragic diturbance.
DNO we are not sure if he was related to the family of that baby by any chance. I hope they the run test of mister before they try to conclude is mad he mad. Mad man doe hide in bush when they commit crimes. Hang him in the same spot he kill the person child. Hang him by his balls I say.
No he is not related to them
Hello Everyone;
I read all the comments. D and I have been friends for a while now. I am very sadden to have heard of this incident. My heart goes out to the family and friends of this baby. I cant imagine the pain that you all are facing. Something must have happened to cause D to have done this act! I spoke to him not very long ago and I noticed he was not himself but I gave him the benefit of the doubt and didnt pry into his life because often times he would tel me to wait until he comes to me.
Now hearing this makes me wonder did I really do my duty as a friend. I am very moved by this. I have no answers but I hope he will tell me what went on before all of this. The most automatic response to this would probably be “KILL HIM”. I don’t condone his act….but at the same time want to sound the alarm that even the most terrible sinner, God forgives!
I will continue to pray for him.
Dominican friend living in Sxm
@ His close friend, I feel your pain because I have been there myself. Sometimes you just feel your friend is not himself / herself but at the same time you don’t want them to feel you trying to get into their personal life and as a result, we fall short of sometimes saving them from real trouble as true friends usually do. However, we just learn through experiences like these. I wish people would be a little slower to condemn people they don’t even know or the circumstances that led to such brutality. All we can do is pray for those left to mourn and the young man as well. Be strong!
I do not care what problems he had, all i hear is that an innocent child is dead.
We have to help each other as true friends.Helping is like prevention is better than cure.someone said they ask to call for the police from the very start of this problem at the club,response was no let us see what his going to do.This could have been prevented.faith without action.
Look here..” CLOSE FRIEND” clearly while you are disgusted with his actions, you will want to plead for mercy on him. If he so mad why didn’t hang his black arse, or jump in the sea? He slam the innocent baby on the road and then hid in bushes, what else you want to know? I don’t give a darn if he pulled a Jesus in the past and walked on water, he should be getting blows all now. Feel how you want but don’t you dare come here and ask people to have sympathy for a mal boowoe. He damn well knew what he did! It’s the same bs that got that other child killer running her trap on facebook to this day. Every time wicked people do their act is always a syndrome, devil or some excuse, chah man
People like you never seize to amaze me.
You are indeed very ‘brave’ to swear and call Jesus’s name at the same time.
Be careful my dear. There is power in that name that you don’t seem to comprehend.
His close friend… you know we have to look for signs and actions in members of our family and friends… don’t think you are digging into their business when you notice they behave unusual..that is what friends are for…you notice something.. seek help for that person… check their comments on facebook, talk to their family…. and people lets not judge this young man, his actions are heart breaking,, the mother is in sorrow for her baby.. but a normal person cannot do something like that. That man needs help. he snapped..his friends should do a bit more, he said he noticed he was not himself, people lets not condem him..lets pray for the grieving mother and for this young men… the devil is looking for young people we have to pary hard not to be tempted and pray hard for him not to win our souls and those of our friends and family.
Yes my dear pray for him,god forgives.I will not judge him,for I do not know what cause him to do what he did.Lets keep praying for each other.
Sounds like a drug-induced dementia and rage.
My condolences to the family of the baby.
Are you a scientist?
Some one suggested “bath salts”, ever heard of this drug?
This reaps at the very core of my heart. I hope he is being tortured right now in the most brutal way!!
That is not the answer,what are we biulding in our young peoples mind,when they read comments like this.You are sending someone to kill again.Lets have mercy for others.Even if he did,that don’t give you the right to kill also.Our tongue is the bigest killer.
Oh please hush Kalinnago, no it’s hypochrites like you who are always making excuses and thumping bible quotes in peoples faces that cause young people to go astray. What the hell you know about this man? I can tell you he was very abusive to a woman from the Dominican Republic he lived with at one point in time. It’s Dominicans like us who had to rescue the woman from him. she even lived with a Dominican from the Mero for a while because he wouldn’t let her back in her own apartment. He should be hanged!!! the baby was a victim of opportunity, but not for a second do I doubt he would have killed anybody in his path that night. Your tongue kalinnago is the biggest killer because you speak on things you have no clue of. You are all over the place ranting on every comment, he should be hung by his damn balls. People acting like he was some model citizen, by the way he was at his favourite whorehouse so maybe he was mad they chop his money and he took his rage out on the vehicles in the parking lot when he was thrown out for acting up. Some people have two sides, some have six, and there are many Dominicans here on St Martin committing very brutal crimes daily, and that’s just the reality.
This is really a very sad story. My heart goes to the child’s mother. If this guy was in the club maybe he took some kind of drug or someone put something in his drink thats why he wne off. Something triggered that kind of behavor.
he went to the club already disturbed. his behavior was noticed from monday, but nothing was done to avoid this.
i was feeling sorry for him till he run and hide in the bushes.he damn well know what he was doing.
where did you get your news from.be sure of what you are saying before you condemn him.he was never in the bushes
u think he’s going to make it to the courthouse in SXM?
I pray that TRUE justice will be done.
Dominican go all over the world an up people’s country, but we are here crying down we have Chinese/Haitia/DominicanRepublic in Dominica.
Deport all these Dominican trouble makers back to Africa
Who say Africa want dem?
Send them home to Dominica -Africa does not need them -they are born and breed in Dominicas you keep them.
@IPO what a ridiculous comment to such a serious situation..do you possess any sense..idiot
I make a lot of sense, if they don’t want to go Afrtica, deport these bloody idiots to the Middle East.
If you don’t behave yorself, I will put you on the African Boat you know…so be quiet
you are so right about that. we go al over the world in other peoples country and make a good and bad name and there we are crying down other nationality from coming, but how many of the chinese we hear committing crime in our country, compare to dominicans. there names all over, doing something illigal and giving we dominicans a bad name. this guye on another note needs to be swing from a helicopter and just drop him of in the same fashion as the baby, period. no enough jail sentence will bring back the babay and the pain the parents are going through. If he so go bunckers why did he not drive his van over a precipise?
No precipise in sxm
why Africa. All over the world my dear have situations like these.Stand firm as a dominican and pray for him as he is also a child of god.
This story doesn’t make any sense to me yet.you forcibly entered into someones house, took their baby and did that!! chupss… now he’s “suffering from mental breakdown”!! NONSENSE!!….Do the crime…pay the time!! he deserves to be punished for what he did!…NO CONSIDERATION… R.I.P ANGEL
Since he could run in the bushes and hide, he knows fully well what he was doing. The bad thing about this situation is his lawyer will claim he is mentally ill. A phycological test will be taken and that will taken into consideration. He will get a slap on the wrist and be free. Sorry our tax money have to be spent on people like him.
do u really think he will be freed that need to hang
lord guide the family of this baby ……….. n just kill that man he dont deserve to live . no amount of drugs can make you kill an innocent babby . like that
The lord will disagree to you on this one.Two killings will not make it right.
This is so difficult… I can not even begin to imagine that family’s grief! May God intervene and comfort your hearts. I heart mourns with yours
boy whateva it was that was on him, he was smart enough in all that to run hide in the bushes; he got back his senses one time
life without parole is not for him – there is a better and instant punishment for him
O Lord, Are you not God in heaven? You rule over all the kingdoms of the nations. In your hand are power and might, so that none is able to withstand you. May this innocent child’s soul rest in perfect peace… This is a crazy situation!!
Omg this is so sad. I feel sick inside. So sorry for the family/poor precious child.
rest in peace
baby MARK REID jR
words cannot express how am feeling right now hope he gets whats comeing 2 hem rip baby
mad? and you know to run off into bushes? mad? and you can recognize the police but you couldn’t recognize a BABY?
well well send him life time prison he his not mand.
St. Maarten does not ave life imprisionment.
lord god almighty father i pray for the man and the family of the infant . something went wrong with that man while in the bar or club where ever he was and it was not good the french have a saying the little man in the bottle he control many so sorry to hear a story like that
Dats real madness
WTF!!!!!!!! this man needs to be castrated!! u just coming in them people house and grab their baby and kill the innocent child like that!!!!no no no!! my prayers are with the family of this baby!!what has the world come to now????
Mr. was on some serious drug what i cannot understand is how the hell did he come into a house take a person baby n go where are the parents??
thats the same question am asking where were this child parent to defend him or her. RIP baby.
at eleven at night with a new born baby, his mother was probably asleep. how could she expect some man to wander in from a brothel. AND IT IS A BROTHEL. Defiance is known for being a shady establishment. Those idiot men, like to go to whore houses like defiance and eat and drink like its there mother’s kitchen. But I think it’s somehow sick that you two individuals are asking where the mother was, like she was somehow responsible. Where were you two at eleven last night? Probably deep, asleep in bed. BOTH MOTHER AND CHILD WERE SAFELY IN THERE HOME AT MIDNIGHT, WHEN THE BRUTAL ASSAULT OCCURED
Honestly, i give up now!! whyyyyyy!
Hang him
Omg so sad, r.I.p lil angel and prayes go out to his/ her family.
Rip to that innocent baby mr. must be on some deadly drugs. how the hell did he just comes into a house take a baby and go where are the parents????
That man may have taken a beserk drug!!~!!
Alas i feel for the family of that child, sad news… still wondering how he manage to enter the house and snatch the baby without resistance from the baby family? Whatever am still very sad!!!
Sleeping
WTF!
Did this guy take Bath Salt. Must have been on some kind of drug – maybe he got itat the club.
One drug that could stimulate that type of behavior is Ba’ath Salt and I won’t be surprise that this drugs is in motion in St Marteen
yes make excuse for him! Rest in peace lil baby, you didn’t even get the chance to live your life.
May be more than drugs
… a little bit of evil mixed in.
so far only one person make some sense,
Anonymous
yes its more than that,and his friend should elaborate more,he was seeing the lady,who was his colleague,at the sec,company,she too was seeing a nother partner in the firm,she was pregnunt,he told her he would take care of her and the baby,did his share until she told him that the child is not his,and walk out and leave him,well the rest you allready read from dno,
Ei tay ka fou…. he went off
i’m feeling so sad right now, god guide and protect the family of the bady . help them get through this difficult time
Dats so sad.
please don’t deport him to Dominica! send him to jail for life in St. Martin.
I agree to this..leave him in sxm where he will get treated like the evil soul he is …Dominica prison is like a 4star hotel for criminals. And my condolences to the family, may god lay his healing hands on yul.
So wat do u think Sxm is? It way better Dan DA own
St. Maarten prison is a hotel.
You mean give him the death penalty!!!
That story missing something….it does not make sense to me…Am I the only one? Yet condolenses to the child’s friends and relatives.
Something like what? Live footage of the crime? The name of the guy? Names are not published until the person is charged.
What is missing? Please share your thoughts.
Did he know the family of the child? Was this a random act? Where were family members? Was he known to be insane? This is so bizarre…some part to the story is missing. I am not a journalist but have a decent understanding of English and writing…that’s my area of study so this account of things does not make sense to me…
I live in SXM, and unfortunately nothing is missing. To someone having a mental break down, nothing makes since. In this case Baby Mark lost his life.
At Something’s missing, I feel the same too. I wish they had told us a little more about the nearby house he stormed into and the baby that he grabbed, ran away with, and slammed to death on the road. Was the house he stormed into belong to his wife / girlfriend, friend, or a stranger? Was the child killed his child, his friend’s child, or a child he did not know at all? Was the mother of the child killed a Dominican as well? Anyway that is very sad indeed and may all receive special grace to go through this one
But you must realize these things take time. The incident occurred last night and it will take days even weeks for investigators to put the pieces together. You cannot expect something of that magnitude to take place and then within hours you have all the info.
I am sure the story will be updated as the days go by. So just chill….you get info of the incident and work with what you got.
Sxm hav the same story.
As I see it, and others, please realized this happen close to midnight. Investigations are still going on. From what we know he went off in a whore house from there he drove out from the parking lot caused a lot of damages to other people property. When his car breakdown he was on foot that is when he forcefully entered the house. As the investigation progresses updates will be given. It is a sad day here in St. Maarten.
So u NEED an explanation for a man swining a baby and slamming the child to the ground????reallyyy????I do not not care whats missing thats just gruesome and i hop e he gets punished to fullest extent of the law. Cold heartless bastard!
read the comment i made with anonymous,the jam lady and the fella had a relation ship,and she was with another colleague who was from j/ca,
This guy needs to be behind bars until the case is tried and then for the rest of his life he spends it in a maximum prison. What did this infant do to deserve what he did to her/him?
.
Jumbie that on mister to do a thing like that.. THAT IS NOT NORMAL…
I totally agree. Not normal is joke. Besides alcohol and on some drug, this is definitely demon possession as well!!!!
May this child rest in peace. And to the suspect seek God for He alone can change your heart and life. A tragedy on so many levels.
W.T.F
WTF? Sigh life of an innocent taken..
R.I.P.
Hmmm seems like he was on bath salt,this is real sad.To the family we are all shedding tears with you.
But that evil is that nah!! And is not even his baby nuh!!!! But I cannot understand that!!!!
oh oh, sounds like possession of evil spirit on the brother, Lord have mercy. I hope that he has come to realization and at least give and explanation and repent so that there will be some form of closure to the victims family, so sad to hear of these kind of incidents, Let’s just keep praying for each other world wide as brothers and sisters.
obviously he isn’t well…
Oh my gosh! So evil. I have a baby and I am tearing up here reading this. Can you imagine someone just grabbing your baby out of the blue and murdering him? I can only offer prayers to the family.
Hmmm…Drugs? Obeah? Woman stress? All of the above?
ah ah ah ah ah; poor sweet iinocent baby; too sad; heartbreaking; sleep angel sleep: tears
Lord have mercy. Help that family find peace. This man needs prayers.
