Police in the French island of Guadeloupe have made no arrests in the shooting death of a Dominican last Thursday.
The dead man has been identified as James Lazare, also known as KashaKou, from Scotts Head.
A source close to the matter told Dominica News Online that Lazare was shot by two men in what appeared to be a robbery attempt outside his home in Vieux-Bourg Abymes.
Reports indicate the two men are probably from the neighbouring community of La Croix.
The source told DNO that Lazare was found by his wife after hearing a loud explosion outside their home. It is reported that it took a long time for the ambulance to arrive on the scene and by the time it did, Lazare was already dead.
The source said Lazare was not supposed to be in Guadeloupe since a French website, detailing police action, revealed that he had been deported to Dominica last year.
Lazare’s body is still awaiting an autopsy and according to the source efforts are being made to bring it to Dominica for burial.
@ DNO… to correct ur information since what you got is uncetain it was NOT n i repeat NOT drug related.. it was just some young ghetto boys asking for money with guns..and the trigger was pulled case close…
well honey it was not for drugs #truefacts..
R I P
Our men are really becoming an endangered specie. So tragic …
Every murder is NOT drug related. This person was not killed by immigration so it is unfair to say he should not have gone back because he was deported. On the other hand, if he was deported for whatever the reason he should have not gone back to Guadaloupe. He could have gone somewhere else and have his family join him. All-in-all he had his reasons for going back. It is unfortunate that his life had to end in that manner.
Alasss.. R.I.P Ti-cork!.. irrie padner, always kixing around.. will always miss you
well earlier this week The man accused of stabbing a US cruise passenger to death almost three years ago has appeared in the High Court.
Tishara Daniel’s guilty plea to manslaughter was
rejected by Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP)
Anthony Armstrong. The 26 year old is accused of murdering American citizen Nina Elizabeth Nilssen whose body was found along a busy trail in a secluded area at Windward Bay Beach in Pigeon Point on January 19, 2010. Daniel, a native of
Dominica who resided at Swetes, allegedly stabbed
her in the neck causing her to haemorrhage to death, an autopsy found. He was picked up by police two weeks later and charged.
His attorney Dane Hamilton Jr, who appeared
confused by his client’s guilty plea, asked the court to allow him a few moments with Daniel.
The defendant was later returned to the dock and the DPP told the court that the plea was unacceptable. The young man had intended to plead guilty to murdering the US citizen and a psychiatric report was done by Dr James King
to verify that he is competent to in fact enter such a plea. Armstrong asked that the matter be adjourned to a date to be fixed during the
current assize. Nilssen was on a stopover in Antigua with family when the incident occurred.
as you can see, we acting the fool in Gwada, the US, and in Antigua
So many lives are lost to the abominable drug trade. I call it the new form of the slavery. The user toils to pay for his habit and in so doing enriches the ones above. Atrocities are carried out in it’s name. Families and relationships are destroyed
Where oh where does it all end?
James was deported from Guadeloupe. So why did he go back to the same Guadeloupe? But again, i guess he knew why
Frome a parishioner!
THERE COMES A TIME IN ONES LIFE WHEN YOU SAY “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH” TAKE JAH BLESSINGS AND RUN OR FACE THE CONSEQUENCES, all the same…
My deepest sympathy goes out to “Te-Cock’s” wife, children and family, as they struggle through the grief and sadness. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
see how they kill de man like a dog the man never looking pple troble always cool with every boy this need to stop too many da man loseing there life in guadeloup r.i.p my friend
He was deported for drug related matters but you still say:
“the man never looking pple troble always cool with every boy “
I quite agree with you, here comes the double stndard. it is a shame the the life of every human being that is taken away. According to the Christian so called “Good Book” Says, “I take no pleasure in the death of him that dieth”…
But to say that he did not look no one trouble is an under statement. selling drugs, is one of the saddest shame that could ever befall our society. After all all the trouble that druga dn its dealers and effects crat in the lives of our young men and society. to some people this is quite the norm. God save us from drugs and its dealers.
wen wheel wi learn

You’re the bomb I had a good laugh still LMFAORL ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thanks. See his/her name it’s as hard as a rock nothing cannot get in there.

DNO first time i hear he was also known as kashacou, since kashacou died long time. Am from Scott’s Head and we know him as T-Cook. Very quiet man, when he is in Scott’s Head u would see him in French Town sitting on the Lazy Bench.
So sad he had to pass like this.
My deepest sympathy to his entire family and the Scott’s Head, Soufriere and Gallon community.
He was known as T-Cock NOT T-Cook!
He was known as Kashakou by his frends n family in grand bay but mainly known as ti-cork
sad sad another country man gone.sympathies to his wife and families.
It’s vieux-Bourg Abymes . all my sympathie 2 the family , it is alway’s other’s suffering 4 our mistakes
