The relatives of three of the four victims that were violently killed earlier this year can now breathe a sigh of relief as the police have managed to solve the cases. At a joint press conference held between the Gendarmes, the Dutch Police and Prosecutors Office on Monday the disclosure was made.
Chief Public Prosecutor Hans Mos said the suspects confessed to their involvement in the murder of Ludovic Guillevin (the chef on Cheetah Moon), Fiodel Louis (the Haitian Security Guard who was killed while on his way to work), and Eduardo Nova Valdez (the Spanish Pastor whose body was found on Alexis Arnell Road).
These murders were committed between February 26th and March 4th 2011. Behind bars for the brutal murders, rape and string of armed robberies are; Sherwan Roberts (20), Curtley Richards (31) and Julius Serrant (28) all natives of Dominica.
Mos said on Thursday April 7th 2011, three men were arrested. They were to be considered the main suspects of, at that time, two violent robberies and a rape later police arrested two other suspects who were subsequently released.
The Chief Prosecutor explained that the murders committed since February 26th and March 4th showed some similarities and such the investigators assumed that the cases were inter-related and must have been committed by the same person or persons. It must be noted that all three victims were killed violently as they were beaten then shot to death.
One strategy to decide a distinct segment marketplace is to consult with and notice the primary merchandise.
it is what it is
its verry shamful but remember everyway hav there good and bad
boy why u go up sxm,an mix up wit curtlie.u should stay down DA,an work with tanman.now u in some messed up sh*t.jah boy?
I got my start in SM. I love the place and was always treated well by my friends born in SM. I do not subscribe to the death penalty because it is not universally applied. But in this case, KILL the BASTARDS, then do exactly what the Catholic Church did to William Tyndale, although I do not contribute to the reason they did it.
When people invite you in their homes, you cannot treat them like that. I can tell you, it is not only in SM these young Dominican behaved badly. I no longer attend Dominican parties here in New York because of the behavior of some of many of these badly brought up children who believe they bought their badness in Kmart.
I hope the government will send an emissary to SM to address the issue on behalf of those many, many law fearing and hardworking Dominicans.
TELL ME ABOUT IT. BEEN IN THIS COUNTRY FOR 22 YEARS AND MY PEOPLE ARE NOW A DISGRACE IN THE STATES…THEY SAY THAT I DONT HANG OUT AROUND THEM AND THATS THE REASON WHY!
aye we dominicans should stop those sh*t we doin…..cause it dont look good at all…..some are even afraid to travel cause they think that they will be a threat for the country……..i am sick of hearin domincan names in those things…….PEOPLE STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like them to fell the same pain. Rape them and kill them the same way then justis will be.
YOU CAN RUN BUT YOU CANNOT HIDE DO TO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD LIKE THEM TO DO UNTO YOU
Nom sympathy for them,once they guilty whateverm penalty is fine, esayn money they want so take the jail easy too,,,just that thjese activities affec all other law-abidingn citizens….suggest photos of then three be publishe4d in newspapers her so if they escape or deported ,,people will be on the look-out.Zero-Tolerance needed
thats not strange dominican men have been doing that in the french island just that they take it to st martin ,so many people heve been kill in th lops and mari galante by dominican thry should be hang in the public gabage men ,
STICK THE FLIPPING VISA ON THEM , ROUND UP THOSE WITHOUT PAPERS S END THEM BACK TO DOMINICA, THEIR COUNTRY DOING WELL, THEY CAN LOAN MONIES TO ANTIGUA AND ANGUILLA , SO WE HAVE SEND THE LAZY ASSES BACK TO THEIR COUNTRY., IT IS SO DAMN SHAMEFUL TO SEE THE WAY IN WHICH SOME DOMINICANS LIVE IN SXM AND THE THINGS THEY SUBJECT THEMSELVES TO, SOME ARE MUCH BETTER OFF BACK IN THEIR OWN LAND. FOR THE BLASTED THUGS, LOCK THEM UP OR BETTER YET GIVE THEM THE MAX AND THROW AWAY THE KEY, STUPID IDIOTS. WE ALL KNOW SXM AND ITS PEOPLE ARE VERY QUICK TO BLAME,OUTSIDERS, THE FAMOUS KILLER, RAPIST FROM FRENCH QUARTER STILL ALIVE , SO MANY DOMINICAN MEN GOT BEATEN AND SOME KILLED FOR HIS ACTIONS . GOD HELP THOSE DOMINCAN IN SXM .
MY X GIRL FRIEND WENT IN THE STATION THIS MORNING TO IDENTIFY TWO OUT OF THREE MEN THAT RAPED HER IN 2009……..THOSE GUYS JUST BRING SHAME TO DOMINICA
why should u all worry about a visa,wen sxm posted visa for JA ana GA u all was saying a lot that they cuz trouble where ever they go ,rem the remarks on the bajan in reguard of the JA now they will say the same for DA people ,lesson learn please do not talk bad about other countries ,there are good and bad apples.
100% in agreement.
Hope this is a lesson learnt.
This is a waste of human lives, … Drugs are destroying the entire world, men have no sense of direction any more. they don’t value life,…. we are becoming a species on the brink of being extinct. & i might add we most definately don’t need any help from mother nature,- we are doing a dam- good job of it one to another. where have all the – love & respect gone? ( nothing is wrong with the world it’s just the people that’s in it ) so true.
I am a Dominican living in St.Maarten and as soon as i arrived at work my Jamaican co-workers threw the news paper at me saying “all you Dominicans make the headlines too , so they are going to put visa for Dominicans to come to ST.Maarten too”” ——– I personally knew the Hatian national that these guys brutally murdered. What a shame no matter where these murders are from wether its Dominica or any other nation!!!! These guys theyare making it bad for all of us living and working on the island .
oh nono no
now some people are just evil, i khope justice is served
This is so sad.
Apparently they confessed, why admit to such horrible crimes if you didnot commit them.
My sympathy goes out to the families of the victims, they have to live with the fact that their loved ones were murdered, also the rape victim(s), as they have to live with that awful memory.
I dont know the families of the accused, but they to are victims of their relatives crimes.
Are these 3 men from the same country that just recently was beating Barbados to death because of a few incidents there? Hmmmmm. I wonder if any of you jokers got anything to say now?????
Yes we do YOU ARE AN IDIOT!!!!!
Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!!! Further we fall.
Sherwan dat u have urself in boy. How stupid u have to be to kill someone.stupes
To think, This Roberts Guy mom works soo hard day in and day out selling her little peanuts on the streets of Possie to have sent her children to school and for this ungrateful punk to put shame in his mother’s eyes like that. and for what? bling? man, what I would do to mister them eh……
The bad thing is…not only will these 3, if found guilty pay for the crime, but the stigma will be attached to other Dominicans. I do not want a stigma attached to me where someone will say ‘ A Dominican again!” or before a crime happen for people to say ” a Dominican that do that!
I see it every time with Jamaicans (sorry for that analogy)
Please my fellow Dominicans….when we get to another man’s country, let’s respect their laws and life. Let’s not think that we are above it…but most of all, let’s remember that when 1 of us does bad, it may reflect on all the rest of us.
People think before you act.
Now these 3 stooges may have just spoiled and tarnished things for the other Dominicans in SMX.
SMH at what some of us are becoming.
visa restrictions may soon come because some of our yutes not behaving themselves
Portsmouth again!!! Not Grand Bay this time EH EH !
u really stupid….. portsmouth, grandbay, roseau which ever village or town, is still our country DOMINICA…… if u didn’t know what to write then don’t write.
i like that reply. some people don`t look at the big picture they just look at things for what they`re and make stupid comments.
WHAT A SHAME. EVERY TIME YOU TURN A DOMINICAN DOTHIS AND A DOMINICA DO THAT.
WHY CAN’T THESE GUYS LEARN TO BEHAVE THEMSELVES. THEY ARE MAKING SO DIFFICULT FOR OTHER TO TRAVEL BY GIVING DOMINICANS BAD NAMES BY COMMITTING
THESE CRIMES.
Now more issues for Dominicans in SM. Why do some people always have to spoil things for others? Sometimes it is so hard to believe that our children are doing those things… whatever happened to lovely Dominica?
oh lord my god,what is wrong with these men,demons.i even hort,my husband and i are supposed to be honeymooning in st martin/st marteen and i even shame i telling you to even go and enter dem people place with that dominican passport.
you that fake no name, no warrant, get your own name, you sound more like a warrant without a name, – anyway i’m changing my name, so u can keep it. it’s a shame u can’t find your own name. you are what i call – lion in sheep skin,- and wolf in sheep clothing.
all u got jokes…..
My fake name is Oh Me Oh My, i did not take your fake no name no warrant which is not your real name, likewise yourself i am not brave enough to put my real name on the drama board i gave my comment and ended by saying no name no warrant, that is, I am not mentioning any one name they know themselves, again as i said previously, no name no warrant
IF THEY DID THE CRIME-LOCK THEM UP AND THROW AWAY THE KEYS.
Its a Shame because two of the guys are from Portsmouth (again)* STOP GIVING MY COUNTRY N TOWN A BAD NAME!!!!!!!!!!!!
portsmouth guys known for buggering thiefing drugs and raping i hate dem people there , if you hear your woman deal with a possy man leave her ontime because she might get aids, dont expect anything from portsmouth young fellas because all want to wake up in the morning go sit by the road well dress and gold shining but thier bottom hurting
what a shame for our country Dominica…….These thugs don’t want to work and they just want to rob people for what is theirs..That is if they were legal in the people country..I hope when they put them in jail, they throw the keys!!! These are the kinds of people that make things difficult for other good citizens. Rite now all Dominicans trying to go to SM, it’s gonna be difficult for them..
I congratulate the police force and detectives in Sm for great job, on solving these heartless crimes..
The police force need training from the police dpt of Sm on how to solve crimes..
There are too many unsolved murders in DA!!
IS DAT SHERWIN ROBERTS FROM POSSIE. G I HOPE DAT AINT U
is him without a doubt
DOMINICANS, YOU SOW BITTER SEEDS NOW YOU MUST DRINK BITTER WATERS. YOU ALL HAVE BEEN CULTIVATING THESE KIND OF CRIMINALS FOR THE LONGEST TIME. YOU SEE THEY ARE SO ACCUSTOM OF COMMITTING VIOLENT CRIMES IN DOMINICA AND GETTING AWAY WITH IT THROUGH THE HANDS OF CORRUPTED OFFICIALS THAT THEY FEEL THAT THEY ARE IMMUNE TO CRIME AND CAN COMMIT AND GET AWAY WITH IT IN ANY OTHER COUNTRY. (WRONG) THE ONLY THING TO THAT IS THE LAWYERS AND MAGISTRATES OF THOSE COUNTRIES ARE NOT CORRUPTED AS THOSE IN DOMINICA. MAGISTRATE TIYANI BEHANZIN SHOULD JOIN FORCES WITH THOSE IN ST MAARTEN, FOR HIS SERVICES IS BADLY NEEDED THERE. AND TO THOSE WHO COMMITTED THOSE CRIME, I SAY (HANG EM HIGH) THREE LESS BAD SEEDS OUT OF DOMINICA.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT CORRUPTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO YOU LIVE IN SXM!!!!!!!!!! USE UR COMPUTER WISELY AND SEARCH SXM NEWS DAILY TO SEE CORRUPTION
u right..i livin right here in SM….and corruption here like joke!!! Them people even thiefing our hard earn money
Real sad. What I cannot understand is, ok you pretending to be a taxi. You voleh the man. Fine. Wrong, but fine! Why you have to kill him? Jah! I don’t think I will ever take a non registered taxi in my life again. Now you mess up all the (non registered) taxi man out there. Real shameless.
You know, sometimes we Dominicans sound pretty darm heartless. The report is saying that these guys killed three people, committed several rapes and robberies; yet, the most pervasive response from Dominicans is, “what happens to us now?” Things like, they make us shame..no more visa for US Dominicans….Does everything have to be about YOU? What about the people who got killed, raped and robbed? How about their families? What about the neighborhoods in SXM that were terrorized by these activities?
Maybe if we would start putting ourselves in their shoes, we would find solutions to some of these senseless acts. But from what I am reading, it seems like we are never concerned about the victim unless it is our own. Regardless of the situation, it sounds like we Dominicans are overly concerned about what happens to US, giving very little thought to the victims of our actions.. That is very selfish.
I hope the victims find the strength to at least cope with their losses. These acts are indeed senseless and must be very hard to live with. To the dead, may their souls rest in peace.
And sadly, when all is said and done, these monsters will be depoted to Dominica to terrorize the countries.
They should be put away for life! They should not have the opportunity to hurt anyone again!
THEY JUST WANT EASY MONEY. BUT EASY COMES EASY GO. THEY DON’T KNOW YOU SHOULD WORK HARD FOR YOU MONEY. THEY TOOK LIVES THEY MUST PAY HARD FOR THE PRICE. YES THEY PUT BAD NAMES ON DOMINICAN BUT MORE ON THEMSELVES. I
HOPE THEY GIVE THEM THE CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
WELL the st. martin paper said they are involved so it might not be dem that did the crime, additionally st martin people are saying the police are not doing the job good and are fishing evidence because they arrested five people and let go two—so lets see how the case goes for all you knw they are innocent Dominicans dont be fast to pass judgement
http://www.smn-news.com/st-maarten-st-martin-news/6438-police-solved-three-of-the-four-murders-committed-earlier-this-year-suspects-also-committed-several-robberies-and-rape-dominican-nationals-confessed.html
wa happen u putting your hands in fire for them..I am a Dominican and i am not feeling sorry for them..People need to take responsibility for their actions..
This been happening for a long time in SM, somewhere in the late 80s or early 90s, can’t remember exactly, two dominican men / drug dealers were arrested in SM, driving a rental car with a dead body in the trunk, no name no warrant
Which paper your read, read it again? Did you read where they confessed to the crimes.
Them no themselves, both from the south of DA, loubiere and the other from newtown the bar man, give possie people a break all over da have criminals, name one village in da without a criminal, hahaha, same on all of us
one bad apple could spoil a whole bunch for real…..throw away the keys…..heartless worthless …words just can’t express my feelings…sooo shame
When materialism becomes a god that’s what happens.
Lack of spirituality, weak or non existent conscience are open doors to the criminal world. Sad and pathetic.
Now, they gonna put visa restrictions on Dominicans to go to SXM!
one thing i no that is not da where they would give them a slap on the wrist. death row for them if not lock them behind bars for life and throw there keys in the ocean. so ashame. giving da a bad name. a few less problems on the street. i just hope and pray that these familes get justice.
It is so embarrassin wat Dominicans do in foreign countries. Dats how some of them want to live by robbing people for wat they work hard for. They do their crime let them face their time.
I’m a Dominican leaving in sxm and de put shame in our eyes………….mag way sa………………..
and what we r concerned about is the visa restrictions we might have to face just because of these fakeholes….plus dutch law might not give them enough time in that so-called hotel….better they ship them to guada i would feel satisfied…..
This is so sad. On another note, we were here bashing the hatians over their deeds in Dominica but our very own are now making us ashamed in another country. Lets see crime for what it is: an individual choice, an individual problem. Let’s remove the “national label” that we attatch to it.
Only the family of this guys should see the light of day. Send him to Venezuela
I hope that there is no mercy for them.
Apparently the guys confessed. Since people have become fearless of God, nothing is too out of order for them to do. They have lost their consciences. As we would say, ‘Dat Dozn rayn again’. Hence the great attraction to violence spewing ideologies.
hang them please. make a serious example for giving us these bad rep. i mean, how tormented must you be to kill a pastor? rape? robbery? we really need to impose death sentence to none nationals when they do this crap. and the dominican gov should help in any way
Stuppessss!!!!! their names only call because they had some sort of involvement. There’s no smoke without fire!!! Some Dominicans just like to show off their ass when they in other people country. Come on St. Maarten officials let them feel the full force of the law. One of them is even my cousin but I am not bias, what goes for the goose goes for the gander too!!!
WELL WE CAN SEE NOW THAT DOMINICANS
ARE GETTING TO THE NEXT LEVEL AS THE DLP
SAID IN THER MANNIFESTO THEY WILL TAKING
DOMINICA TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
MAY THE GOOD LORD HELP THE PEOPLE OF DOMINICA.
how is this about politics??geez dominicans just mustttttttttttt bring politics in everythingggggggg
This is such a ignorant comment. The Dominican nationals are living in another Country probably like yourself. I don’t see the relation of the actions having to do anything with the DLP taking Dominica to the next level.
When we go in other countries their laws apply to us as well, So adhere to the laws of the country you’re living in and don’t pass the blame on the Government of Dominica for your irresponsible actions. Get real and place the blame directly on the shoulder of the accused.
Y you don shut ur trap if u cant find nothing relative to say. What DLP hav to do with it? These boys could be ur own famly or frends that you didnt care for. Where politics come in dere? Long befo DLP Domininican yuth killin in those countries. U trying too hadd to blame govment and you not makin no sense.
is labour party causing starvation in D’ca why hungry dominican youths running guadeloupe, st maarten and BVI to kill, steal and destroy. dlp is just like satan
@like it is
In politicizing this matter
these statements speaks of your blatant ignorance to the freedom that you are wasting while others are dying for it …..
this also reflects the poor level of natural commonsense that God has blessed every man but in your case is gradually eluding you, due to your shortsightedness
how sad is you case
Peoples like you should hide themselves and listen but not speak .
You are a waste of sperm,
Stupid boys comitting crimes in other countries or even in their country have nothing to do with politics. Why do people like you even waste time and write? i dont know becaue you are whats wrong with dominica…I hope you read what you wrote and the response that you are getting because this is the most ridiculous thing that i have ever read..You are just stupid or too stupid to make even a bit of sense…ssssssttttttuuuuuupppppeeeeesssss IGNORANT
It is time that they identify people like you and lock you up for such silly ignorant statements. i am sure that you are a potential criminal in the making. Only that could bring out such ignorant bull!! IDIOT!!!!!!!!!
….and here goes visa restrictions on Dominicans wanting to Travel to SXM, SXM so sweet boi, why them man have to spoil this for everybody…stupes
So I guess Dominicans will soon need visa to go to SXM like the Jamaicans and Guyanese…SHAME…
HANG THERE A#@S….going to ppl country and forming the royal….giving us a bad name….making travel for other ppl difficult…..stupes
JADE I AGREE WITH. SOME D/CA NOT ALL. BECAUSE THERE R MANY HERE WORKING HARD FOR THEIR LIVING. JUST A HAND FULL DOIND FOOLISHNESS
WHETHER QUICK R NOT CRIME MUST BE SOLVE. R IS IT BECAUSE IT DOMINICANS THAT IT SHOULDNT BE SOLVE. I DONT KNOW WHEN A DOMINICAN DO SOMETHING THEY SHOULDNT PAY FOR THEIR CRIME? SOME OF THEIR PPL ALWAYS HAVE A PROB WITH HOW FAST THE CATCH THEM AND THIS AND THAT. WE DONT TELL YOU HOW TO RUN DOMINICA SO DONT TELL US HERE HOW TO DO AND WHEN TO DO OUR JOBS. CRIME IS CRIME NO MATTER WHO COMMITS IT.
BUT WAIT, WHAT PAGE YOU READING? NOBODY DISPUTING THAT THOSE MONSTERS SHOULD NOT PAY FOR THEIR CRIMES, OR HOW ALLU SHOULD RUN ALLU COUNTRY, WHAT YOU BLABBING ABOUT?
Moron how many years allu can’t solve the Nathalie case in Aruba??? Who gives a rats as? About SXM.
I have followed this case on CNN. They can solve it but refuse to do so. The evidence is there as to who was responsible for Nathalie’s disappearance. Status speaks. The authorities do not want to expose this young man. Let them and him continue keeping it a secret. He is in prison in Peru for another crime. It may never get away.
They can run and hide from the law but not from God. God knows who is responsible for Nathalie’s disappearance. The day will come when he and those who hide the fact will pay the price for all eternity. This is our consolation.
I do feel sorry for Nathalie’s parents. They want the case closed but as long as this young man does not divulge any concrete information to convince the police authorities, this case will not be closed. May something happen to close it.
sherwan not sherwin
so embarassing.

Weh boy, things that bad that these fellas could check their consciences and just decide to steal, rape, and kill their way into attaining money?
For how we are a small country and community, it is sometimes hard for me to fathom that we are capable of producing monsters, but here we are.
Anyways French and Dutch authorities, do what you want with them. By their actions they forfeited all their Dominican rights, you may keep them and dispose of them how you see fit. Make examples of them.
These guys bringing down Dominica’s good name…
A voice, I agree with everything you have said except about the rape part. People dont rape for money, they rape to exercise power over the victim and in many cases to degrade them. The worst form of insult combined with injury. It is a heinous crime with no excuse, no pardon. In many cases the woman ends up pregnant or diseased and have to relive that experience throughout her life. If a child comes out of it, it is stigmatized in his own mind, no matter how much the mother tries to protect it. All its life the child cannot find peace within. There should be a special punishment for such rapists that includes relieving them of some body parts, and placing ‘the mark of the beast’ on their faces..
You got that right, I hope they rot in jail. But SXM judicial system is cr*p, they will be out soon, so fricking sad. Curtley just spoil the little Roberts fella. Stupesssssssssssss
This is very disturbing news and not very good news for the Town of Portsmouth, Coomonwealth of Dominica. All three accused are reportedly from Portsmouth and Portsmouth is the town where most boats plying the huckster trade to Saint Martin/Saint Maaten originate. The damage these guys have done is irrepairable in the short term and can cost Dominicans living and working in the twin island nation much embarassment and scrutiny.
These culprits must be dealt with the full arm of the law, including regretably the DEATH PENALTY.
This Curtley Guy has been in and out of jail both in DA and overseas. It is time that these guys be kept in jail PERMANENTLY and NVER see the light of day again. That is the only way we can protect society from these MONSTERS!!!
YEP AGAIN IN SXM. SHAMEFUL. I GUESS THEY WILL PUT VISA FOR DOMINICANS NOW LIKE THEY DID FOR JAMAICANS AND GUYANEESE.
WELL WE ARE HAPPY THAT WERE CAUGHT BECAUSE INNOCENT PPL WOULD HAVE BEN BLAMED
I hope the authorities are wrong and that these Dominicans are not involved. It seems perplexing that the Dutch/ French authorities can so quickly solve these murders yet they cannot solve the one in Aruba of Yoran vandersleuth or whatever his name is!!
On the other hand if these guys are really the perpetrators then they should be given the maximum penalty.. Death by hanging!!!
lmaoooooooooooooooooooooo i agree with u….not everything u read in news is true.if they guilty they shud pay!!!! i dnt believe thier bulsh*t story…….lol
Why all the hate. I am just saying I hope these guys are not being used as “scape goats”. People there I a tendency by law enforcement to want to appease the people when there are unsplved murders. Most times they use immigrants who do not have any status to pon the crime on.
TAKE WHAT U READ WITH A GRAIN OF SALT!!!
Dominicans Again!!! Why cant our people behave themselves when they go to other peoples countries? Isnt it time some dominicans stop giving all of us dominicans bad names? I hope these three fry if they are indeed guilty…rape, robbery and murder? Please St.Martin give them life in prison so they wont get the chance to come back to dominica. We dont want them back in our country!!!!stupes
U are so right.Dont deport them ,they will do the same thing here in Dominica and wont be caught. SHAME ON THOSE WHO COMMITT ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES IN OTHER COUNTRIES AND BRING DOWN THE NAME OF DOMINICA SO LOW.
