    Is that the same person who so gladly watches another person downfall? Is that the same person who celebrated when the teacher in Grammar School was knocked out. Is that why you did not go back to your job? Well well that is not so nice.

      @ observant

      If this is the same person who wished others harm and rejoiced in their downfall, time has a way of taking care of such people. This should be a lesson to others.

      The big fishes are always hard to catch. Have patience. Do not despair. Their day is coming, if not in this world but in the nether world. They will not escape then.

      Why don’t you give the police a clue as to where and who the Big fishes are so they would be apprehended

    She is not from Loubiere. she rents a house in Loubiere but lives with her boyfriend in Kingshill. She is from Newtown proper. Please investigate her extended family and you will see the connection to the bigger business

    when these poor/broke, struggling people are arrested and charged for drugs, how are they gonna pay the fines?? its the same Drugs they’re gonna go back to in order to pay the fines, People are broke, there are no jobs, whether or not u have college degrees in whatever, where are the jobs?? i don’t see the point of hustling these poor people knowing that the fines to be paid are gonna be paid by the same DRUGS which they’re being charged for

      Never make excuses for those who are unemployed. Some people are unemployed through their own fault. They may not have taken an interest in studies while at school and there are other reasons. When they grow older, they turn to crimes and some of you make excuses for them. We are all responsible for ourselves. How we live our life and what we make of it is what we will become.
      There are some who are unemployed and who do not turn to crimes or illegal drug trafficking and selling.

      The law does not require you to have it in your house or on your person. If you merely have knowledge of its presence and did not report it them you can be found guilty. So watch what you say please.

  15. July 12, 2012

    There’s no sure thing as a little weed, what i am seeing in that picture is not a little weed, all drugs is drugs weed, cocaine etc

    This place been involve in drugs trafficking for a long time, not mention the big cocaine dealer the criminal in the 70s brother, no name no warrant

    they did the same thing to me, they removed two of my coment

    ADMIN: We cannot publish the name of the person unless she is charged by the police.

  19. July 12, 2012

    Admin: just wondering what was the reason for deleting my comment, saying that her name should be make known and that there is too much double standard in DA, you people deleted my comment

      what is her name is it? J.O.H.N D.O.E

      eg this is clearly stating no ones name

      July 12, 2012

      @ John

      Give the Police a chance to properly investigate this situation. Then the name will be released.
      Do not blame DNO for this. DNO is not able to release the name until the Police release the name of the person. Do you want DNO to be charged for releasing the name? Why can you not comprehend that?
      I reside in Canada and on many occasions people are arrested and their names are withheld, pending further investigation. This is customary and nothing to be surprised about and complain about. The public must be satisfied with it. In time their names will be revealed.

      • Law
        July 13, 2012

        You are absolutely right, ppl do not know the law. u cannot release the name of the person in custody unless the authorities releases the name. Dno can be charged for releasing such information even if we all know who it is.

  20. July 12, 2012

    Things will never work in DA, cause the authorities on the island are not fear. what make this woman different from other drug dealers, by not mentioning her name

    The police always jump to put men name, age, what village they residing in, and this woman name is being withheld, why is it that she need to be treated with favour, her name need and age also need to be posted, justice for one is justice for all.

    People need to know who she

    I feeling sorry for your fatther,your mother moving in her grave. The woman with the biggest month will try to get other people in her mess.

    • July 12, 2012

      Agree with you need the name why not disclose her name when we have the guy from Mprne Prosper and others names out there, this is double standard this is why the island is going down down down

      If it is good to post others names as the saying goes what good for the goose is also good for the gander, her name should be make known

  27. Well look it

    I think even if the woman’s name is not disclosed,the fact that she’s assisting police in their investigations should not be made public #I’m just saying# for her safety,”investigations are ongoing”maybe?just too much info to the public, but hey I’m not law enforcement,good job on the bust though.

        You must have ties in the police force for you to know whether she is assisting them or not. Stop wishing bad for people woman.

    July 11, 2012

    I commend the police on the discoveries they are making, but it is all about drugs. What is happen to crime in Dominica. I am not going to applaud everytime they discover drugs, because nothing is being done about crime and other criminal activities. Drugs taking lives as well as Crime investigate them both with the same enthusiasm.
