    Ok help me to understand . . . didn’t Alvone Maybury escape custody by having his hands handcuffed in front of him and no shackles on????? So why in the hell is another person going to court with his hands handcuffed in front of him and no leg shackles. Outside of the threat of escape do police and prison officers realize that a person could choke them to death by placing their handcuffs around their neck?????

    Is Bermuda Police & Prison Departments that far behind or that DUMB????

    @ Gina.

    Wonders never cease. However, it would be interesting to see a video of an overweight police officer chasing an overweight accused!
    All kidding aside, some people never learn. Who is in charge here?

    Seriously, I thought maybe it’s just me!!!!!!!!

    • LOL says:

      Exactly! That’s the first thing I thought looking at the picture. Then again this is Bermuda we are talking about. I wonder what their excuse would have been had he got away too(weight issues aside LOL).

    And on the news the Police Officer was walking a couple of paces AHEAD of the prisoner on the way back to the Police Station… Seriously!?

    Of course the Cop is going to walk in fron of him on the way back. Part of the training.

    Prison Officers will now be required to have, carry and display 4pm meals whhilst escorting inmates too and from Fairmont Westgate.

    Progress is being made as we speak. The Warden of Fairmont Westgate has engaged the help of chefs that are being scaled back at local hotels. This is all being done to help them out during periods of setbacks on overtime and lost wages.
    Battlefield & Wullus are bringing in free Lamb which will be served on Sondays. Lamb Shanks will be served with tomato sauce and fresh herbs. ( Note:- the shanks can be used for other things but I cannot disclose that at this time)

    Dale Butler will also be providing a new ‘Brunch’ Wagon. His commitment along with Ashfield Smeef reinforces the Guvhamantz theme of….If you do the crime, vun dey yool doo dee tyme.

    Sneakers not included and hashpoppies and ankle bracelets must be purchased two weeks before trial/and/or court appearance.

    Oh my god, am I really seeing what I am seeing? Handcuffed at the front AGAIN???? Presumably they didn’t think this one would even try and run away? I tell you what, this makes me laugh out loud (ironically) – what needs to happen to this country for them to learn? Dear oh dear (big expasperated sigh!)
