Had about a 40k loss and called them right away around 4:00pm and was told they have gone home for the day – would you like them to come dust the next morning? Bear in mind most people get home from work around 6pm and would discover a break-in then…. what kind of joke are they running over there? This is why we have a 20 percent increase – the burglars are fully immune.

Protect and server ladies and gents… minus the protect as usual.

You have a lot of criticism, but you offer no solutions. Policing is not an easy job.
But if someone does you wrong. Who you gonna call?

I guess 20% increase in burglaries will be worded carefully in the summary next year. Why did the BPS wait to Xmas to announce an obvious serious trend. If they were more proactive, maybe we could have avoided some victims. Why did neighborhood watch initiatives stop? Versus how many crimes were committed, how about we publish the number of criminals the BPS actually caught over the same period. Any? Now there is a statistic the people of Bermuda would love to know. Or do we just use the same comment for every crime…”if anyone has any information about this crime, please call”. As usual in Bermuda, no one is accountable for real performance. People just keep their jobs and get to look forward to the lucrative retirement benefits. I am reminded that the BPS mission statement is “making bermuda safer”. Tough to believe we are trending in a direction to support that statement.

This is not on. Bps thank you for the heads up. I personally advise a go pro installed fore and aft inside all vehicles set time frame of departure to and from properties… it will capture image of any and all unfamiliar with said neiborhood and near property… if there are beer tins and such near property care in picking it up, place it with pencil into a plastic bag it might suit you… be aware of your surroundings and be vigilant.

Many years ago someone with a police/lawyer background said that while we sleep safely in our homes at night there are people up at Casemates (oops, ‘Westgate’) who are awake at night figuring how they’re going to rip us off when they get out .
‘Crime free Bermuda ..’ HA !

Three strikes, you’re out mate! Well, if a man can brutally murder someone, get “life” in prison and then be walking around enjoying his freedom within fifteen years then a thief is hardly a top priority.

Some of these crack heads are laughing at you soft a$$ judges and playin’ the system to the hilt. Merry Christmas to all of the law abiding people of this beautiful island we call home!!

It always amazes me as I drive around the island that people have boxes out in the open displaying their new purchases. A thief would know exactly what you have in your house just by that one simple thing that most people probably dont give a second thought to.
