Ganja found in slain cop's car

Evidence found in the motor car police Constable Delroy Brown drove to the volatile community of Seaview Gardens where he was shot dead last week suggests that the cop was trafficking in illegal drugs, a highly placed police source confirmed yesterday.
"There was ganja in his vehicle and it appeared he was a seller," said the source, who opted not to be named. "There was also a bail bond that he should not have had in his possession inside the vehicle."
At about 8:30 pm last Thursday, Brown had left a friend's house at Artic Boulevard, Phase II, in a section of Seaview Gardens known as 'Nitty Gritty' and was about to enter the Nissan Sunny motor car when he was shot.
Homicide investigators probing the cop's death found the ganja inside the car.
The revelation comes a day after Assistant Commissioner of Police Les Green came under fire from the Police Federation for commenting that some of the cops killed by gunmen were involved in criminal activities.
Head of the Police Federation, Sergeant Raymond Wilson on Monday described Green's statement as 'insensitive' and 'ill-timed' and called for him to furnish proof or resign from the constabulary.
However, Green has stood his ground and has not retracted his statement.
The revelation also comes days after the murder of Jamaican cop, Hastings Clarke, who was stabbed to death at Coconut Creek in South Florida on the weekend.
Clarke recently fled the island before he could be nabbed by his colleagues who were investigating his role in a stolen car ring.
Clarke reportedly boarded a flight out of the Norman Manley International Airport last month and was holed up in Florida at the home of a Jamaican woman in Coconut Creek.
He met his demise when the woman's spurned ex-lover barged into her home and attacked her with a knife.
Clarke intervened and was stabbed repeatedly by the man, who has been identified by US authorities as Paul Gayle.
Gayle has since been arrested and charged with first degree murder, attempted first degree murder and burglary.

Yet, the ridiculous discussion continues about ACP Green resigning for speaking the truth!

Raymond Wilson tek people fi eediat? He wants Green to provide evidence that the cops were involved in criminality. Well, there you have it! And for the others who may have been involved, how would this evidence be presented much less tried in a court of law?! Indeed, even in this case, he can argue that the ganja and the bail bond could have been placed there after the cop's demise.

And as for those families who may have felt hurt by the ACP's comments, if dem know say dem peoples never involve inna nutten, den obviously he was not referring to their loved ones and dem need fi cool!

All he has to do is look at the numver of slain cops who are given state funerals or burial with full honours and he will get his answer.

There was one cop that was killed outside a gated community near where I live over a year ago and the story was that he held up and robbed scammers of their money.

They knew where his woman lived and where he hung out and just waited for him to show up.

They are disingenuous and plain lie! If you follow Wilson's argument, the people killed by cops, even in self-defence, are all innocent, since they have not been charged and convicted in court.

But tell mi, how does the Public Defender find himself in this mess, on the side of the chupid Police Federation?!?

But yuh see the one who was involved in stolen car ring. Him fly out of the island, but get killed in Florida.

Betta him did stay a yard & get arrested. He would probably be still alive today.
