MYSTERY MAN DAMION CRAWFORD ON LEAVE FROM COUNCIL OF VOLUNTARY SOCIAL SERVICES
Independent candidate Damion O. Crawford is now on leave from his job at the Council of Voluntary Social Services, CVSS, on Tower Street in downtown Kingston.
Crawford has been facing a firestorm of criticism ever since he mysteriously turned up at the polling station last week and registered to contest the December 29 general elections against the PNP’s Damion O. Crawford and the JLP’s Joan Gordon-Webley in East Rural St Andrew.
Known loosely as ‘the other Damion Crawford’, the young man is currently employed to the CVSS, but is on leave until January 2012. One of his co-workers told chatychaty.com that Crawford’s leave started on Monday, December 19.
When asked if Damion Crawford had resigned in order to fulfil his political aspirations, the woman chuckled.
“Well, his boss told us that he is on leave. I suppose because of all that is happening with him now with this politics thing, he has taken some time off. But as to him resigning …that part would be news to us,” Crawford’s co-worker said.
But as to Crawford and “the politics thing”, a close associate told chatychaty.com that the young man “really has no political aspirations whatsoever” and “is desperate to withdraw, but is terrified”. He even reportedly made the decision to write a letter stating that he no longer wanted to be part of what is increasingly looking like a charade.
Numerous calls to Damion Crawford’s cell phone went straight to voicemail, without even a greeting to assure his supporters that this Independent candidate is serious about representational politics. Messages were left, but no calls have so far been returned.
According to our source, Damion Crawford suffers from epilepsy (fits) and is subject to severe seizures. “Sometimes when he comes out of them he can’t even remember his own name or where he lives in the lane.”
The source confirmed that Crawford does have a Bachelors degree, “but he is not pursuing a Masters”.
“He is a poor youth who just wants to go back into obscurity. He didn’t think about this and clearly whoever put him up to it didn’t realize that there would be such repercussions. They even created a Facebook page that he knew nothing about and then said it was “other persons”. It is a mess. He doesn’t want to see it through to the end, but he is terrified of what could happen if he decides that he is going to withdraw,” the source said.
