Senior members of the police force have been given a kick in the butt by Police Commissioner Owen Ellington for their failure to do more to reduce the number of fatal shootings by cops.

While accepting that some of these fatal shootings are unavoidable, Ellington has argued that "the number of reported incidents involving use of force by members of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) and the Island Special Constabulary Force is unnecessarily high and oftentimes unwarranted".

According to Ellington, checks have revealed that when these controversial or unnecessary shootings occur, the sub-officer of the senior member "has often submitted statements or reports that seek to remove responsibility from them".

But the commissioner said it has been proven that if the senior member had followed proper procedure, the fatal shootings might have been avoided.

"Against this background, greater responsibility will be placed on the subofficer or senior person responsible for briefing, debriefing, posting and/or dispatching of personnel who may have conducted himself contrary to this and other policies of the JCF," warned Ellington in the Force Orders issued yesterday.

You nuh hear rumours that they wanted to get him out long time. Bunting had to come out in full support of him.

Unnu think a everybody like changes for the better?

[Mosiah]

When the police approve of the commissioner, start fret!

[Assasin]

not a matter of approval but he has to have some support. The fact is some people feel a time to call for his head. Good thing Bunting giving him his support, if he had waiver the call would be much louder.

Out of order and a breach of discipline! The Federation has no business calling for the resignation of the commissioner unless he was convicted of a crime!

Where do you see the Federation calling for the Commissioner's resignation?

You confuse conjecture with reality
