The comments attributed to Paula Llewellyn, the director of public prosecutions (DPP), as reported in the editorial of The Gleaner dated March 26, 2014 and captioned 'Resisting temptation', if, in fact, those reports are accurate, are quite unfortunate.
Coming on the heels of the decision of Resident Magistrate (RM) Judith Pusey that Kern Spencer and Coleen Wright have no case to answer and dismissing the case against them, the DPP is reported as making several and repeated public comments that there was an "abundance of evidence" against Spencer and Wright and in the circumstances, "justice was not served". Further, after the ruling the DPP, while stating that her office respects the ruling of RM Pusey, goes on to remark that she disagrees with that ruling.
