I actually think the first six minutes are very important....assault rifles routinely coming into the island-to be used against civilians and police alike by people with no scruples such as the recently deceased.
This man in question apparently-in front of witnesses-stabbed his wife to death and then attacked and stabbed others who came to her aid. He was laying on the ground throwing stones at the officer, as seen on the video.
While I do not think that the police should be judge, jury and executioner, if we are going to be distraught at the loss of life and barbarism of this situation, let it be centered on his dead wife. He acted like an animal and was put down like one.
Thanks for the comments. Dwight while i understand your point i however cannot agree with you. You see the funny thing about justice- you know that word that has lost its meaning in Jamaica- is you cant choose who to extend it to when one feels like it. To say put him down like the animal he is how does that make you different from him and it makes you wonder when will someone consider you the animal and put you out of your misery? Not that I'm a bleeding heart but its just a thought, cause the last time i checked when you fight fire with fire you just get a bigger fire and then everything burns down.

Sad comment above. How did you know that he is guilty?
