Regional approach to crime needed, says Mottley - Barbados Today

Barbados’ Prime Minister Mia Mottley has made a case for a regional slant in some critical areas, to arrest the Caribbean’s growing crime and violence situation.She suggests that the exchange and rotation of judges across jurisdictions, the creation of a CARICOM arrest warrant, the deconstruction of archaic laws governing the police and the cooperation of forensics departments are some of the mechanisms necessary to get a handle on the growing problem.Mottley insists that it is critical to address jurisprudential developments which are allowing persons on multiple murder charges to get bail, saying that across the Caribbean, these individuals are shown to be the ones “causing the greatest problems”.“I asked myself two basic questions. One, how are we going to deconstruct and reconstruct, to meet the reality of this jurisprudential development that is undermining the rule of law in our countries? We’re going to have to find ways of cooperating from the level of the police, to the level of the courts, but in particular forensics.
