Various talking heads. Top of the list the icon Mutty Perkins. Others include Deacon Thwaites which is expected and Carol Narcisse (sp) of NNN.

any idea what the murder rate is for June

[Islandman]

Well thats the job of a talking head, nuh true, fe talk?

Still, with added power comes added responsibility, so we do need to keep an eye on the security forces. If them handle it reasonably well I say mek we run wid the SoE for another 9 months.

They claim there is a reduction, I'll wait until the month done to take any figure seriously.

I don't object to holding the forces accountable, but all I'm hearing is this won't work or that won't work. Allow the forces to deal with the matter and if they violate anybody's rights, then deal with that tuh!

Fair enough.

Here is the latest from the gleaner ...

June murders continue to trend downwards


There has been a noticeable dip in the murder figures for the month of June thus far with 58 murders being committed up to June 20.

This is a 63 per cent decline in the murder rate.

This downward trajectory continues the trend for June which saw a 50 per cent decline for the first two weeks.

Police statistics obtained by The Gleaner show that this is 34 less than the 92 homicides recorded over the same period last year.

Since the start of this month, there has been a steady decline in murders. This coincides with a major push by the security forces to dismantle criminal gangs.

However, the 793 murders reported since the start of the year is 74 more than was reported for the same period last year.

A record 1,680 people were murdered in Jamaica last year.

So far this this year the police have also seized 331 firearms and over 16,000 rounds of assorted ammunition.
