64 Jamaican shot, killed, stabbed and slaughtered by criminals in Jamaica
While Jamaica cries blood murderers continues to draw blood, at the same time it seems most Jamaican got immune to these kinds of criminal activities taken place on a daily basis. Tell a Jamaican 64 of their brothers and sisters got murdered this month and they instantly seems depressed and sadden, within a second or two they all forget about.
What can really be done by a regular citizen to make a difference tackling this crime beast, we could voice our concern or even start petitions or Facebook fan page brining light to what’s going on back in Jamaica and it still seems hopeless.
It was this week Jamaica Police and Military descend on Denham Town in Jamaica with the intent on capturing two wanted men, the police and military force was greeted with extreme violence and gun battled that last three hours.
When the dust settled a statement from the Jamaica Police Force sated that two gun men were captured but not without casualties, three law men injured while two known gunmen lost their lives. See the full report here (War Zone Breaks Out IN Hell, Gun Shot Rain IN Christopher 'Dudus' C...). This was a large scale gun battle but as you will soon realized from our report below, small sporadic gun battle took place all the time with police and gunmen regularly in Jamaica.
Today is March 18th 2010, a little bit past the half way mark of the month and we already seen a death toll of 64 for the month of March, this number are murderous crime committed by criminals. We did not count accidental death, natural death or death by police, these are murders committed by criminals.
Our numbers or not conclusive since Jamaica violent culture emulating a military war zone, nevertheless our numbers can be consider on point since we gather our info from Jamaica media outlet that report these crime. Keep in mind that some murders may not found out about yet or may not be reported, so this number is most likely more but not less.
