Open letter to the director of public prosecution - teen sex tape (10/5/2016)
take this opportunity to write to you in your capacity of director of public prosecution; please find attached the document titled: “An open letter to the Commissioner of Police - teen sex video". That document was prepared after I had an investigative viewing of that sex video which is currently circulating on the internet.
I outlined some key and critical points about the wicked act that was inflicted upon that young lady, which was picked up by my keen observation skills. As a result, I suggested to the Commissioner of Police Michael Charles that this matter should be properly investigated, for it seems to be apparent that several wicked crimes were committed and to ignore this incident can open the flood gates of similar crimes to become a reoccurring phenomenon in St Vincent and the Grenadines.
Such cannot benefit any citizen of this blessed land, St Vincent and the Grenadines. To ignore this incident will in no way help St Vincent and the Grenadines, but it will further damage the already bad record St Vincent and the Grenadines has, as was confirmed by the United Nations.
Unfortunately, according to the United Nations human rights and crime statistics, St Vincent and the Grenadines ranked in the top three countries in the world, for rape and other sexual crimes inflicted against women. This makes St Vincent and the Grenadines the most female hostile country in the entire Caribbean. Statistics such as these will cause our foreparents to turn over in their graves.
I am sure you have seen the sex video in question, in your capacity of director of public prosecution, and I am also sure, after would have read my open letter to the commissioner of police, you would find that my letter was instrumental in helping you to notice some things that you have overlooked when you reviewed the footage.
As you would know, all over the world, rape and other sexual crimes do not need the complainant’s permission for the culprit to be prosecuted, but the prosecuting authority takes such matters to court, and in cases where a complainant is reluctant to comply with the prosecution for whatever reasons, the victims and witnesses are subpoenaed to give her evidence in court and, if it is needed, they are classified and treated like hostile witnesses.
But what is more fitting and will make the investigation easy and if it reaches to the court system, will support the state’s case, are the video footages that the exploiters recorded of the disturbing events and for reason unknown took the liberty to distribute the same. I am also sure copies of these clips are in your and the police possession.
Over the years, our actions have proven that we do not love our women folks; they have been subject to all manner of violent abuses without any hope of redress. We ought to remember that the each woman is our mother, our sister, our wife. We must also remember that each woman holds the God given post of the mother of civilization and should be afforded the dignity, the respect and the love from each of us.
One way in which the government and people of St Vincent and the Grenadines can show our women that we respect and love them is by ensuring that this abused girl child is at least given the dignity of an impartial investigation into the matter.
I am calling on you, Colin Williams, to turn a new page in your book as director of public prosecution and help your mother country, my mother country to get this one right. I am calling on you in your capacity of director of public prosecutions to instruct the commissioner of police to carry out an impartial investigation into the making of this sex tape and let us see if what appears to be the blatant disrespect of this child and for the law is what it appears to be. For justice must not only be done; it must appear to have been done.
