Looks like yearwood is the only person working in this useless incompetent impotent gov and that’s because he is forced to work because of all these murders and crime it is so common place now that the people of Belize are numb from all the crime I say out with barrow ism out out with barrow ism.
it seems like inspector yearwood himself is bored when reporting the incidents, maybe a replacement will be necessary. his morale seem at the often low. please help him before its too late!
It is a shame to listen to the radio and every day all we can hear is about crime, Is the government doing something in concern? The police should do their work like patrolling the town so they can stop the crime and get those crimals in Gail.
