A recent report of an American woman caught with narcotics at CJIA, brings some questions to mind on the way the GPF investigates crime. The woman spoke of staying at two different hotels and meeting certain contacts in Guyana. Who are these people that contacted her and bought her shoes?
Did anyone at the store know or have a description of the man purchasing so many shoes? Why these hotels were used and who paid for the rooms? Did the GPF speak to the U.S. about who in the USA sent this woman to Guyana? Why no attempt to work with overseas police to follow persons leaving with narcotics when they arrive in their country?
It would make more sense to follow some of these mules to their bigger bosses, if we can make a significant dent in this trade. Finally, surely the GPF have some idea of who some of the local big bosses are and could do a better job through undercover work and stings to at least bring one of them to justice. It is hard to believe in a small country like Guyana, that we are unable to better monitor some of these foreign mules and drug dealers. Is the government accepting too many excuses and low expectations in dealing with some crimes?
