'Forbes seeking excuses'
published: Saturday | April 24, 2004

THE EDITOR, Sir:

I WOULD like to join those calling for Commissioner Forbes' removal.

In your issue dated 04/21/2004 the following was printed: "The Commissioner said Adams' comments had brought the more than 100-year-old Jamaica Constabulary Force to a 'new low'."

I would like to know if Forbes and his ranking colleagues believe that they are above being evaluated; also I would like to know how low in Forbes' opinion does the following printed in The Gleaner, Thursday, April 22, 2004 brings the JCF:

"Four men, including a sub-officer of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF), were detained yesterday by the narcotics police in what is said to be a joint international drug operation conducted in the parishes of St. Ann and St. James."

Mr. Forbes one of the detainees is a newly-promoted policeman. How do you feel?

I went back in the archives and re-read dozens of articles that have already brought the JCF to an unreachable depth. Forbes is not dealing with reality. He is seeking excuses for his ineptness as Mr. Forbes ­ Be REAL or LEAVE.

I am, etc.,

VINCENT WHITE
