      Assuming it's true that one of the robbers ****** work there. Then maybe it can be an act of revenge. A great company when they favor you. Can be hell when they dislike you...Won't be surprise if what you are alleging is true

        Plotting a robbery with intent to kill at random because of being disliked on a minimum wage job is the genius of a low life with a pea brain ,criminal mentality fostered by influences from upbringing looking for an excuse at demonstrating an inherent savagery.
        Birthing such monsters is irresponsible.

          Mind it there boy. Where you going with that birthing such monsters is irresponsible thingamajig? You think a mother knows in advance that she would be giving birth to a paedophile, a rapist, a cheating scum dog, a general disgrace to the human race, a cunu munu or a complete ignoramus before he is born? If so you don't think they would all have been dead? Like really so men sh!tty a$$es$ would never be born. Never disrespect mothers fool. You were born.

          Rite way needs to do better though. That aching wage/salary they are paying their staff is ridic. This going on for years anyway. Next to ntn while the top toppers cash in the big cheques. *rolls eyes*

          Priemier, so many constitutions need revising it’s not funny. BVI is in a crisis !!!!!

          By the way. That 20% tax y’all taking from our next to ntn salaries what is that being used for? I need some answers cuz the cost of living just keeps getting higher here and no increases no stiff measures being implemented for these profitable businesses taking advantage of a situation that can be controlled.

          Then again, is ayo so own these businesses or have shares. What am I even thinking asking this question. *rolls eyes*

      If that is true, they are going to some what believe she was involved and she may not be. How is it that a person would pull a robbery where your ****** works.

    That is how they" build us up because the BVI was nothing without them" to hear them tell it.
    And we must blow kisses at them and not entertain the fact that they originate from places they have made into Satan',s Den.

    How can this be another unsolved when a citizen is posting on here that they know who the mother of the robber is. Go tell the Police or you going to do like people who know who killed the young girl and not say anything. PRetty sick part of VI culture to hide and help criminals.

      Since you have now called out one of the robbers ****** by saying she work at the place that was hit, you lead the police to who it was. If you know that, why did you not contact the police rather than calling her out on line. You know how this place is, now his ****** is going to be getting side looks or might lose her job.

      You're right but the real issue is police are not confidential, i wouldn't like if i give you info about the perpetrator and couple hours later my name going around because i tried to the right thing but police can't keep nothing private and sometimes i know its not their intentions but when you tell just one 1 person outside of police that's it, your life is at risk, cause people can put a hit out on you and don't even know.

    ....******...getting side looks....lose her job
    She should if she does not turn him in or at the very least voluntarily, report what she knows.
    In addition,she should be arrested for not reporting her knowledge,stripped of any status of residency and deported if she is such a recipient.

      I was giving his ****** the benefit of the doubt. Now that I am hearing things on the street. Hey, if she knows that he was involved and not say anything or turn him into the police then she is just as guilty and be dealt with.

    if I have inside information on a crime don’t you think the person committing the crime will know if I speak to the police then I became a target.....

      My dear Jackie Chan, real mothers feel responsible for the human quality or lack thereof in their children. If her son has the propensity for murder and engaged in a plan for possible murder, and she is a mother with worth,concerned about her son, she would not rest until he is stopped..even if he has committed murder previously

    The fact that you have inside info is sufficient for you to be targeted. Waiting to see if you talk not knowing when would be nonsense.
    Giving up what info u have is your best protection and provides you with a clear conscience and living with yourself would be much easier.
