CoP Collins should have been sent home for ‘Breach of Trust’- Julio S. Henry
According to Julio S. Henry aka ‘Sam’, while on his show Speak out BVI on ZBVI 780 AM on October 11, 2022, the Police Commissioner, Mark Collins, should have also been sent home for Breach of Trust over the controversial and damaging ‘Police in Paradise’ video, since it was potentially damaging to the territory’s reputation, which its financial services and tourism industries heavily depend on.
The Royal Virgin Islands Police Force (RVIPF) announced on October 11, 2022, that Director of the International Affairs Secretariat Najan Christopher was charged for Breach of Trust and False Assumption of Authority.
‘Hypocrisy’
According to Mr Henry, the arrest and charging of Ms Christopher while the Commissioner of Police gets off scot-free is “confusing” to him.
“It exemplifies the hypocrisy in our system to see people like Najan who was doing her job at the time, in the capacity of her job, now being vilified and charged for doing her job, but the Police Commissioner, who was involved in a very despicable situation. He was engaged, he granted permission to an outside agency in the United Kingdom to come into the territory and he himself assisted in putting together a videotape to basically discredit and destroy the reputation of the territory. But he wasn’t sent home for breach of trust,” Henry pointed out.
Guest on the show and local activist Melissa M. Potter interjected that the information used in the Police in Paradise video was sensitive information and which was supposed to be used in an ongoing investigation. “Where is his charge?” she also asked.
Mr Henry opined that only the Commissioner of Police would have had the authority to release footage of such a ‘heinous’ crime to a civil agency, yet he was not reprimanded.
The footage in question was of a fatal shooting at Fish Bay on March 16, 2021.
‘People wake up, what is wrong with us?’ Melissa M. Potter
“On the same hand, the Police Commissioner, weeks before, was engaged in a video destroying or trying to destroy the reputation and paint the Virgin Islands as a gangland, drug-infested, murdering place.
“And what did our Governor say, Mr John Rankin say? He said it (the video) was unacceptable. But that’s it. [Rankin is saying]; ‘he [the Commissioner] is with me and I’m going to protect him’. But at the same time, here is law enforcement enforcing law on our citizens of this territory. If that doesn’t enrage you, I don’t know what will ladies and gentlemen,” Henry said.
Meanwhile, Ms Potter said it was time that the people of the Virgin Islands wake up before it is too late.
“What will it take for our people to get enraged? Not criminally enraged, but united, come together and decide this must stop. It is more than time. People wake up, what is wrong with us?” Potter stated emphatically.

Naja created, under official seal and her hand, a document that she did not hold the right to compose. She in effect provided a false letter of credence, which usually only is provided by the head of that state, a state secretary or in the case of the OT, the Governor or Deputy. This is where she breach the public trust.
Making dumb videos is not a crime, but making false documents you do not legal have the right to produce is.
I have no personal hate in my heart against you, but don't let the your middle name (S) means stupid.
Don't forget this truth, the "hitman" also can get hit by other hitmen. I am trying to advised you correctly.
The video makes the BVI look bad but it is the truth.
How many young fathers were gunned down leaving their young children behind. Some of the murders still unsolved.. How may times some of the young men were chased after, by boat, helicopter etc with drugs on board. They try dumping tem so they won't get caught with them.
Yet you have the nerve to ask that question. I'm from right here and I am black. Right is right, wrong is wrong. You all need to stop. Some of the parents benefitting from some of the pics their young sons are doing so they turn a blind eye.
