I read in the Jamaican Gleaner today where the REVEREND Dr Roderick Hewitt yesterday called for tougher laws against corrupt officials in both the public and private sectors. We need more


than tougher laws we need corrupt politicians thrown in jail. For too long Jamaicans politicians stand by while the country rot with corruption and crime and they do nothing because they are so align with the criminals. It is not unusual to see criminals touting their political connections.


In the USA and many other civilized countries we see daily where politicians are marched off to jail after charged with corruption. Jamaica is one of the most corrupt countries on earth and we have never seen one high profile politician going to jail in several years. All one party does is blame the other party for corruption while they are meddling with it themselves.


It is because of the corruption  among police, politicians and other prominent officials while the local criminals are so brazen in their deeds. They commit crime because they know that the politicians are too corrupt to go after them. Too many criminals have secrets for politicians. Politicans use them to do their dirty work to get in power and when they get into power they promise protection as a return for the favor. This is why the police are crying out that their hands are tied in fighting crime. Unless we weed out the corrupt politicians from the island the crime and murder rate will only get worse.
