RAS TOO STR8
RASTA EXPELLED FOR BEING STRAIGHT? – Man claims classmates made advances at him
Crystal Harrison, Star Writer
A 35-year-old rastafarian male student is claiming that he was expelled from his school because he is heterosexual.
Vavadean Dennis recently told THE STAR that in a class of about 24 male students, he was pressured by a group in the class who constantly made sexual advances at him.
“About 20 times dem mek sexual advances at me and a tell me seh I must change my heterosexual ways. I got expelled because dem call me into a meeting and they didn’t even ask me anything, dem just start attacking me saying that mi come fi mash down di school.”
THE STAR understands that Dennis who is pursuing a certificate in plumbing at a Kingston training institute, had several confrontations with administrators at the school.
However, it climaxed last Thursday as he was called in a meeting and told to apologise to his teacher for some recent disrespectful remarks; failing to apologise, Dennis was given a one-week suspension.
compromising position
“Just because me tell dem seh mi nuh want nuh man feel me up, di teacher run me out of the class. When I am in class doing my work, there is a group of guys who try to get me in a compromising position. There was this one time, this 18-year-old youth tried to come up between my legs and so I had to create a scene in the class and all of a sudden mi hear dem a seh mi refer to my teacher as ‘teacher bwoy’.”
He further stated, “sometimes you will look over one side of the classroom and you will see some of the boys exposing them private parts. There was this other time, this next male student was wheezing in my ears, dem even threaten me saying that dem ago hurt me and I want to know if the teachers dem never hear that.”
“I was expelled. Dem call me inna a meeting saying that they are giving me an ultimatum and that I should apologise to the teacher and to the class but I don’t do anything, and I don’t see dem doing anything about these boys who are making sexual advances at me.”
In the meantime, when contact was made with the coordinator at the school, she told us that Dennis was not expelled, instead he was asked to apologise to his teacher and given one-week suspension.
“Dennis is a student who can manage his schoolwork, however, the only problem we have with him is that he is extremely homophobic. Once you are a part of any school you have to interact with other students, and if a male student even walk too close to him, it is a problem and he starts to behave boisterous. It is not the first time a rastafarian has enrolled in the school, but this is the first time we have had complaints about homosexuals causing trouble at our school. We have no evidence of what Dennis is complaining about.
She further lamented, “He needs help, we have tried with him. We are here to help and offer training; but we cannot offer more than what we were equipped to offer. He needs some psychiatric help.”
IMF CHIEF UPDATE
Dominique Strauss-Kahn: Ex-IMF boss wins New York bail
Dominique Strauss-Kahn has been granted bail by a judge in a New York court, after being formally charged with trying to rape a hotel maid.
Mr Strauss-Kahn had earlier resigned as the International Monetary Fund’s boss.
His lawyers said he was honourable and would not try to abscond. Prosecutors said he had “incentive to flee”.
Supreme Court Justice Michael Obus imposed $1m cash bail and said there must be 24-hour home detention, with an armed guard and electronic monitoring.
The judge said one armed guard must be deployed at all times, at Mr Strauss-Kahn’s expense, and the defendant must surrender all travel documents. In addition to the $1m (£618,000) cash bail, a $5m insurance bond would also apply.
Mr Strauss-Kahn will spend a fourth night at the notorious Rikers Island prison on Thursday before the bail papers are signed.
He will appear in court again on 6 June, when he will formally enter a plea. He has denied all the accusations against him.
‘Life of ease’Mr Strauss-Kahn’s wife, Anne Sinclair, was in court for Thursday’s hearing.
The Frenchman – who was not wearing handcuffs or shackles, but was flanked by four police officers – smiled at her as he entered the Manhattan courtroom.
The prosecution said the $1m bail offer was “unreasonable”Mr Strauss-Kahn had been denied bail at an earlier hearing on Monday.
But defence lawyers said the prosecution’s bail position was unfair and not consistent with the law.
The prosecution said Mr Strauss-Kahn, 62, had left the alleged crime scene with “unusual haste” and that any bail arrangement would be insufficient.
The judge asked for details of Mr Strauss-Kahn’s financial situation.
The defence said he had a net worth of roughly $2m and offered $1m bail.
Prosecutor John McConnell said this was “unreasonable”, adding: “We are in possession right now of only one passport. We simply don’t know what other documents he has access to or could get.”
He said Mr Strauss-Kahn had the means to live “a life of ease and comfort” in parts of the world “beyond this country’s jurisdiction”.
But Mr Strauss-Kahn’s lawyer, William Taylor, said: “The prospect of Mr Strauss-Kahn teleporting himself to France and living there as an accused sex offender, fugitive, is ludicrous.”
After the ruling, Mr Taylor said: “We want to express our pleasure that the judge has made this decision. It’s great relief to the family to be able to have him with them.”
Anne Sinclair arrives for the court hearingMr Strauss-Kahn has now been formally charged following a grand jury hearing, attended on Wednesday by his accuser, a 32-year-old originally from Guinea in west Africa.
The charges set out by the New York district attorney’s office included four felony counts – two of criminal sexual acts, one of attempted rape and one of sexual abuse – plus three misdemeanour offences, including unlawful imprisonment.
Manhattan district attorney Cyrus Vance said Mr Strauss-Kahn had been indicted on all the charges presented to the grand jury.
The incident allegedly took place at New York’s Sofitel hotel on 14 May.
Mr Strauss-Kahn earlier announced his resignation from the IMF.
In a statement posted on the IMF website late on Wednesday, he said he had resigned with “infinite sadness” but wanted to “devote all my strength, all my time, and all my energy to proving my innocence”.
His resignation has sparked debate about his successor.
Leading voices in Europe say another European should head the fund.
A number of figures have voiced support for French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde.
THIS BRING TEARS TO MY EYES…IS THIS MERMAID FI REAL?
Walters, 34, a native of Jamaica who has a United States passport and resides in New York was nabbed at Terrence B. Lettsome International Airport on the morning of April 27 with 2.08 kilos of cocaine which is worth some US$208,000.
The woman who was remanded to prison, pleaded not guilty to unlawful possession of cocaine, unlawful possession of cocaine with intent to supply another and unlawful importation of cocaine.
Walters, a mother of three children, said she intends to seek legal representation.
She told the court that she came on vacation and never expected this to be the outcome of her vacation in the BVI.
“…And this is the outcome of my vacation. I miss my children, they are home and I am the only provider for them. I have been working since I am 17 years old and I am asingle parent. I don’t know anything about drugs, how to package or sell drugs. I just want to go home to my kids…This trip was offered to me and I didn’t know anything about drugs,” the woman told the court.
Prosecutor Sarah Benjamin told the court that the crown objects to bail because the woman has no ties to the BVI and from information gathered, this is her first time to the island.
Benjamin also told the court that authorities have no information as to why Walters came to the BVI and who she came to or intended to visit. The Prosecutor told the court that her return ticket was dated May 4, 2011.
Meanwhile, the allegations stated that on April 27 around 10:30 am, Walters arrived in the BVI via LIAT flight 310 from St. Lucia. However, acting on information received from Customs officials in St. Lucia, she was detained and cautioned by Deputy Commissioner of Customs Dean Fahie. Fahie then questioned her in the presence of other Customs Officers in relation to her checked luggage which was a black and blue nylon travelling bag.
Officers upon checking the bag found four sealed transparent plastic bags which were each wrapped in blue coloured carton paper and contained a white powdery substance suspected to be cocaine. Benjamin told the court that the substance was found in a sealed compartment of the bag and in order to retrieve it, officers had to cut away part of the bag.
She was then taken to the Road Town Police Station where she was further questioned.
Walters will return to court on June 9.

The 24-year-old unemployed Bahamian man, Ashmeade Thompson, told the Montego Bay Resident Magistrate’s Court that he made the stop to see Kartel before seeking some kind of legal status in Jamaica.
He first made his way from Montego Bay to a club in New Kingston where he heard Kartel frequented, even while he told the court he was running for his life from men who had forced him to come to Jamaica on a boat to pick up drugs.
He said he was threatened by drug dealers who frequented his mother’s shop in the Bahamas and was recruited to travel with two others to Jamaica.
He said he landed in Montego Bay on April 27, but soon after fled from the men and found his way to Kingston.
While there he said he sought help and was introduced to someone whom he described as an immigration supervisor who stamped his passport while they were in a Chinese restaurant on Knutsford Boulevard.
He pleaded guilty with explanation to uttering a forged document and illegal entry.
Acting Senior Resident Magistrate Carolyn Tie sentenced him to two months in prison on each count.
