Cop dodges court as DNA shatters lie that arrested man had spliff
BY INGRID BROWN Associate Editor — Special Assignment [email protected]
Friday, May 17, 2013

IT took a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) test and 21 trips to the Spanish Town Resident Magistrate’s Court for Robert Brown to prove that a ganja spliff presented to the judge by the police was not his.
But that vindication was not before the 39-year-old was forced to flee his community, shut down his business and withdraw his son from a top high school as he spent the last two years cowering in fear for his life.
Today, although there is no longer any criminal charge hanging over his head, Brown said he is yet to pick up the pieces of his life as it was totally shattered by a lying cop whose threat to kill him sent him into hiding.
Brown, a resident of James Mountain just outside Sligoville, St Catherine, said on July 16, 2010 he was at his roadside cookshop preparing the daily low-budget menu when a group of policemen requested a search of him on the grounds that they smelt ganja. Brown said he admitted to the police that he smokes ganja but did not have any in his possession.
According to Brown, he was still taken to the nearby Sligoville Police Station for processing. It is then that things went awry after one constable accused him of “romping wid police” when he (Brown) held his ears to demonstrate that the name of the lane where he lives is called ‘aze hole’ (ears hole). Brown said the disbelieving cop became irate and began raining blows on him before slapping a ganja possession charge on him.
“Him put all him big shoes in me chest,” Brown recalled, adding, “when dem teck me up that day ah four pot me have on fire ah fry chicken back, sprat fish, and a cook soup and everyting bun up.”
However, when the matter went to court, Brown pleaded not guilty and was given a date to return.
Less than two months later, Brown said he was again at his shop when members of another police patrol searched him and found an unlit spliff in his possession. Brown said while he was at the Sligoville Police Station awaiting his bail to be processed, a female cop said: “See di man yah weh go court go plead not guilty”.
Brown said he told her not to discuss the matter as it was still before the court.
He said that by this time, the constable, who had earlier lied about him having a spliff, pulled his chair closer to him in a threatening manner. Brown said as he got up from the chair to speak with the policeman who was processing the bail, the constable shoved him so hard that he and the chair fell to the ground, leaving him with a huge gash to his head. As he fell to the ground, Brown said his hand touched the policeman’s mouth. That was when all hell broke loose as Brown said he was again savagely beaten by the officer.
Brown’s brother, Exton Brown, who had by then received the bail bond, told the Jamaica Observer that the document was immediately taken from him and torn up.
“After the police done beat him up, him say to me father, “Rastaman, ah figet me figet me did have me gun pon me.”
The police later took Robert Brown to the Spanish Town Hospital to treat his bleeding head and fractured arm. While there, Brown said, he told the doctor that his injuries were caused by “police brutality”, but that only made it worse for him as the cop again began to beat him.
“The police all ah draw me on the hospital floor and ah beat me,” Brown said, adding that he was later taken to the Spanish Town Police Station and charged with possession of ganja and assaulting a police officer.
When he appeared in court for the second offence, Brown plead guilty to possessing the spliff confiscated during that arrest and was fined $100. He, however, again plead not guilty to possessing a ganja spliff on the first occasion and for assaulting the officer. It was then, he said, that the policeman produced a spliff to the court, which he claimed Brown was smoking when he was first arrested.
However, a complaint to the cop’s superiors would be the beginning of the nightmare which turned his world upside as Brown said the policeman started to harass and further threaten his life. Fearful for his safety, Brown said he was forced to shut down his then lucrative cook shop, lay off the workers and go into hiding.
With no income, he was also forced to transfer his son from Calabar High School to Spanish Town High as he could not afford to keep him there, given the mounting legal cost to prove his innocence. In addition, he had to sell his motor vehicle to offset some of the cost.
But through it all, Brown said he was motivated to prove his innocence because of his son.
“Me remember the day when GSAT (Grade Six Achievement Test) result come out and him run come say him get him first choice. Me was so happy fi him, and to see that me had to deprive him of what him work so hard for, it really hurt me,” an overwhelmed Brown said.
“Is only now me get back a little joy because the other day me ah talk to him about going back to Calabar and him tell me say is not the school you go but how you perform, and ah that help me fi stop feeling so bad,” he said, adding that his son, who is now in grade 10, is preparing to sit two CSEC subjects this year.
During the numerous visits to court, Brown said he was frustrated at not being able to convince the court that he did not have a spliff on the first day he was arrested, as it was the police’s word against his. However, it was after the 12th trip to the court that Brown’s nephew, Jermaine Hunt, gave him the brilliant idea of requesting the court to order a DNA test.
“One day we there talking and me say how me going to prove me innocence that me never have no spliff that day, when everybody know say me is a smoker, and that is when me nephew suggest that me could do a DNA,” Brown told the Observer.
“Even him own lawyer did seem to think he was guilty until I came up with the idea of the DNA,” his nephew added.
“The day when me lawyer tell the judge that I want a DNA, even she smile and say well, that normally happen in the US but not in Jamaica. When she say dat, the police dem had dis smile on dem face until when she say ‘but I will grant it’. The smile wipe off ah dem face immediately,” Brown recalled.
Brown said he managed to scrape together the $43,000 to pay for the DNA to be done at Caribbean Genetics on the University of the West Indies, Mona campus in Kingston.
The police, Brown said, never returned to court after the DNA was ordered, despite being subpoenaed some six times by the judge. On the cops’ seventh no-show, the judge dismissed the case for lack of prosecution.
A few weeks after this decision, Brown received the DNA results, a copy of which was obtained by the Observer, which clearly excluded him from being in possession of the illegal substance.
Brown said he feels cheated out of the opportunity to be vindicated in the court and for action to be taken against the lying cop, who has since been promoted to corporal.
Although he has recently reopened his business, Brown said he is still fearful for his life, especially since his complaints to the Police Complaints Authority resulted in the removal of the policeman from the division.
Brown said he filed the second complaint after the cop again visited his cookshop, requesting a search, even after the matter was disposed of in the court.
Despite being fearful of any further repercussion from the police, Brown said he is telling his story not only to highlight the injustice but to show that there are a lot of innocent persons who have been framed by the police.
“If dem can bring a spliff before the court say is mine, then you can just imagine what other evidence them plant on others,” he said.
Brown, who said he has been told that he was the first person to request such a DNA through the Jamaican courts, said he is also delighted to know that he was able to pave the way for others who are so wronged.
“Me know say him may still come after me and me tell everybody; so if anything happen to me, them will know, but I want this opportunity to tell the world that I was speaking the truth that me never have any spliff that day,” he said.

UNEDITED:

Four days ago my girlfriend informed me that she is pregnant,

I didn’t believe and I had to take her to the hospital to clear all doubts,

Lo and behold the test result shows she is 3 months pregnant.

I could remember instantly that we had s3x about 1 month and 2 weeks ago;

Now I’m confused because from logical reasoning it shows that the pregnancy is not mine, but she says she hasn’t had s3x since one year ago when I broke her virginity until about 1 month and 2 weeks we recently had s3x.

I really love her so much but I don’t know what to do, Please I need serious advise only

WTF AFRICA- HOW MINISKIRTS TERRORIZE PASTORS IN CHURCH

Do you want to see a thigh-revealing mini or a figure-hugging tube in its rightful size and colors?

A visit to your nearby parish will not disappoint. Not in this era where uniforms, conservative formal dresses and waist-cloths, popularly known as Zambia, have been elbowed out by mini-skirts, skinny jeans and figure-hugging apparel.

Such is the fashion craze in churches today.

Men are also not to be outdone.

They are donning eye-popping short trousers, vests and jackets with short sleeves and spotting Mohawks. Churches now resemble fashion shows where congregants have replaced Bibles with iPads, iPhones, iPods and tablets.

Tithing is now being done via EcoCash, WhatsApp and Facebook. The congregates are now in the habit of reading scriptures loaded on their phones, iPads and what have you.

These electronic gadgets have become handy since pastors can now send the scriptures way before the service unlike previously when defacing Bibles with handwritten notes was the order of the day. Nowadays church-goers simply log on their tablets and click on the Bible verses with much ease.

Indeed, so much has changed that in other churches they have themed dress codes to suit a particular event. Ever heard of the African wear, Sunday Best, all-white Sunday and formal Sunday, to mention but a few of these themed days?

Somehow things have gone haywire with women now dressing in mini-skirts, net laces and pantyhose with legs criss-crossed while seated in the front rows. Others have a penchant to flash their body piercing and tattoos.

Oddly enough, in the midst of all this are women and men of God are not tempted when they see these beautiful women with long eye-lashes saying Amen to every word they preach.

Ever imagined how the pastors feel about these revealing dresses when they are busy preaching about sanity and morality, which came about after God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah having been incensed by the levels of immorality in that land.

What boggles the mind of many is why do women who dress skimpily opt to sit in the front row?

Primrose, a member of a local Pentecostal church, said there was nothing wrong in wearing a mini so long as one was abiding to other Christian principles of good morals, faith and serving others.

“You should not judge me by what I wear, but the services that I give to the house of the Lord and how well I serve my community in addition to being a child of God based on my Christian virtues,” she said while dressed in a black short dress that left nothing to the imagination Dr Goodwil Shana of Word of Life said the Bible admonished women to dress modestly.

“If you ask me what it means to dress modesty, I believe there should be a balance in church since a church is an open place for everyone.

“Drunks come to church and so are the prostitutes because from the beginning Jesus was accused of preaching to sinners.

“So while the church should be open to anybody, all those that believe in Jesus Christ and have seen the light should dress appropriately.

However, I cannot prescribe what women should wear but whatever it is that they want should exemplify dignity. We are not supposed to judge a church by its people.

“If you read 1 Timothy 2 vs 9 and 1 Peter 3 vs 3 you will see how women should dress. They should respect their bodies since it is said the bodies are the temples of Holy Spirit,” Dr Shana said.

Pastor Godwin Chitsinde of Spoken Word Ministries said it was not right for people to dress skimpily.

“I believe people should dress in modest apparels and I don’t think a mini-skirt is modest. Suppose anybody visits our church seeking help and they are dressed skimpily they will be the odd ones out.

“We don’t accept that because every occasion has its own dress code this is why even in some hotels they are strict on dress. There is a reason why some churches have uniforms which they wear on different occasions.

“But maybe you need to interrogate further to see why some women are now wearing mini-skirts.

“You will be amazed to see that it is the wives of pastors who are at the forefront. The question is if the pastors’ wives wear mini-skirts what do you expect from the whole congregation when they are supposed to dress modestly and respectfully?” Pastor Chitsinde said.

Pastor Ruth of Christ Embassy said indecent dressing was not accepted in church.

“The word of God encourages people to dress decently. It’s very wrong for women to come dressed in mini-skirts because that would distract other people from worshiping.

“At our church we have lessons on how to dress and seat in public. However, since our main thrust is to win souls we obviously don’t preach against anyone’s dressing.

“Once they accept Jesus Christ as their saviour then they start dressing in a Christ-like manner. We are aware that people come to church for different things some to look for men or women others to get money but at the end of the day we want people to be saved and hopefully they transform through the Holy Spirit,” she said.

Bishop Trevor E. C. Manhanga aka “Muranda waMwari” said the form of dressing by women in the church today was a cause for concern.

“Indecency has now become the order of the day in the name of fashion. While I have no problem with women dressing fashionably there are certain norms that need to be observed.

“The word of God advocates for modesty and that is what women should aim for in the way they dress. Over-exposure of the breasts and thighs of women coupled with very tight or close-fitting attire is not something that women should wear to church.

“While I do not absolve men from their responsibility to maintain clear thoughts women must understand that men are primarily turned on sexually by what they see and in that regard the church should not be a place where men have to fight with wandering thoughts,” Bishop Manhanga said.

However, Bishop Nolbert Kunonga was of a different opinion saying church uniforms were of no theological significance.

“It is not an important dimension and it is of no theological significance. However, those who wear uniforms at church do so because they want to differentiate themselves from other denominations or because they want to look the same.

“The dress code does not impact on people’s salvation but rather just there to show that one belongs to this or that church,” he said.

Bishop Kunonga said church uniforms from the Anglicans or Catholics were common in Africa but it was not the case in the countries where the denominations originated from.
