View Full Version : Alleged abuse of prisoners
lynette 02-06-06, - 12:26 PM The people who work at the prison say that them photos fake. Mind you we know they did half kill them fellas up there after the incident, the prison officers say they dont recognize the room in the photos and you cant see the faces of the men so in reality those pictures could be from the real Abu Gravie (if thats how you spell it) for all we know. Plenty of us web savvy now you know.
canewry 02-06-06, - 12:47 PM One of the photos was just on the ZNS news and, unbelievably, the huge concern is who took the photo and how!! I agree this is an issue...but are they not missing the point? Surely they should be more concerned as to whether those prisoners were indeed left in the condition shown in the photo...naked, beaten and bleeding.
If in deed the pictures are the Bahamian prisoners who tried to escape...it proves and strongly suggest that Rahmming must go! He must leave immediately. The pictures may even suggest that such abuse have been happening at the prison for years, forcing and impelling prisoners to escape. Perhaps even compelling them to kill to ensure their freedom. If that is the case, the question now is who actually is responsible for prison officer Bowles death?

say what you mean and mean what you say...this reminds me of fred mitchell and the "fake email" How stupid do you think we are- especially me! Do you Believe everything Bahamian authority tells you or suggest?- make up your mind them niggers got beat now they trying to do a cover up and say it een real...didnt a few days ago someone said that that area was a maximum security area and it would have been kind of hard to get back there...now noone knows what it is...my arse. Yes Rahming must go but he gattie take a few a his subordinates with him. and to think that bible beating mother pratt stand up for lies and hypocrisy...the shame...yall see why I dont go to church!
..yall see why I dont go to church!
and i tought was cause you is a madslim .. i mean muslim ..
Tafadhali 02-06-06, - 03:09 PM I hate to see a seemingly bright individual like youself go down this road.
The issue is this:Did the prison officers had the right to beat those prisoners to a pulp while in lawful custody? Did the police officers had the right to beat your friend when interrogating him?
If the answer is no, what is the problem then? I am not interested in your political games. The prison officers and the police are wrong in both instances, the police for beating the crap out of your friend and the prison officers for beating those inmates into what appear to be a comatose state.
The fact that you know that police abuse was going on for a long time and you didn't condemn them is rather ridiculous.
You should be leading the concern members on this board in highlighting abuse from any body or institution! Or your die hard support for your political masters clouds your judgements?
And if thats the case I cry shame on you. You should be outrage if only for the way your friend was treated by police officers!
there you have it folks! justifiable beating. kill my dog i beat your cat- royal bahamian style- almost kill him.
even if its not in the job description... beat him
your reward is if you escape...a good beating
These people are human beings, you cant just beat people becuase you feel like it...what is so different about this and slaves and their masters...we have to do better if we want to be taken seriously in the free developed world. we have to do better.
yes these people may be in the custody of the prison but they dont own them and you cant beat all over people humanities...what happens when they fight back...then what?

why would you think something like that... is it b/c of my strong afrocentric views...my acceptance of my blackness...views? If so, why are you so extreme when you question what you dont understand? and you have to remember I went to an HBCU...I appreciate my experience ever so much.
all muslims im sure arent into blowing up people and all that...you need to get out more.

Tafadhali 02-06-06, - 03:28 PM I find it interesting that the same voices that were so concerned that these prisoners had murdered a prison officer last week are now so strongly on their side.
Don't get things twisted I don't advocate suspects being beaten or even convicted persons in general. I may have sounded harsh earlier but I am not calling for these prisoners to be beaten. The thing is though, I don't care if they are. Personally if they sustain injury I don't care either, they are around to recover from those injuries, some other people aren't. They stabbed to death an unarmed prison officer who they had already tied up. The police should have shot them dead in the streets wherever they found them, then maybe everyone who is so concerned for their well being could cry for their families.
I have many friends who are police officers and one who is a prison officer, I'd rather see something bad happen to these inmates than the people I know. Regards the government finding out what the majority of Bahamians' feelings are on this issue, most people might be a li'l sorry for them but ultimately they believe they deserve it.
I still maintain the stance that Officer Bowles died heinously and those people should be dealt with under the full extent of the law...not get a bloody beating because of their recapture.
you should abhor Perry Christie (my anti-PLP rant you knew it was coming) for making a mockery of that mans funeral and he knew the death penalty was tied up until we heard back from the privy council- and the weak and insecure dumbarse couldnt even stand behind his own words he said a cleric said this (and I thought bible beaters were in the business of spreading love), but I digress.
its not about the prisoners...its about humanity...respect for the law...that's taking the high road even when you dont want to do it. you cant justify that kind of stuff, its not right its not right its not right. it has no place in a free developed Bahamas.
