Dear Editor,
We are obviously buoyed by the optimism expressed by Senior Superintendent of Police Egbert Parkins about arresting the level of crime plaguing the second city. However, we wish to make a formal appeal to the member of Parliament and minister of state, Mrs Sharon Ffolkes-Abrahams and the Jamaica Public Service on behalf of the Retirement community.
This community is very mixed as residents range from the solid middle class to the very needy. The Retirement community has seen its fair share of crime along with the lottery scamming. That said, the community's safety is hampered by the pitch blackness at night as there are no street lights. As soon as dusk falls the community loses life and a sense of remoteness and isolation sets in.
We are humbly asking our MP and JPS for some assistance in getting the community better lit to support SSP Parkins' work and dissuade
would-be criminals.
