In reply to Emir

I was gonna install a display by his store tomorrow,he gave me a spot to advertise my product on the main road side of his property,no charge..Main road Cunupia no charge!!

He was really becoming a businessman,the other guy who died(not the killer) in the crossfire was a good friend of mine in my partying days,he just passed to wash his car and check robo...Trinidad is a funny place and everyone one mixes and sometimes those guys can help you when the police can't..and when I mix with such people I try to make them go my way,I so defy the 'birds of a feather' theory it's not funny,I myself have made about 20 serious dread men register and pursue legitimate business.

Robo was no saint in the past but he was really trying,and always sought peace and legit business for his area,you cant smoke drugs or drink by his premises,some little idiot half his age did this for ghetto rank,he took him with him though,went out like a boss.

In reply to bravos

I am really confused bravos.

No saint?

Can you explain to me who this Robocop fella is?

In reply to nick2020

Was a kidnapper before kidnapping was crushed,a big time hussler turned defacto boss of an area,did his ting coming up but as he grew older he pursued legit business and always tried to promote peace among rival gang factions,he was a Muslim too..an ole school boss who maybe helped to turn it up in the past but one who was trying his best to keep things peaceful for a long time..he never ran away from his business place,never hid and always said if they want him they know where to find him,well respected among the older citizens of the area who maybe relish a time when Robo was the only problem in their area..an old school gangster who showed respect to older citizens families women community etc..but if a man was giving trouble in the area and had to go well he ain fraid that either..

In reply to bravos

Why was he not in jail?

In reply to bravos

In reply to nick2020

He won all his cases...and I'm telling you the man was encouraging business in his area and wasn't tolerating open wutlessness..he was better at this stage among many..

I'm giving it to you as it yet you coming up with your own little theories..I never said I didn't expect something like this to eventually happen,dem fellas have serious pasts but de man was holding his corner kinda well at this stage of his life that's all..he was no rich untouchable,he was very touchable..

And people have been charged for Dana's murder if you didn't know.

In reply to bravos

You think they know who the killer (Killers) are?

I hope this doesn;t result in another round of counter killings among the two major gangs -re the Rastas and the "Muslims."

In reply to bravos

In reply to bravos

In reply to Emir

He killed one of the killers,he from a couple streets down..Bagaloo trace ..lowlife street level ting...robo wasn't about that..and apparently is 'Muslim' vs 'Muslim'..these gangsta idiots confused..

Oh that's the next spike right there,before this there were only 2-3 murders for the whole week..I go anywhere in T&T but I'm staying away from that area for a while...it gonna tun up...expect plenty lowlife murders over the next couple weeks..

In reply to nick2020

Case..

In reply to bravos

I know I won't hold my breath.
I dun see who went to court with the accused.

In reply to bravos

Easy for someone like me to comment from thousands of miles away, but he does not sound like a wallflower himself, and it's hard to find much sympathy for him.

This is what I unearthed from a simple google search:

Robocop through the years

Excerpts:

In reply to Verstehen

I know but the point is he was better than those who just kill anyone and turn up a whole area...of course he would kill another low life...but he was a good tool on the ground,even the police says he was good for the area right now in his last iteration.,it's true because from his death more spin-offs and factions would form..they already showing how unruly they are by killing him.

Of course his day would've come not denying that,but his death is a bad thing for the ground..simple.

In reply to bravos

There was a time when Chadee ran d whole country and murders were low. Den Chadee fell and the other "community leaders" took over. When they began falling the idiots that replaced them began killing indiscriminately.

There is evil, pure evil and lesser evil. Robocop in the lesser category. With his fall someone from the pure evil category will rise.

Enterprise go be hot for a while.

In reply to Jabari18

Thanks Bari,I know a man like you would come and clear it up for who ain know...

In reply to Jabari18

But how can someone justify that a guy who should be in jail is not because he is not as bad as the rest?

I would feel really bitter when I end up in jail for teifing a mango while...

Your country will have a lot of issues if it is so blatantly two forms of justice.

In reply to bravos

In reply to nick2020

I am not justifying anything. I am laying out the situation as it is.

In reply to Jabari18

Now Abu Bakr's son stabbed!

Retaliation?

In reply to Jabari18

In reply to VIX

The politician?

Jeez. I hope not. Coz dat is war from west to central. Hopefully dem in south dont get testy

In reply to Jabari18

yeah, Fuad

In reply to nick2020

He not justifying either. Robo didn't win his cases because he was a nice guy. He won because the evidence couldn't convict him in court. The other information is based on our historical understanding of the circumstance

In reply to VIX

Nobody goin and stab fuad by accident or mistaken identity. Daz a message being sent

In reply to bravos

Ok.

In reply to Jabari18

Jabs can you really say based on what bravos posted that he is not exhibiting "mom in the courtroom" behavior?

In reply to nick2020

The man making my point.

In reply to nick2020

"He is not so bad, he me fren"

In reply to nick2020

Here's an example of the legitimate business he was involved in.

He was never convicted becos witnesses and/or police always either suffered from temporary convenient amnesia, or the witnesses turned up dead.

Trinis have gotten to the point where we rather live with the gang leaders we know who already in control and have a murder rate of 400-500 annually, because past experience has taught us that when they get killed, the reprisal killings and all out gang war that follows will make us long for the days of only 400 murders.

Jabari mentioned the Dole Chadee era, who was hanged in 1999; murders were in single digits annually back then. We also had the Mark Guerra era, who was murdered in the early 2000s. In both cases murders increased exponentially after their deaths.

The best ice cream in the world was by Robocop.

He got what he deserve.

Say what allyuh want,maybe he desreved to die long time, but the fact is ole school men like Robo kept worse men at bay..not asking allyuh..

In reply to steveo

You guys always twist up people comments eh...everybody in T&T know men like that,it's part of survival...many times men like that help people like allyuh get back their cars,jewelery,money even dey family etc..

Easy to sit behind a sticky keyboard and monitor and talk sterile stuff and sheltered..

Maybe robo deserved to die for past transgressions ,but as late as yesterday he kept things in check in his area and that's a fact,he just couldn't handle this new surge.

In reply to bravos

I am not here challenging you on that bravos. But I think the idea that those people are "good" for society because they keep worst people at bay is a condemnation of society.

In reply to nick2020

In reply to nick2020

I don't know he killed anyone btw..and like I said the man was changing..can't people change? Ok judge, jury and executioner..

In reply to bravos

Man changing - WTF.

He did his shyte, now he pays for it.

He cause a lot of hurt on people. F..k him. One less rat to deal with.

In reply to ToTrini

The man was changing bruh! Dog study all dem machine guns and ammo in his house. ....he was changing! !!

In reply to ToTrini

All I sayin is that it would be worse with him not there in Enterprise,more advantage that's all.

In reply to Disciple

Not funny for the people living in that area though...I expected a cache,you surprised,is friggin war in Enterprise wah you think it was ? lol allyuh mad yes..

Sometimes I an all wish I coulda own 2 AR-15 for defence too,plenty out there...

Can someone summarize this trini badman?

del

The killer had an outstanding bill at Robo's grocery too,lol ungrateful..

In reply to Dan_De_Lyan

Like all others,they eventually go out in this fashion.

He had the country hot with kidnappings in the early 2000's..he never kidnapped women as a rule,he stopped when Gov't cracked down with new legislation policing methods incl AKS Squad and interception of communications,and an all out assault on kidnappers with many being killed and jailed for life etc.

As any other Trini badman he dabbled in every hussle on the larger side of the scale as an opportunity presented itself. He was what is considered an 'old school' gangsta with some old fashioned morals and ethics and liked and respected by older citizens,women and children of his area ,as a law abiding decent citizen you stood a good chance if post kidnapper Robo was on to you,worst might happen is that he may end up your unlikely acquaintance as he was a very curious and communicative fella when it came to business despite his slight speech impediment,he was very interested in construction and foods business such as bakeries restaurants etc. He was attempting to make his business into a mini mall with all of the above.

He became very active as a political tool by a certain party during their past campaigns,he was not a heartless ruthless criminal and walked away from many altercations and situations where he could've easily resorted to street justice,he was forgiving to people who robbed him and deceived him etc,choosing instead to "laugh at dem","leave dem nah"..he also featured on many radio and tv talk shows 'via phone' or 'at the scene'..very dry and candid with his points,somewhat clever and witty with a quick panting laugh to back up a remark.

Lately there has been a dotish war fueled by a break away Muslim fashion calling themselves 'unruly ISIS' and for the past few months they have made Enterprise into a living hell for decent citizens,most of whom shop at Robo's grocery btw,nuff said...

Oh in fact the killer who he managed to kill yesterday had an old outstanding bill at the grocery it has been revealed.

People could try to make this into a simple case of a old criminal dead but this just leads to more fragmentation on the ground and more gang murders and that's more T&T MURDERS that we all have to take responsibility for internationally,so I know why I'm disappointed at Robo's demise at this time.

Many think they have the sophisticated view but in reality I'm looking way way beyond the simplistic satisfaction of the demise of someone who may be perceive as just another lowlife ..

In reply to nick2020

Craziness eh. Men defending big time criminals.
Leh someone murder one of them close ones then get off free a year later and turn legit, lehme hear them talk about oh he was good for so and so.

I know I probably gone off too much there but it needed to be said.

In reply to Andy99

I defending facts bemoaning another murder and the many more that would come because of this..I know the trends.

I defending a criminal and you celebrating other more ruthless criminals who carried out this act by justifying his death,little Andy99 you not ready padna..

In reply to bravos

Boy fuck you. Oh he was a good kidnapper, ah kidnapper with morals. Fuck you.

In reply to Andy99

Yeh asshole f@ck all these people too,you little sheltered internet prick.

Nobody denying he had a dread past and was destined for this end!! But we talking fucking present dynamics! The decent people of his neighborhood (the MAJORITY) saying exactly what I was saying,you know.. FACTS!

oh..AND F@CK REALITY WHILE YOU AT IT !! yuh lil baby wipe.

In reply to bravos

Do business persons in the area have to pay protection tax and share the profits of their business with the so called "protectors".

And how are the business persons guaranteed protection...what mechanism is used?

I am not asking about the merits or demerits of such a measure...just want to ascertain this report which will help put the whole scenario in context.

Robocop lives on.

9 children. Nuff seed to grow like weed.

In reply to bravos

In reply to Courtesy

Nah they couldn't do that with Robo ver 2.0 lol..but now pal Enterprise tun up..anything possible and I mean even mass murder with serious guns,,Robo had to have guns too man,not saying it was good as guns are our main problem,but so he made his bed so he had to lye in it,he killed one killer and we should be glad he did also.

Bro I'm fed up of people twisting facts as if they're my position,no I'm just stating facts..and giving people a real insight into the character and the wider situation on the ground..

In reply to nick2020

He has been in and out of Jail,but so have many people who are now folk heroes in the US,even men associated with the Colombian cartels like Medellin and Cali...men who hot up Mia,NY and LA...but dem was just decent US 'cowboys' I suppose,sold books,movies and interviews like mad after..showed their human side,well Robo had one too..but hey I expected this at some point..

In reply to bravos

I am reliably informed that business owners in Enterprise had to pay 'protection tax' as well as pass a share of profits to the protector.

I have done my fact check.

Now, if de business owners pay up, dais dere business...but what sort of community would encourage such lawlessness and further, did the police know of this?

A few cents thrown at a man and he sells his soul.
Aint the first time.

In reply to Courtesy

I am reliably informing you that he did that in his earlier days and not now or recently...he was actually shielding them now...that's the truth bro..

In reply to Andy99

In reply to bravos

Ok. I get you...Enterprise is kinda like Tivoli Gardens in its heyday.

In reply to Courtesy

Boy is only last year de place tun up so after Johnny retire..phew!

In reply to bravos

Sad brother. Residents will have to change de way dey do business. 'Unruly ISIS' will be a problem moving forward.

In reply to Courtesy

Word is dey planning a serious assault on them..Special forces..same men who send home some serious kidnappers and helped crushed kidnapping..

It's a strategy like once you in dat we coming for you all the time and yuh dead and nobody ain want no dealings with yuh caus yuh too hot and not good for 'business',works well when they enforce it...big bad men turn into kittens,it's an open secret..

In reply to Courtesy

Unruly Isis sound like it could be a carnival band.

In reply to Commie

Yes...they involve in 'Mas killings'.

In reply to bravos

In reply to Courtesy

Yeah boy dem men rel wukkin...thakn 'God' for them..

In reply to Courtesy

Robo on Ian Alleyne after his 2011 arrest/release during SOE 2011.

Ian Alleyne:"Tief from tief does make God laugh".
