I would like to see more of this action. I guess a good tip was the reason we caught this boat. st.Maarten can't not take any more immigrant. I walk or dirve the streets like everyone esle and wonder how all of these people land on SXM. How many of those signing up now for the Brooks tower amestty program can show that they came thru Juliana Airport.
we would always have immigrants looking for a better life, my fellow man, our social services are burdened, out school cla*ses are bursting form the seams, we are now building schools to house immigrants. Stop the flow until we can decide who we need and how much we need.

WHY ARE THEY KEEPING THE 11 YEARS OLD GIRL HERE. SHE SHOULD BE SENT BACK WITH HER MOM CAUSE W GUESS HER MOM WAS ON THE BOAT ALSO. WE HAVE ENOUGH PROBLEM HERE THAT WE CANT DEAL WITH, WHY TAKE MORE.

YES THEY ARE HUMAN, BUT EVERYONE SHOULD DEAL WITH HIS R HER OWN PROBLEM. IT IS BECOMING UNBARABLE

Immigrants should leave their children home-our schools cannot be burdened any longer.
So now what? the foster home what was set up to take care of children on the island without parents have to feed and cloth this immigrant child? The foster home is already burdened I am sure with our own that they have to work hard to find funding to keep the foster children fed, with school uniforms and proper beds, furniture etc and school books.
The child should be sent back to her country of origin. We are not a half way house.
BTW>>.the immigrants are lying...they were on their way here-MIA is not around SXM. They say this so they dont get prosecuted here. I am sure the human racketeers who make the money tell them what to say

This Comment is for "home", understand what you read before you comment, she's 11! she can't be in a police cell that's not even in a condition to house dogs, so she'll be staying at the i can fundation till her return back home, she won't be stay on th Island...

It is a fact that Dominica is now a major transhipment point for drugs and people. It has been so for awhile but has become much more active. Either the Dominican authorities are unable or unwilling to take control of the situation.
It was just a matter of time before the Agatha G was caught. Unfortuately the main cuplrit (the owners son) was not onboard on this voyage. His day and his brothers will come.
Haitians, Arabs, Asians and EC citizens all find it quite easy to move out of Dominica to SXM or the USVI. It is equally easy to transship drugs the same way.
